trellis.

A step-by-step guide to installing panel fencing on timber or concrete posts.
Ensure the area is clear from obstructions such as old fence posts, bushes, or anything that may interfere with the new fence line.
Check all underground services. The area must be clear of pipes and cables for at least two feet underground. Erect the string line to mark the fence boundary.
Select your concrete or timber post.
Dig a two foot deep hole and insert post.
Ensure that the post is the correct height for the fence, allowing for gravel boards if used. Use a spirit level to make sure the post is upright. Put Rapid Set Post Kwik into the hole, add the correct amount of water and mix.
Step 6 Attaching panel clips.
Concrete slotted posts do not require panel clips. For wooden posts attach the panel clips to the posts and then fix the panels to the clips. Keep a spirit level on top of the panel to make sure the fence remains level on top.
Repeat steps 4, 5 and 6 until all your panels are installed. The last panel may need to be reduced in width to finish off the gap. This can be done with a handsaw.

Here are some fairly basic things to consider when thinking of buying a new fence.
The old adage good “fencing makes good neighbours” may be true but it must surely be wise to tell your neighbours what you would like to do. When they realise that they will benefit from having the new fence themselves they will probably be enthusiastic.
Measure the length of the proposed new fence line. As a rule your new panels will be about six feet wide, so divide the length of your fence in feet by six to get the number of panels you need. For example, for a fence 48 feet long you will need eight panels. You will probably want new posts eight panels will need nine posts if you want posts at both ends.
You have a choice between the strength and longevity of concrete posts and the natural appearance of wooden posts. For wooden posts you have a choice of two sizes, 4 inch square or the cheaper 3 inch square. You also have a choice of post caps.
Using gravel boards underneath the fence panels is a good way of ensuring that your panels will not rot prematurely. Both wood and concrete gravel boards are available.
Remember, your fence is only as good as your posts, so if you opt for one of the more expensive panels use the appropriate posts.
There are two methods of securing your posts into the ground. One is to concrete them in, the other is to use metal post anchors. Metal post anchors are only suitable for wooden posts. Choose the correct length of post for the job. If you are concreting them in the posts will need to be 2 ft longer than the height of the fence. If you use metal post anchors the posts will not need to be as long.
For wooden posts fix the fence panels to the posts using panel clips to avoid splitting the wood. Concrete slotted posts do not need fixings – the panels slot straight into the posts.

We have now introduced a glazing kit for our sheds which have windows
The standard fixing kit you will receive with your building includes panel pins to secure your choice of glazing material into position. However, you do need to then seal the windows in order to make them weather-proof. We advise that you use a suitable sealant such as silicone, mastic, putty, etc. You may also wish to use beading to reinforce the panes.
You can use your own products to seal the windows or you could take away the burden of having to source beading and sealant elsewhere by purchasing our Window Glazing Kit. The kit comprises of sufficient window beading for the building ordered, Professional Exterior Silicone, and a Power Pro application gun. Not only is the beading manufactured using the same high-quality timber as the Shed, but the Silicone is a premium quality high modulus acetoxy cure silicone sealant, which is designed to prevent mould and fungal growth.
The Window Glazing Kit is an economic and convenient solution to sourcing essential beading and sealant.
