Sample order of fence


How To Plan
1. Create a sketch of the area you wish to install your fence (use sample above as a guide).
2. Establish all gate(s) and/or transition location
3. Determine number of sections; keep in mind that if a required section is less than 6', this will require the
section to be trimmed. Example: 20' of fence will require 4
sections (4 sections x 6' = 24', 4' must be trimmed to accommodate installation).
4. Determine the number of posts. Note - all gates must be installed with left and right gate posts only.
5. Enhance your design as you like by adding accessories such as scrolls, finials, ball caps, etc.
Before Installation

Consult your building department for local code requirements. Check with utility companies to locate
underground pipes, lines, cables, etc.
