Installation Guide
HELPFUL HINTS: HIGH WIND INSTALLATION
•
If post does not already have a concrete hole
from the factory, drill a hole at least 3/4" dia.
12" up from bottom of post. This will help
concrete get into post.
•
When gluing picket caps, place a thin bead of
glue inside the picket and press picket cap
into place.
•
Post caps should not be glued in the event
you want to upgrade to a different style. A
small amount of clear silicone on the inside
corner of post cap will secure cap to post.
•
Clean fence using a formula of 1/3 Cup
powdered detergent, 2/3 Cup household
cleaner and 1 gallon water. Rinse thoroughly.
•
For stain removal use either lacquer thinner
or soft scrub with bleach. Rinse thoroughly
with water after using either of these.

If the fence is over 6' tall or you are
located in a high wind area it is
mandatory that you will fill the inside
of the posts at least 22" above grade
with concrete AFTER THE PANELS ARE
INSTALLED. Prior to installing panels
into the posts tape the lower rail to
prevent concrete backflow.
