Assembling the panel
STEP 1
Install first post with concrete (“Digging postholes” and fig. 1).
STEP 2
Slide the bottom rail into place at the bottom of the routed
post (fig. 2).
STEP 3
With the bottom rail placed, secure a U-channel to the center of
the post using the provide screws. The U-channel needs to sit
above the bottom rail. Set a screw every 20 inches (fig. 3).
STEP 4
Install the second post into the ground and temporarily secure
into place. Set the bottom rail into the second post and level.
(You will secure it with concrete in Step 6.)
Repeat Step 3 to secure a U-channel to the second post (fig. 4).
STEP 5
To build a panel with horizontal pickets:
Slide the first picket into the U-channels so that it’s parallel to the
bottom rail. Secure it into the channel of the bottom rail. Continue
installing each picket. The pickets feature a tongue-and-groove
design so that each picket fits securely into the one below it. Re-
peat with each picket until panel is complete (fig 5).
To build a panel with vertical pickets:
Slide the first picket into one U-channel so that it’s perpendicular
to the bottom rail. Slide the bottom of the picket securely into the
channel of the bottom rail. Continue installing each picket. The
pickets feature a tongue-and-groove design so that each picket
fits securely into the one next to it. Repeat with each picket until
panel is complete (fig 5).
STEP 6
When all pickets have been placed, secure the top rail to the top
routed hole in the first post. Working from one side to the other,
slide the rail over the picket(s). In order to fasten the rail into the
second post, shift the post slightly until the rail can be fitted. Once
the rail is securely locked in, the pickets will form a solid panel.
Backfill the second post with concrete and make sure it’s set
before moving down the fence line. This will always allow one post
to be anchored while each panel section is assembled (fig. 6). To
continue building your fence line, repeat Steps 1-6.
