[H1064]How To Fence Post
by Jim Ames, Jim

There is a wide variety of Fence Posts available such as Antique Fence Posts, Copper Federal Globe Fence Posts, Corner Picket Fence by Ultra Last, Bamboo Fence Panels, Keystone steel wire 6220 U-Style Fence Posts, Panacea Classic Garden Fence Posts, Calvary Portable Fence Posts, Border Fence Posts, Deer Fence Heavy Duty Deluxe Posts, Decorative Patio Fence Posts, and Antique Fence Posts.

If you are using your fence to keep kids and animals out of your pool, you have a choice of Wood and Chain link fences.

Getting the Posts and fence up is not a simple or easy task and can take a couple of days or longer, especially without the right tool. No matter what type of fence you are planning to use, you will need the following items. The posts, obviously, finials or the fence post topper, posthole diggers, gate hardware, dry concrete, gloves, pliers, wheel barrel and possibly a nail gun and saw.

If you are replacing an existing fence, you obviously need to remove it first. And fill in any holes, since you will need to dig new ones for better stability. Now take your measuring tape and begin at the gate, working your way around and coming back to where the gate will be. Then take your measurements and divide the amount by 3. Three feet is a good amount of space between each post, making your fence sturdier.

So every three feet, put a marker of some sort, even the post itself. Now you need to have someone help you to run a string around the length to make sure it is even and has the shape you are looking for. Once this is done, you can begin digging each hole using the fence post digger. The gate can go up at this point.

Once the holes are dug, use your wheel barrel to go around and fill up each hole with the concrete. Once the holes are filled, you can then go back and pour water into each of them, and place the posts at this time. It is a good idea to use a heavy string to help hold the posts in position or even fence post braces that are available.

Getting the right tools and knowing the correct process before beginning is very important; I would even suggest a rough diagram of how you want it to look in the end.
