Apparatus plastic fence with bases

For convenience, the installation is distributed on several successive stages. The first of these is to prepare the ground. It is necessary to remove any foreign objects that will interfere.

Next is marking territory. With low wooden sticks or other convenient place devices we mark our future fence. If the fence is turning to the sets, it is better to use more peg at every turn for the accuracy of the result.

Mark up the installation location of the fence

We stretch through markup broad strong thread, such as nylon or twine. Mark the locations for doors and gates with paint or other visible means. You can not use colorful substances, if you will build the foundation. Enough not to stretch the thread in place structures.

For clarity, we use road marking paint

Plastic fence is mounted on a special support - pillars. To increase the strength you need to build a foundation. To do this:

• Dig a trench on a marking depth of 0.5 m. In the field for the pillars need to delve to 0.8 m. More than a quarter of the support should be underground for reliability. Hole for the column diameter must be 2 times greater than the post itself. The distance between the pillars is equal to the length of the fence section.
  

  Digging pits spade drill according to the markup or

• Next to each post should have several spacers. After setting all the poles it is important to check a plumb or level of verticality. If everything is in order, proceed to the next procedure.
  

  Install the column in the pit and align it horizontally and vertically

• Pour on the bottom 5-7 cm of fine gravel, which will take away excess moisture.
• The frame of the binding wire is better to do a pair of pliers to design was a little mobile. When welding concrete is too hard. Long and short ladders collected in a width of 20 cm, which connect the webs of 0.5 m, and they are laid into the ditch.
• The construction of the formwork. Its main task - is to prevent the ingress of water on the fence. But PVC fences are not afraid of moisture, so skip this step, or to build a low decorative foundation. Formwork or consists of planks or sheet SIR. Because of them, the sides look perfect. Every 2 meters drilled holes in the formwork for pipes that rainwater could easily drain. On each side of the structure needs to be strengthened, scoring stakes. Otherwise, the concrete will spread throughout the territory.
• Pouring concrete. Concrete was prepared in a ratio of 1 part cement 2 parts 2 parts sand crushed stone. The mixture was poured into a mixer and gradually add water. It is easier to use the services of companies who themselves will flood the concrete.

After a set of concrete strength proceed to the installation of the fence sections

The Internet already has a ready-made concrete foundations. Once the foundation is completely dry, and all redundant structure removed, proceed to install fence sections.

The concrete must be poured after the sections are installed fence

Lower fence rails are inserted as deeply as possible into the lower hole in the post. The top also installed. Reiling rasp hacksaw, so as not to stick out of the column.
