What is fence tape and how to use it

It just so happened that any summer cottage construction begins with a fence. The newly minted owner wants to quickly protect his possessions from the penetration of outsiders, to fold and store there brought from building materials stores, but it’s just that the eye needs to get used to the space acquired in the property and start thinking through it layout. Very often, the construction of the fence occurs in two stages. The owner is building a temporary hut in order to quickly satisfy his first needs for fencing, assuming that only later, when he builds a house, he will also install a powerful and beautiful fence. But life makes its own adjustments to the plans of a beginner, and the temporary hut remains for a long time. And all because building a good fence is also a rather time-consuming task, and first of all, walls and a roof are needed, and the beds already require attention, and there is not enough money for everything.

But the equipment and technologies of summer cottage construction do not stand still, and now a fence tape has been invented in Poland, which allows you to quickly build a high-quality fence and keep it for many years.
