  • Can 3 men install 1000 feet of Kentucky four board fence in one day without digging? This is how the pros build and install a strong wood fence without using concrete. With help from Mark from Swi Fence and Ryan Sloop from Sloop Fence, I'll show you how the pros avoid the worst part about installing a new fence. Digging the holes. We used pressure-treated 5/4" x 6" x 16' pine boards but usually fence installers use rough cut lumber. We installed over 260 feet in under 5 hours because of filming.

      It's not that hard. I replaced a rotten wooden one with a vinyl one over a couple of weekends. I rented a jackhammer to reuse the existing holes and poured concrete around the vinyl posts. I'm not that big and am developing tendonitis in my wrists so I used the 60# bags

    That’s a nice looking corral rail fence. I wish it was that easy in the west but we have to auger holes to set the posts. You’d never get them to drive into the ground here unless it was after winter rains and before the ground starts drying out. In summer months you’d be hard pressed to get steel t-posts to drive.

    What I gained from this tutorial: To get the perfect fence, use the imperfect family members as posts, drive them into the ground with sufficient force, and some time later you'll have a perfect fence. It's also quicker if you use a custom built machine. 😁👍

    You guys made it look easy. Good to see those nails. Screws are terrible for fences. They are brittle and more likely to break. That’s why we still don’t use screws for wood framing. Nails allow for slight movement and expansion and contraction of the wood

    Unfortunately, the fence pounder wouldn't work for most of my yard. I've go SO.MANY. ROCKS. From small ones to 300 lb ones, they're everywhere under my lawn. I found out a couple years after buying my house that across the street used to be a gravel pit, which lets you imagine just how many rocks are in my yard. I've been redoing my sprinklers for the past couple years and it's been horrible.

      Maybe put in posts with a ground screw (and place posts inside the screw? Depending on what type of rocks, a ground screw sometimes even can break larger rocks when going in.
      But I feel with you when needing to dig a trench... I had to use a large angle grinder with a stone disk in my yards at times as well when doing such work.

    Great Fence idea. We just moved to a small town and I have 100' x 135' lot. Needs a fence as I have 3 med sized dogs and 1 yorkie. I may have to improvise and place a board lower to the ground or use 5 or 6 boards to keep him in. But I love the clean lines of this fence and minimal materials. Now just to rent a post driver. LOL

    When two boards meet at the center of the post they have to share half the width of the post to be nailed or screwed in my case. Thats why I offset the runners/horizontal boards on the post that way you can screw them with 3.5" torc 25 exterior crosscut thread screws across the entire width of the post. Then I put fence posts about 2' in the ground and 6' above, with the fence boards 6" off the ground that way I get a 6.5' fence. Thats what I did for my courtyard fence. Came out great good.
