I noticed you don't supply aluminum fencing on your site. Do you have any recommendations where to buy? Handy Home Owner looking to install my own around a pool going up this summer. Thanks in advance! Love you content too!
Great job! I know you sell the I posts but do you sell aluminum fences and gates as well? Why is the aluminum post not recommended for steel posts and fences?
I think it was Midwest fence (RUclips channel) that said the no dig system voids the product warranty. I believe he was speaking on vinyl tho. Thoughts?
Funny they would say that but let clowns install it 18” deep in sand with one 60 lb bag of concrete and say its covered. Manufacturers never cover workmanship. If my post is still standing tall and strong but the vinyl is all messed up, its on them.
All that is aluminum stiffeners used in pvc rails basically, though they are just a little heavier. Digger specialties made aluminum style fence you could take a panel out without messing with a post and it had no screws whatsoever. So many different aluminum fence manufacturers out there.
These are specially made for us. It takes the right aluminum to be strong enough to pound. Furthermore it has to fit correctly. Lastly, this system is patented so even if you did find it somewhere else, you would be infringing on the patent to install it. Don’t worry though. We have it available on our website which provided you license to use the system when yo buy the beams from us.
I’m surprised that the manufacturer doesn’t make a template for post spacing. I can see it’s not that hard to make but it’s even easier to make a bunch at a time and they could sell them or give them away with a decent size order.
I already installed my post with concrete but no screws as of yet. Will these Aluminum I posts slip in with the fence in place? It looks like it wont be a problem! Much thanks.
I'm afraid it's not made for that. You could get it in there but it's not going to really serve it's purpose without being driven into the ground. I don't think it's going to do much for you.
@SWiFence I think it'll still provide strength as an insert. I would think that it would be more stronger than putting them into ground. It'll be surrounded by metal and concrete! Yes overkill tbh
That’s a great system. Those I-beams would work great in a residential horizontal vinyl, some guy in Wyoming built a wall once, probably don’t know him. Lol
How does one acquire the I-beams, are they expensive, and do they work for both Elite/Ultra or what do you guys use? And how do they do with rocks and roots?
We currently have these for any 2” post. I would not spend extra on heavy posts since these are stronger than the heavy posts. As far as purchasing them there is a link in the description. If you want to buy a license the can be purchased cheaper but the price shown is to allow people to use the patented system for a one time install. Fence contractors should reach out to me at sales@swifence.com to get licensing info.
I like this idea! Could you tell me the dimensions of the Salty Posts? I had planned on doing this wood and didnt know there was a system on the market.

Where can I purchase that aluminum post for my project. I will be working 7 ft. Height 10 ft. Length fence panels possible 4000 ft. job. Thanks in Advance
I live in Michigan and I am sure there are rocks in the ground that would make the post want to shift as it is driven. How do you prevent this. Like the idea.
This method does depend on your soil. If you've got so many rocks that once you drive you can reach out and shift that post around because it's loose--it's never going to work. If you've got smaller rock you can often drive through. If you've got lots of larger rock it's not going to work.
Great product and design. The only problem installing in Florida is the irrigation lines run everywhere and you would never know you hit one until it's to late.
Can someone please help me? I live in Miami,fla. I am trying to find a fence contractor to install my fence but for some reason every time a fence contractor come to my home and give me an estimate,they either tell me to get the permit,they don't have liability insurance or they over charge me. I called a fence contractor who makes their own fences and he wants to charge me $95 dollars per linear foot for 125 feet for a aluminum picket fence,I believe he is trying to rip me off! How much does a linear foot of aluminum picket fence cost in 2023?
You can break up the smaller rocks, but yeah, if you've got tons of rock it won't work for you. Or if your major rock layers are far enough down like in this video ruclips.net/video/m8MWWRo9T2U/видео.html
Typically we think in two categories: digging or driving. Digging involves making a hole, either with an auger or a *gasp* shovel (not our favorite pastime). Driving is essentially hammering a post into the ground. They seem pretty different to me.
Great product design. Love the fact that repair/replacing sections is simplified.
Thanks! 👍
Great video. Where can you get the aluminum posts you drive in?
shopifence.com/collections/all
Awesome video. What does this end up costing per foot for the style shown?
What brand of Fence are you using ? Looks Great, I have to install some with a couple of gates, Absolutely will calculate and order these beams,,,
What is that machine driving posts down in the ground?
My question as well
It's a gas post pounder/driver. That specific one looks to be a REDI Driver .
Thats awesome, saving this for later!
Good video: complete, problems arose and were dealt with, good advice from experience in fitting the fence with a uniform look

