    I just bend one part of the clips outwards rather than trying to slot it from above into place. I’m on my own when I build these type of fences. Placing it straight on is a lot easier. All you do then is bend it back into place then the drill and screw secures it tightly

    Our new fence panels are very heavy, perhaps better quality? If I remove the very top piece of wood, surely the panel will flex enough to offer the panel up to the posts at ground level and bend them into place?

I was fed up about it, as two of us on ladders have no chance of getting them up....well, I have never laughed so much in my life, never seen anything like it, even me, with no fencing experience at all knows this is wrong and a very ugly bodge job that won't stop your fence wobbling about, but genuinely, thanks, I have cheered up, knowing I couldn't possibly do any worse!

    So maybe a daft question.. but is there a way to install fence panel from side and not the top? I have to install a new fence panel right up against the house. But my neighbour has a insulation layer installed on his side of the house and it's partly protruding over the inlay groove where I'd slot the panel into place at the top. So annoying really that neighbour couldn't have his contractors take that into account when he had his insulation done several years ago now. The fence was installed 30 years ago now so I'd say it's his fault not mine.

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  2 года назад +1

      Not that I know of. Hope their insulation layer isn't on your land else you'd need a boundary matters expert to check it out. Need to chat to your neighbour to see if you can somehow get access to the top to slot in a new panel. How frustrating.

  • @markdavies3936

    Hi. What drill bit would you use for the cable ties? I have a concrete post that’s moved and now the gap is too big (not big enough for next 6x6) so I’m hoping your cable tie technique will solve the problem. Thanks!

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  2 года назад +1

      Can’t remember what I used but only a small one which you then move up and down to create the line for the cable tie to go through. My big chunky cable ties work really well and if you clip them off you barely notice them.

    My fence posts are at differing widths. Do you have a video on how to fit one of those long squiggly-bobs down the sides to make up the gap? Sorry for my lack of fence lingo, but like many others here, this is my first time doing this!

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  2 года назад +1

      How odd they are different widths. I would think the easiest way would be to secure some end wooden batons to the sides of the fence panel before you install. Can’t think of another way to make up the gap and still keep it secure in windy conditions

      Gravel boards are about 17cm high. Fence panels are 6ft high so total height top of fence to the ground about 6ft 7inches. Some of the gravel boards have sunk slightly so they do all vary in height a bit. Hope that helps.
