I have 300 ft of chain link fence in my back yard, to keep my dog in. The fence is in terrible condition. Sags, missing ties, no bottom wire; previous owner diy special. I contacted a fencing company to come out and service it. Never heard back! Red hot sales lead ignored. I have worked with my hands almost my entire adult life, now 77. There is nothing I've seen on this video that I can't undertake, and I have the cutter tools already. Great video. Very well explained. The man has mastered his craft.
Sir I’d love to help you if you live in Georgia , I’m a hard worker and will do it for free
Red flags for contractors: fixing other people's work, angry client, DYIers that know something by watching videos, clients that know everything wrong with fencing so you know they'll only find fault in your work. Those are folks that, no matter how good your work is, they will never be happy. Pass
Never call a fence company for stuff like that it’s usually gonna cost u 400-600 just for a repair I charge 150-400 depending on repair
I am a Chinese fence manufacturer and fence machine manufacturer
Where are you located and have you got your fence ?
Bro You Guys are so Amazing for helping teach the next generation of young folks to work smarter not harder. RUclips is a truly a wealth of know how and you are adding so much value to the treasure chest. TY brother!
Thank you so much for those kind words!
I have a question installers placed a chain link fence between my property and my neighbor's property and they ran the fence right against the tree and cut the bottom two feet or so and pulled it open so it could wrap around the tree trunk. Of course three years later the tree has fallen into his yard. How difficult the process would it be for someone who's never installed a fence to unroll the fabric or excuse me roll the fabric up 10 feet from left to right or from the last Pole to the pole before it so that they Bobcats can work on the tree stump and get the rest of the tree out without really buying all these other tools that a fence installer needs
I'm installing chain link for the first time. Your video demystifies the processes. Thank you for not glossing over any details. 🤜🏼🤛🏼
You did an excellent job explaining. I'm a teacher and I'm always impressed with someone who can explain things so well.
Thank you, Connie! That's very kind.
99% of utube videos are done by people that don't really have any idea what they're doing. This is the real deal and I need to fence in about an acre. Gonna do it exactly like you showed. Only thing I haven't checked on is whether I can rent a post driver. Being a retired mechanic I will use marine grease on bolt threads so grand kids can disassemble 30 years from now. Marine grease has a sticky additive that water won't wash off.
Thanks ! Just did 350' of fence with 6 gates and couldn't have done it without your videos.
One of the best videos on fencing I have found. Explained perfect. Thanks
I am from Czech republic, in Europe. It is interesting to see how different your fence system is. We don't use the top rail, that would be too expensive, instead we use 2-3 tensioning wires (top, middle, bottom), which are not twisted wire, just a single one and on each wire there is a ratchet tensioning mechanism. To prevent terminal posts from bending under the weight of the fence we use struts at 45deg angle attached at 2/3 of the height of the terminal posts and on link posts each 80 feet. These days more and more people don't even actually use the chain link fence, but we use square hole spot welded fence, which is much stronger and doesn't require the tensioning wires. Instead the horizontal wires of the spot welded fence are bent slightly to a V shape in each square and then to tighthen the fence we use special pliers which are bending the V shape to be more pronounced, effectively making the square narrower and thus tensioning the fence. A lot of times we also use concrete plates underneath the fence, which are sitting on the ground, attached to holders on the fence posts, this is to prevent dogs from digging underneath the fence.
Very interesting! I wish I could see it!
For sure! 👍🏻
Id love to see what it looks like
This style is the Ugliest of all. But very efficient if done properly.
@@iridium8341 I would disagree with that, to me the top rail would make the fence look too bulky and noticeable. For that reason our fence wires are coated in green color so they are almost unnoticeable and don't stand out in nature. I haven't seen the top rail used anywhere in Europe, apart from some specialty fences, like security perimeter fences around industrial buildings.
You, Mr, are a breath of fresh air in a sea of pollution. Thank you is not enough but it's truly meant.
I HATE RUclips BULLSH*TERS.
You, however are a pro and it SHOWS.
Kindest regards from the UK. 🖖
As a full time pipe-layer "opportunities to hit things are endless", hits me on a personal note.
I've been watching you for over a year now, and just want to say your delivery and presentation have improved sooo much. Keep it going brother, very professional.
That's a big compliment. Thank you so much!
Holy crap. I just saw your shirt. You guys are customers where I work. Cool.
That guy explains the procedure very easy!
You are an incredible instructor. So much appreciated
I appreciate that! Thank you!
WOW I watched so many confusing fence videos thank you for making it so easy and adding all the tools and parts links
You bet!
Short and To-The-Point video.
PERFECT!
Just told a customer I would install a fence. This looks like it’s going to be fun.
Many years ago my cousin took me out to help him build a fence just like this. In reality, he helped me learn something new. I had forgotten some of the details and the names of the pieces we used but this video brought it all back. Very informative and straight to the point. Great video
A+ Excellent Job, You are actually providing professional instruction and using actual teaching methods.Very thorough and like how you cover your steps/review. Hardly anyone else does that. Also showing the different ways/methods that can be used. Fully explaining/naming different tools used and all the parts of the fence. How everything fits together from top to bottom for a completed fence install project from start tto finish. One of the best instruction videos ever viewed, Not skipping over anything or leaving things out which requires the viewer to have to replay sections of the video over again. Content Creators need to take lessons from you on how to properly create videos.
Thanks! Such a kind comment. 👍🏻
Thanks Guys I just installed an awesome 5 ft high black vinyl fence with 2 gates . Without these videos I would have been lost .Dan is a great guy to have doing the videos . Makes me want to build another fence
I just installed a 5' high fence myself and this video made it possible!
how tall did you leave line post and terminal post for 5ft fence? asking for a friend
You are really a good mechanic, keep up the good work!
Buying a house and a chain link fence is badly needed so this is very helpful thank you. I’ll be watching this again
Wow this had to be the best explained video I've seen!! Thank you so much for your patience and time 😊
You are so welcome!
And by the way your guys videos are awesome. Keep doin what you do! I been installing fence for 15 years and it's nice to see different methods
Thanks 👍
Watching this video gave me the confidence I need to tackle this job. Thank you so much!
Love to hear this! 💪🏻
Thank you I’m looking into being a laborer for a fencing company and this helps immensely
Its been a while since i installed my fences on my propertys, so i checked out your video and i was very impressed, you added some very good knowledge to my library of info. Thank you for that and thank you for taking the time to make a detailed video with links on your products. I will be picking some of these tools. Keep paying it forward.
Thank you so much for those kind words. 👍🏻
Awesome video , great step by step instructions from start to finish .I like how you throw common sense answers in there as well you simplify it to where anyone can just follow through with it . Good job
Thanks so much!
Thanks for this! I live in Wyoming too 😄 can't wait to have a fenced in backyard this summer 🤩
Thanks for the helpful and detailed video! Much appreciated!
Keep it up!
I really really appreciate you guys who make these how to videos for people like me. I have worked with a lot of different things from framing, dock building, decks, electrical, etc. but building a chain link fence was just one of those things that I had never gotten to do nor worked with anyone who installs them. To be able to see the steps involved on video as well as the material and tools I'll need to do it makes it soooooo much easier and stress free than blindly going into it not knowing anything and having to redo something b/c I didn't know to put this piece in first, etc. It makes you much more prone to take on a project and do it yourself when you're able to see it done by people who are experts do it. To visually see the steps on video helps so much when you have zero experience/knowledge in that trade. I have about 8-10 ft of area that needs to be fenced to keep my aunt's dog from breaking out and after watching this I'm definitely going to do it myself and it will also give me a good excuse to go Home Depot and buy more tools b/c I am a hardcore tool junky! Thanks again for your knowledge of the trade!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
Thank you for the straightforward, in-depth video and tips! Much appreciated!
My pleasure!
I'm a fence guy in Florida, and I thought I invented the perfect pack bar, until I saw yours on another video.

