How to Install a Welded Wire Fence the Fast & Easy way with Elevation Changes, No Digging
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 мар 2022
- This is a quick step-by-step tutorial for installing a wire net fence, also called garden wire, garden netting, welded wire, etc. Technically it's not chicken wire but it's similar. This particular fence is 4 feet tall with 4 inch gaps, which meets regulations for fencing in a pool in most municipalities. It also helps keep your dog from chasing critters. The stakes are 5 ft U-posts.
This is just temporary fencing until I can install permanent posts and make it look pretty. My backyard has several elevation changes, so this video also covers how to change the angle to accommodate changes in terrain. This might not be the look you want long-term, but it's functional.

That is how you do a video for diy people who want to keep it real. Great job.
I really appreciate the lack of unnecessary valueless talking, thank you for getting right to it and being easy to understand.
Yes!!! I had to subscribe when he spoke of this!🎉
There is nothing more permanent than a temporary solution..
Facts
Absolutely :-)
My favorite permanent solution haha
Man this is the truest RUclips comment I’ve ever read
lol no doubt!
Thank you so much. I'm a single mom with a 9 yr old son and I believe we will be able to achieve this, thanks to this video🙌🏼
My partner and I are renters, and we've been searching for an affordable fencing option that our landlord wouldn't give grief over. This is a perfect alternative, a good weekend project. Your video is neat, thorough, and informative. Thanks
Same here!
This is exactly what I needed to see. I bought a hug roll of 6' welded fencing at a garage sale for the low price of $5! I couldn't believe it. I asked if he'd take 5 and he said yes! I Intend to make a chicken run with it. Thanks for putting this video up.
I've never seen a hug roll, but congratulations on the find! 100ft of 4 ft costs around #100.
@@jasonh7726 Hahaha! I also got a very large dog carrier making my entire transaction $20! The guy might have made some interesting choices in his life to warrant such a quick cash grab.
@@stephmartinez701 Isn't yard sales the best? Some are crazy expensive, some are trying to give away everything you didn't know you need!
I really needed this simple instruction. I'm a single lady moving into a disaster. I enjoyed you video because it was simple and I know what tools and products I now need. You saved me money and time, and I subscribed because of it. Any videos on replacing carpet, windows, or repairing holes in walls would be an amazing help to me! Thank you for what you do! I feel encouraged!
Thanks for subscribing. Carpet is tricky cause it needs to be stretched. Windows vary by wall (brick, siding, etc.). They need to be flashed and sealed. There’s a lot that can go wrong if you don’t do it right and get a leak. I am currently dealing with one that I prefer not to do myself because of the risk. These are all a bit more complicated than a fence unfortunately. But I will keep you in mind for future videos. Good luck with your projects
Hi Blake, you helped me and hubby save my guinea pigs in their outdoor oasis.Eternally thankful!
First time I’ve seen someone use those clamps correctly. Nice job!
As usual, I started my fence project without doing much research and made a bunch of mistakes. I like your video because you gave solutions to problems I hadn't encountered (yet). Thanks for creating this!
great, to the point, complete. A natural teacher, fantastic.
This has been super helpful! I’ve referenced this video several times while deciding how to fence in my yard for the dogs. Picking up all the materials tomorrow.
How's your fence go?
I just installed a fence using your video and you couldn't have made it simpler--came out great! Thank you.
May I ask how much you spent? Trying to decide the route I want to go....
@reeree5259 how much land are you trying to fence?
Thank you! This is exactly what I needed. The Home Depot welded fence description suggests u poles but the t poles are 20% cheaper! And I didn’t know about post driver before - thanks, i’d smash it with sledgehammer if I didn’t watch your video.
Just what I needed. I’m buying a house but need a temporary quick solution for my dogs to have a place to run. This works. Thx
Thank you! I’m building one of these this weekend. I’m prepared now. 😅
Yeah you have budget I still need to save some otherwise i did that too...thanks ,👍❤️
Thanks for making this a simple install, straight to the point, I'm fencing this wkend.
This was super helpful. I appreciate the normal person vibe of this.
This is the best instructional video I have ever seen. You made it look so easy! Right to the point, gave quick solutions to specific issues without jumbling up the video. I am now confident that I can do this project alone. Just for giggles I’m not going to tell my husband how I knew how to do it until after!
