Thank you very much for plugging our company RetroSpec Creations, LLC. It means a lot to us and as you very well know this time of year people are buying these by the hundreds. Been doing this for 12 years now and it took us a couple of years to see why sales jumped in September and early October.
No problem. You guys are awesome. I've ordered from you several times and will continue to do so.
Yep just bought some from you yesterday.
@@halloweenatthemanor8450 With your permission I would like to include a link to your video in our eBay listings. Please let me know.
@@stephenjames2448that's awesome. You have our permission. Thanks.
GREAT tutorial !!! Made things so easy!!!
Thank You!!!
Glad we could help. Have a great Halloween!!!
I've been known to follow irrigation installers around and ask for pvc scraps. I have a little hoard of all sizes and shapes of pvc materials for all kinds of projects.
Thanks for the tutorial. Going to be making these this month. Looked at a lot of videos, yours is clear and easy to follow.
Glad it was helpful! Good luck on the project.
I made this over the past weekend. Turned out great! Thank you so much!
That's awesome Mindy. So glad to hear it. Happy Halloween!!
Thanks for such great directions. Starting Halloween early this year. 5 sections done!
WOW!! That's awesome. I wish I had your motivation right now. It's too cold here in PA HAHA!!

Really nice ,very good tutorial on pvc fencing , looks fantastic .🎃
Thank you Mark and thanks for watching. We appreciate it.
Allow me to add some very helpful hints for 2024 and beyond since I just finished my first panel. You can use cheap paint for the 2x2 wood strips but do not use it on the PVC . It’ll come right off if you bump the painted pvc up against any other object. I learned the hard way when I painted PVC for a different project. You need to buy the Krylon 3 in 1 multi surface paint which will adhere to the PVC. It’s not cheap and for four panels it was roughly $75-$100 just for the paint. Again, you can save a little money by using the cheap stuff on the wood which didn’t occur to me until it was too late. Make sure to paint on the grass or driveway since the paint leaves a sort of paint dust which will cover everything that is nearby. The dust won’t stick to anything but will need to be hosed off. I also had a very difficult time trying to attach the ¾ inch finial to the ½ pvc even after heating. Knowing I needed to do at least 50, I had to to put my brain into overdrive. I got out my orbital sander and tried sanding the edges of the PVC for 10-15 seconds before heating. After sanding they went on quite easily.
Thanks for the tips. If you want to ou can, but I would not spend that much for the paint. I used the cheap stuff which is like $2 something a can and that will work. I have used our fences for a few seasons now and the paint has held up. If I see some marks I will touch it up.
Great job as always bro. I enjoyed watching that.👍
Thank you!!
Got a new subscriber here! I’ve been going all out over the few years since we bought our first house and it’s just so expensive now that we have a toddler so I’m looking for a lot of DIY stuff and this is perfect!
Thanks for subscribing Harry. We appreciate it.
Thanks for the great idea, I did this exactly, slightly less rust, the cost can add up quick but can be reused every Halloween.
That's awesome. Glad we could help. Yeah lumber prices seem to be coming down, but PVC is still ridiculously expensive.
love your video and building 12 sections of your 8 foot fence design for this Halloween. your video was very detail in describing exactly what you use/the price/and where you got it from. which helps me price out how much it will run me to build. only thing you left out was the rebar size to secure the fence to the ground. do you use 2ft/3ft/4ft?
You can use 2Ft Rebar. I attach my fence sections to columns so the column and rebar keep them secure. If you don't have columns, you may want to use either 3ft or 4ft rebar.
Great vid!
Thank you Rich.
Great video. The info is great. Do you have a video of the fence installed?
Yep we do. Here is the link

I absolutely loved this and many of your videos! Question for you: if you wanted to make your fencing posts bent (think Nightmare Before Christmas style) - what kind of material would you use for those posts?
You can use a heat gun on PVC and then bend the PVC however you would like. I haven't tried it personally, but I have seen other people do it. Thanks for watching!!!
Omg of course, the heat gun 🫣 Thanks for the reply!!!
@@micaelgivens6274 you're welcome. Good luck with your project.
A few customers have used pex tubing
Great video! Thank you so much! My only question is what size rebar do you use and how do you place it or secure it inside the PVC?
Usually use 2ft rebar. Sometimes 4ft pieces if you really want to add extra stability. Im not sure if the diameter, but a piece of 1/2 inch PVC will slide over it. You just hammer the rebar into the ground and slide the fence on it
Thank you! Such easy to follow, precise videos. So appreciate them!
