T&G Privacy with Mid-Rail - 110 MPH sustained winds 
with gusts to 130 MPH
Step 1
  Reinforce each post to at least 
22" above ground with either an 
aluminum insert (prior to installing 
the fence) OR fill each post with 
concrete (after installing the fence) 
as shown in figure 1. If using 
concrete, be sure to tape off the 
rails to prevent it from flowing into 
the rails.
Step 2
  Install one #10 x 1" self-tapping 
stainless steel screw into the top 
and bottom of each 6" wide picket 
to secure the picket to the top and 
the mid-rails. Screws should be 
placed no more than 1" from the top 
or bottom of the rail. Be careful not 
to over tighten the screws. 
Step 3
  Repeat step 2 to secure the pickets 
between the mid-rail and the 
bottom rail.
Step 4
  Install a screw inside the post on 
each side of the top rail as seen in figure 2.
