How To Install A Chain Link Fence?

If you have animals or children and are looking for a great, inexpensive way to keep them safe and protected while in your yard, you should consider installing an aluminum fence. Aluminum fences are a cheap, fast and easy way to keep the things you want in your yard and the things you do not want out. Aluminum fences come in panels when you purchase them and can be ordered from any Home Improvement store like Home Depot or Lowes. First you need to take an accurate measurement of the area you want to fence. The home improvement store will use your measurements to order the appropriate amount of fencing panels, posts, and fence post caps for your yard. Once the fencing material is delivered you will want to lay out the plan for your fenced area. The best way to mark your borders is to use landscape paint. String can also be used but can be tampered with. Place your post cap onto your post and secure it with a rubber mallet. If you have already marked your post holes you are ready dig them out and begin placing the posts inside. Be sure to use a quick dry cement so you can be sure your posts will stay in place. After you install your gate in the spot you would like it to be, make sure it works the way you want it to. Finally you can install the rest of your panels around the perimeter you have outlined. If you did not purchase fence panels that came pre then you will half to buy a roll of chain link fabric when you buy your posts and post caps. Using chain link fabric rolls do add additional time to your job but will also work for your fence. After you set your posts, you will need to apply the top rail of your fence between the posts and then unroll the chain link fabric. Slide a tension bar into the fabric, lift the fencing up to the fence, and attach the fencing to your posts. Make sure to cut away any excess chain link fabric and adjust all of your tension bars.