What’s the best way to connect the sections so that they’re easy to take apart for storage. I did 4’ sections. Curiosity question…where do you store your stuff? My husband wants to cover it with a tarp on the side of the house, but not sure if it would ruin them.
Thank you!!!
I just put a screw toward the top and bottom to secure the sections. You can use a 2 1/2 inch screw. We store the fences in the garage. I have seen other people leave them outside covered by a tarp.
The walmart paint... was it for outside or will the first rain wash it off? Ooh...BTW.. thanks for the very good instructions A++ for you sir. I wrote down notes lol as I'm doing 15 8 foot sections for my yard. I'm super excited so again THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! Best fence video so far!!
Thank you Annie. I use the Apple Barrel brand paints from Walmart on almost all my projects, Halloween and Christmas, and they have never washed off.
Ok thanks for the info. Just picked up the wood and pvc. The store I was at didn't have the rebar. But found another store that has it. Was the rebar also 1/2" and if so did u use the half inch rebar how big of a section did u use to put in the ground to hold the fence up?
@@anniemae1987 just make sure the rebar you bought slides into the PVC. I'm pretty sure I use 1/2 inch rebar. For the fencing I use a piece of 2FT rebar. I probably put it in the ground 12-15 inches.
Ok awesome thanks so much for the help!!
Great tutorial! What size rebar did you use?
I primarily used 2ft long rebar. On some posts I will use a 4ft piece if I want some more security. I'm not sure what diameter rebar I used. If it slides into a piece of 1/2 inch PVC it will work.
@@halloweenatthemanor8450 Thanks so much. I started off with 1 foot and it was wobbly
Pro-tip, DON'T play with power tools and screws in bare feet, kidz...
Which size fo ials did you use. 1/2 OR 3/4?
If you are using 1/2 inch PVC, you have to buy 3/4 inch finials or they won't fit.
@@halloweenatthemanor8450 thank you very much.
@@walkermom100 you're welcome.
Any idea what to use if I cant find nutmeg? I can only find nutmeg brown
If the nutmeg Brown is a little to dark you might be able to mix a little bit of white paint in to lighten it up.
Isn’t the “Nutmeg” color the same as “Nutmeg Brown”?
Could you keep this up year round?
You probably could depending on where you live. However, I don't know how this would hold up if it were out year round. You might want to use pressure treated wood instead of just the normal 2X2's I used in the video. Probably would want to invest in some better paint as well. I just buy the cheap stuff since we only have this out during the haunt season.
Ever any rotting issues with the untreated wood? About to build our cemetery fencing!!!!
I never had issues with rotting, but I'm sure at some point the issue will show up. I made our Christmas fencing years ago out of 2x2's and it's still going strong.
Those are 8 foot sections correct? How far apart are the bars (pvc)?
They are 8 inches apart.
Nice job wounding how much this all coast for you
Thank you!! As far as cost, I don't know the exact amount, but it was a few hundred dollars. However, it will last for many seasons to come.
@@halloweenatthemanor8450 thanks so much probably gonna make it soon
@@jujua4917 good luck with the project.
@@halloweenatthemanor8450 thanks
How much did this project run you?
I'm not exactly sure. Maybe $400-500. I did make 16 8ft sections. One 8ft section might cost roughly $30-$35 depending on how high you make the posts. One 10ft PVC pipe is about $5-$6 and one 8ft piece of 2X2 Furring Strip is roughly $3.50-$4. That's not including screws, paint and finials.
Worth it!
@@mattbrunson8141 yes it was. I set them up in the yard the past two days and they look great. Worth the investment.
Great stuff. Gonna build some for my haunt.
Nice video, but I think I got splinters on my feet just watching this. Ouch!
HAHA!! Surprisingly, I didn't get any splinters in my feet, but my fingers were another story. Thank you for watching.
parts list breakdown?
It's all in the video what I used to make the fencing. Basically just 2x2 inch furring strips and 1/2 inch PVC.
It really does look rusty
The 3/4” finials do not fit over the 1/2” PVC!!
You have to take a heat gun and melt the top of the pvc and put the finial on. It will fit when you do that. The pvc will mold to the shape of the finial.
Oh darn it, missed that part. I’ll have to buy one. Hopefully they’re not too expensive. Thank you!!
@cindybye4536 you can get a cheap one at harbor freight. Works just fine. Walmart as well.
Nothing says safety like power tools and NO SHOES.
Haha. I know it's stupid. I like working in my bare feet.
