How To Install

Use a tape measure to determine the total width of the area where your fence and/or gate will be installed. Next, decide how you want to divide the space between fence panels and gates.

Example: A 10 ft opening could be configured with

• One 4 ft gate
• One 6 ft fence panel

Foundation Fence Supply systems are modular, allowing you to configure your layout to suit your space.

Mark the positions where each post will be installed, including:

• Gate posts
• Fence posts
• End posts
• Corner posts (if applicable)

Keep standard system sizes in mind:

• Fence panels: up to 6 ft or 8 ft wide
• Single gates: various widths available
• Double gates: larger openings available

Example: A 20 ft opening could use

• Double gate in the center
• Fence panels on either side

Planning your layout before installing posts ensures proper spacing and alignment.

Foundation Fence Supply systems are designed for flexibility:

• Slats can be cut to fit narrower openings
• Posts can be trimmed to achieve custom heights
• Panel widths can be adjusted during installation

This allows you to tailor the system to your exact project requirements.

Once your layout is finalized:

• Mark each post location
• Use spray paint, stakes, or string line
• Double-check measurements before installing posts

Accurate post placement is critical for a smooth installation.

Foundation Fence Supply posts can be installed using multiple methods:

In Concrete

• Recommended for maximum strength
• Ideal for fence runs and gates
• Most common installation method

Surface Mount (Base Plates)

• Mount posts on concrete slabs or footings
• Ideal for patios, driveways, and retaining walls

Wall Attachment

• Posts can be attached directly to a wall or structure
• Ideal for wall-to-wall installations