This is simple but amazing video. No gimicks all info. Thanks man! Tackling this today.
Wonderful. Not the most difficult project, but never having done one before, I knew there were things I should learn first. You answered the questions I had for this project (dealing with corners, clamping to the post, dealing with changes in level). Excellent video. Thank you.
Thank you for an excellent video ! I put up my welded wire fence after watching this and it was a great success 👍
Thank you!! You have no idea how much you just helped me!!
Super helpful to someone getting ready to install this fence to keep my dog from wandering my neighborhood. Great tips and advice. Thank you.
Thanks for the video. We're going to be putting up 100' of 5' welded wire next weekend. I've got a team of healthy and strong young people who will be pounding the posts into this rocky hard ground, but it's up to me to figure out the best way to handle slopes, bends around a couple of trees, etc. Your video was a good starting point.
Definitely a helpful video. Really appreciate the closeups of connecting the adjusted slope wires, and the tip about bending towards the welding points. Also the video was pretty satisfying to watch, even if I wasn’t trying to build a welded wire fence. Narration about what you were doing was on point 👌
This was great, very practical, straight to the point, and it has hopefully let me avoid a few mistakes which I would likely have made. Good video!
I think you did a great job with these fence instructions! I'm a single female and attempting to build a 100ft fence for my dog and this just gave me everything I need including the confidence to tackle it! Ill be coming back for the gate.. Thank you! (FYI every store I've been to or online refers to these as T Posts) Always has to be a jerk somewhere to throw negatively.
I’m getting ready to build my own 100 foot fence too by myself.
75 ft here
Same here 😊
Anyone have a price total for this project?
@@reeree5259 at your nearest Tractor Supply you can catch a sale where the 4ft tall and 100ft long will be $98
I've been thinking about doing this to fence in my yard for my dog and kids and this video is exactly what I needed! Thanks! Now I just need a video about making a gate lol

THANK YOU for keeping this super simple and detailed and well done quickly for me being able to understand and telling what those items are !!!!! Other RUclipsrs just assume people know what it is … I never done any home improvement I’m scared a bit but didn’t know where to start. I will be trying to do this with my sister as I need to make a fence asap. Thank you again !
Finally someone who helped me with my project! I needed this to guard my gardens from my golden retrievers because they LOVE to dig. Thank you so so much!
Thank you. This was very thorough and helpful. I have a brain injury (born with Chiari) and struggle to find DIY videos that I can actually process the information from.
Great work explaining.
Seeing this video made me feel more confident in building my first garden.
Happy I came across your videos. I’ve been debating on how to divide our yard so our dog can be out in the yard when we have guests in our studio apt. Between this fence and your 2X2 gate video I initially watched I think I now have a great solution. Thanks very much!
Thanks Blake. Keep it going. You are doing just fine. I am dealing with welded wire now as well. Cheers from Canada!💯🇨🇦🍁 P.S. Enjoy the short bloopers as well. Your sense of humour is appreciated.💪🙏
Dude you just saved me $3000. ❤ thank you!!!
Thank you - I watched a lot of fencing videos that were way too complicated. This was easy to understand and not intimidating to do by myself for my guinea fowls and dog :)
thanks for leaving the chit chat till the end. as long as you get to it i’ll always stick around for final thoughts. new sub here
Thanks for the video! The variations in terrain and tools for beginner level is extremely helpful
Best video I’ve seen on installing T posts using T-post connectors. You showed the process up close . I also loved how you explained the wave at top or bottom of fenced and how to correct. Nothing difficult. Keeping it a simple to understand installation. 👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching! Also they are technically U posts as several people have pointed out.
This is exactly what I needed. Getting ready to fence my very wooded backyard with the help of two strapping grandsons. Will use a combination of metal posts and trees. Thank you for the clarity.
Thank you for taking time to make your videos they're helpful.
I certainly hope it is as easy you make it look!! Thank you for such excellent instructions!!
Thank you! Put up my first fence on my farm yesterday, watched your video first, complete success.
Thank you for sharing. I plan to build this at the back of my property-it's straightforward, simple, and efficient!
This is exactly what I needed. I need to put up a cheap fence around my garden and this is something I can do. Thanks for the info! I love getting to the meat 🍖 and potatoes 🥔 of the video up front.