What is the largest run you can do with just an end post on either side (2 end posts)?
Thanks for the lesson, you are a great instructor. I’m a new property owner and this diy definitely helped me out.

You bet!
Huge shout out. there's a poorly made chain link fence with no top rail or bottom wire, that runs around my back yard but a 78' section of it was ripped out by the landscaping company the flippers hired so they could get heavy equipment back there to dig and it was never replaced. I built the 78' to finish out the fence and added a gate, it may not be the straightest fence ever made lol but it is very sturdy and the only reason I was able to do it was because of the videos on this channel, they break things down in a way that even a dummy like me can understand! Thanks so much for the videos and keep making great content!
Hey thanks for that! Super awesome to hear!
Whoa clicked on your video to watch and I’m watching from down here in Cheyenne WY brother!
I’m a ham radio operator and have been using chain link fence post for years as masts to hold up my antennas and weather stations. It works very well and is very secure when done correctly
Nice!
You guys are awesome, very informative information
Thanks for watching!
Beautifully done
Clearly Explained

Thank you kindly!
great video, very informative i like your detailed and a little funny way. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Very helpful and so-well explained. Thank you.
You're very welcome!
Thank you SWI your video gave me just enough insight to be able to complete my gate widening project. I ordered a puljack but it got delayed in shipping so I stretched my fabric using my shovel by temporally driving a piece of extra post into the ground as a leverage point opposite the gate post 😂😂😂 it worked!
Nice work!
Thank You my new neighbor just had a tree removed that was on the line. I am going to reclaim some yard. Great Video !
Great video 👍😉
Hi Dan. I want to take a moment and thank you for this OUTSTANDING video! I know NOTHING about fences - I work in the IT field. I was consistently being let down by fence companies that said they would call back, and never did. Or contractor friends who promised to work up a quote and never did. So I decided I would do it myself. This video, and the other one on your channel that breaks down all of the pieces and how they go together - was all I needed!. I planned out the 200 feet of fencing along the back of my property. Someone helped me with digging the holes, but I finished it today! The terrain was not flat, and I had to remove some trees, but it is done! I really appreciate your "right to the point" what and how and why instructions.
Additional, I used 28 post - 6 were terminal posts. 5 ft galvanized chain link.
Sweet! Love hearing stories like this! Thanks for sharing! 💪🏻
Clean job
Wow. Thank you for the very educational video.
You're welcome!

I saw this video with a guy named Mark, you may have heard of him, down in Florida who could use a couple guys like you. Great share guys.
What ever happened to the middle age overweight man with funny shoes?
Some of this stuff is really different than the way I installed fence, but some other things were really cool. The top rail tool would have been nice for doing 8' 9ga, and those panel stretchers look a lot beefier than the ones we used. I'm going keep those in mind next time I have to do a small fence job for someone.