Great job! I know you sell the I posts but do you sell aluminum fences and gates as well? Why is the aluminum post not recommended for steel posts and fences?
How do you handle a 3-Way intersection?
Do you all service the Houston Tx area. I would love to have this around my pool. 29x40
We do not. Sorry. 😞

I agree. Funny thing is. This is the way to go. Hands down. Less frost heave also. It’s a no beainer
Brainer

You have any info on this aluminum fence wouldn’t mind trying to install some in South Florida
When you set your height do you screw the mainfence to the Ipost?
Great system mark and swi team that is awesome do you guys sell them for 2 1/2” ornamental aluminum posts that’s the size posts we use most commonly
That is awesome leave minimum trace of being there and speed up production by double can’t go wrong
We are currently focused on 2” posts but will be rolling out 2.5” if this goes well.
It’s a HUGE time saver!

As for the fencing do you sale or have recommendations where to order from?I tried calling shop and just got voice mail box full and disconnected.
Whoops--sorry about that. Give our shop in Wyoming a call: we do all our sales through there. They can answer your questions: (307) 578-8040
Try that here in Southeast Florida. The coral rock will fight back. Get your skid steer and auger ready!
It won't work everywhere. 😄🤘🏻
Is there a special H post for the corner sleeve?
Corner posts are L posts. www.swifence.com/no-dig-insert-for-2aluminum-fence-corner-post.html?id=88567981
That’s a great system. Those I-beams would work great in a residential horizontal vinyl, some guy in Wyoming built a wall once, probably don’t know him. Lol
I may have met him once.
Cute little shoes 😂
Nice video dude 🎉🎉
Thanks 😆
How did you guys do the corners? Still use the same I beams?
No, the corners take a different insert. www.swifence.com/no-dig-insert-for-2aluminum-fence-corner-post.html

can this be done with the 5' to 6 ' tall fence?
Absolutely.
So what's the cost with shipping
Since there's no digging do you no long call know before you dig 811?
We definitely call. We're still going in the ground and still need to know where utilities are.

@@SWiFence Yep, that is what I was thinking. Stupid to even ask. However there are not stupid questions right?
Where can you buy in Virginia?
From us. We'll ship it to you. 👉🏻 bit.ly/SWINoDigAluminumSystem
Very nice but I won’t sell any aluminum fence down here in south Texas that really looks expensive
Great product and design. The only problem installing in Florida is the irrigation lines run everywhere and you would never know you hit one until it's to late.
Your link does not show the aluminum fence. Just normal fencing material
We're working on some supply issues and should hopefully get that sorted soon. 👍🏻
Do you have a company in Texas that i can have it done?
Not currently, no. 😔
@@SWiFence 🤦♀️
I just wanna know where I can get the I beam 😀

We started an additional company in Florida.
Very cool

Hey I just wondering what does SWI mean
Service With Integrity
That great if you live in the middle of a putting green . The rest of the country has rocks dude.
You can break up the smaller rocks, but yeah, if you've got tons of rock it won't work for you. Or if your major rock layers are far enough down like in this video ruclips.net/video/m8MWWRo9T2U/видео.html
I love this
Nice
Thanks
Good money making process, get it done quick, but that is one cheap looking aluminum fence compared to what we install
I’m not sure what you are installing but in most markets this is the standard, especially in the southeast.
@@SWiFence same here. this is standard.
So in other words....you still have to dig to put the I beam.
No, the I beam is driven. You may run into a few situations where it's wiser to dig, but no, we pound them in.
It’s surprising the fence comes with posts and you can drive them in but you spend extra to do it with an insert don’t make sense
Kind of a misleading title
“Without digging”
*drives a post*
🤦♂️