Thanks for the straight forward summary and how-to instructions. I’m pretty resourceful, but had never installed a rolled fence solution before. This video saved me a lot of time and aggravation!! Thank you again!!!
Thanks for your note. I hope your fence turned out well.
Really enjoyed watching this video. Great job explaining things in detail 👏
I hadn’t done this before but I have a project that I’m actually about to start. Thank you for the information you shared, it will definitely help out
I appreciate your insight (esp. clamping), how you got right to the point and your humor. New sub. Cheers!
Perfect. This is exactly the video I needed. Youre the man! Thank you!
This was very helpful and to the point, I am 61.5 and don't have a lot of time to waste. Thanks so much.
I have been searching for a good installation video for welded wire for a few years. This is the BEST by far! Thank you so much for posting. I'm subscribed and I hope you do more instructional videos, but I'm sure I'll enjoy your other videos as well. Love your style.
This was a very informative video, thank you. I have an old fence that's falling down, and I'm bringing home a couple of puppies next week, so I chose the welded wire with t-posts. Thank you for this!
Im trying to make a cheap and quick garden fence to deter rabbits. This video was absolute gold and beautifully explained. Thank you!
I threw one of these together as a temporary fix but I'm gonna be redoing it soon making it bigger and this video helped alot thank you for posting this
Excellent, perfect. This is exactly what I was looking for. I'm building a simple fence around a garden out in the country.
Holy buckets you saved me! I needed something to keep my dogs in and quite frankly I cant afford a fancy fence right now. Thank you!
This was perfect! Exactly the type of fence I’m looking to install for my dogs so I don’t have to be out with them all the time.
finally, a fence i can build with my own tools and skill set! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing. I'd love to build this for my mom. It's simple and effective!!
Very useful. I will try this method this weekend in our seasonal camper site. Thanks!
Thank you for this video. I am installing one of these today. I am definitely going to use the clamp trick.
Thanks for this. There's areas of the fence at my soon to be new house that were damaged by falling trees. This is the perfect fix for those spots They're already in a pretty heavily wooded area so it will be a perfect solution.
Great video with excellent tips! It's not exactly what I was searching for, but it certainly points me in the right direction. I live in a tiny northern AZ town, and we've got plenty of elk, javelina, and other wild critters. My goal is to keep my dog inside rather than having him on a long leash when we're outdoors. He's got a knack for chasing after anything that moves. My house sits on a hill, and the yard is quite sloped and uneven. Your advice on how to angle a fence like this will be a huge help. I'm looking forward to a video on how to build a gate; I'll check if you've made one already. Thanks again for the awesome video!
A friend of mine told me this morning at breakfast that he had 5 acres just outside of Lone Pine CA that he wants nothing to do with and said that I could do whatever I want with the land ( good buddy ) so I will most likely fence it in as you did ( until I can afford a proper wood fence ) and turn it into a home base hunting camp. Thanks for the info 👍
Did you ever put in a gate? I'm about to install one of these and need to include a gate over a walkway. Your video was very helpful!
Your gonna wanna use a wooden post and concretefor a gate. A round tubbing metal cattle with a metal mesh looks and works great with wire fence.
@@kingyart The wooden posts would be a more proper way of doing a gate, but since this is kind of a Mickey Mouse DIY PROJECT! You can actually make a gate without wooden posts and just use the T posts. I cut the fencing on one side where I wanted the gate to open. Then took two 3/4” wooden fence planks and stapled each one to each side of where the fencing is cut at. Then you can add whatever type of latch attached to the wood planks to keep the fence together across the driveway or walkway. Undo your latches and just pull the fencing back out of the way to get into your driveway or yard. It’s the poor man’s way of getting the job done without having to spend much money and not having to waste much time. This is what I did when I wanted my chickens pinned in on my side yard . I put loops on the side where it was next to a T post so the fencing just not flopping in the wind. Then made hooks that mounted to the plank that was connecting to the fencing you want to open. Then just had to raise the fencing a little to drop the hooks into the loops to close up the fencing. Lift the fencing back up to take the hooks out of the loops to open the fencing back up! Very simple and quick and cost very little to do!

Post wire fasteners were the play great tutorial man!
This was exactly what I’m looking for and achievable. Also very much appreciate that you make it simple and get straight to it.
