These add-on kits will only work in conjunction with another kit (Fence Kit With Top 4 in this case). Some of the hardware in your original kit will be reused or replaced with new hardware from this kit.
Notes:
- Posts are round galvanized inside and out, then black powder-coated
- No-dig sleeves are heavily galvanized inside and out for extreme long-life
- Ground sleeves go into the ground 30 inches
- The finished height of the fence posts is the height above ground (for example, 8 feet finished height is 8 feet above the ground once the sleeve and the post have been installed)
- All posts with ground sleeves can be installed permanently or made removable. No-dig ground sleeves get driven into the ground with a sledgehammer. Posts then slide inside the sleeve and lock in with a locking set screw (patent pending). To remove posts for seasonal protection or to move your fence: 1) cut fence ties holding fence to posts; 2) roll up fencing; 3) slide post up out of sleeve. To make posts permanent, tighten the locking set screw in each sleeve to prevent the post from spinning or coming up out of the post
- For rocky or heavily compacted ground, we suggest using a San Angelo digging bar to pilot the hole for sleeves (instructions with kit). You can also use a powered drill or hammer drill with our sleeve auger bit
- These fence kits are designed to be installed on level and flat areas. If you're installing this over an area that has a slope or is pitched in one direction, some cutting or modifying of the fence post height will be required. This may make the overall height of your fence shorter. For example, if you are installing in an area that slopes from higher to lower, to make the enclosure level, you would cut the front posts 1 inch, the middle posts ½ inch, and leave the rear posts
- These fence kits start with approximately 7 feet of overhead clearance. The side posts are 7 ½ feet out of the ground, but some space is needed for the framing and side bracing. Access gates are available separately; select 7-foot-tall gates or shorter for proper installed clearance