Off to the hardware store now with a plan 👍🏻
Also I never subscribe but I have to yours as I appreciate what you’re doing 👍🏻
Great video Blake! This is best video I have found on utube for mesh fencing.
thanks this illuminated the whole u post fence thing for me. just bought some yesterday for a property line and had about as much idea how to do it as the home depot guy trying to help me. -___- this stuff is great for runner plants like passion vine and morning glory. (food and ornamental)
Thank you! Very well done - direct and to the point and well videoed! I need to replace some of the weld wire fence around a lagoon and now I know how! I think I can do this by myself! Just subscribed to your channel. - hope to find more well done instructional videos here.
Thanks for posting this, will follow it for my dog fence project
The stitching instructions were very helpful, thanks!
Good video, thanx. A couple of things: when twisting and wrapping wire ends, ensure the wire end are pointing away from the livestock side. Those posts are U-posts, not T-posts. You will probably replace the U-posts by T-posts when it becomes permanent.
Good video, straight to the point and good visual examples.
Thank you for this video on how to do this. Planning to do this for my yard 6ft high and running fabric through the fence for privacy. Sick of dealing with crap neighbors.
Thank you!! I was dragging my feet because I also want the pretty wood post /frame look, but need to get the dog fenced in so I can work outside! This is the motivation I needed. Looking forward to more videos! :)
Thank you very much for your video. I just bought a house and need a quick fence. Great video!
This was really helpful! It's always nice to be able to see it done before proceeding :)
Great video. Exactly what I was looking for. A gate video would be great to see how you built that.
Working on it. Hopefully this summer.
@@BuildingWithBlake just curious how tall that chicken wire is that you put on that split rail. Thinking about doing something like that to try and get away with a taller fence lol
@@dakota481 It's all 4 ft tall. There's def some wave on the split rail portion, but the dog doesn't mind.
Thank u SO much for this video!! I subed. Very helpful. I'm installing this type of fence today in my side yard for my dog and it's not the flattest land. Not horrible but still some bumps. So the tips for sure helped!
Thanks again!
Since i waited so long to buy all the chainlink and its alot more expensive and winters almost here welded wire is what im going with, thank you for this video!
Thank you. I'm going to use this to fence off the front of my yard near the road and add sugar cane or bamboo real close to the fence to create a natural hedge also.
I'll be doing it myself. I can't stretch wire,so....lol.
Great tutorial.
Thank you so much. Very helpful and easy. I will get started right away... before I forget all the steps, lol 🙈
You made this super easy to understand. Thank you!
I came back to this video because it’s THE BEST one I found on this type of fencing. I’m by myself, and mine will be shorter, (I hope), but I can follow your very clear directions! Thank you!
So glad it was helpful. Good luck with your fence.
@@BuildingWithBlake Thank you! Now I need to order the equipment, and it has to be short! Do they make shorter ones?
BTW, I’m SO SORRY to bother you, but I’m 68, a single woman, chronically disabled from overlapping pathogens for 20 years, and now have a severe form of Lyme, which is not allowing my broken shoulder from 10 1/2 months ago to heal. Thank you again! How did your wife get so lucky? 🙏🌷🌸
Thank You for this video. I needed to put a fence around my new property.
BWB.....GOOD JOB....not alot of talking....most appreciative for that just the essential details...lessons learned thanks for sharing
Thank you! I love the instructions. And the gate instructions...spot on as well!
Thanks man. Used this for ours last night. Very helpful and I love all the "practical" comments. (yeah, the instructions say X, but you really can do Y).
So easy to understand. Thank you. Need a quick fix to secure the swimming pool because the winter cover has some seams wanting to split and the Italian Greyhounds run across the cover. Now I can quickly with low budget fix this problem for now
Thanks. This really helps out a lot! I thought it wasn't possible to do it without any digging.
Exactly what I needed. Huge area to fence for shih tzus. Will trellis it after so appearance isn't important. Thank you so much!
Nice walk-thru...hopefully this help a little w/ the dogs trying to dig out
Really well made and clear video! Thank you!
So glad I decided to research and found this video. I totally had it wrong in my head 😅
I would love to see the fence once you add the new wood fence posts.
This was helpful with my backyard fence. Thank you.
Excellent video. Exactly what I was looking for.
This was so helpful thank you! Just trying to keep my toddler in the yard 😅
Thanks! This video was exactly what I needed! Cheers!
