Never tends to be a fun day when slats are on the job sheet! One thing we do is bend the bottom angled part of the slat back into itself so when we insert them they don’t tend to pop out of random diamonds when going down. Not sure if it’s faster but we’ll stick about 10 in at a time in the top few diamonds then use both hands to slide them down.

Much better than the old aluminum we use to put sideways with a sideways locking strip

I remember installing about half a mile of, I believe it was PermaHeadge, made in Jamaica, NY., more than a hundred years ago now. Nicely did Dan.

I never considered the wind! Thank you so much for mentioning that!! The gate of my chain link fence was hit by a car and now the sliding pole doesn’t line up with the female part in the ground…any suggestions on what to do? It’s extremely rocky hard dirt so digging it up feels next to impossible. It’s only off by life an inch. What do you suggest? It’s tall like at least 6-7ft. Also what would you recommend for the most privacy but it’s extremely windy. Probably just going to do the double swinging gate part for now since it seems to be so pricey. Thank you for the video and for your help!

@larsonfamilyhouse Месяц назад

SS40 since it’s so tall? I better figure out how to get the bottom part lined up first I guess!

Outstanding vid. What’s the strongest privacy or semi privacy fence for high wind like in Sarasota, FL? Do you like slats over privacy screen? Does SWI cover Florida?

@SWiFence 5 месяцев назад

We like driven, no-dig steel posts for a nice strong fence. And yes, these tests were done in FL. 🙂 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_iQnheVwAI4.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8jWcT17PFME.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_rZr1xtjy0Q.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ocr73Lmo9O8.html Privacy screen is great for advertising, but if I was putting a chain-link fence around my yard, I would use slats. Slats are a more long-term solution whereas windscreen may need adjusted and readjusted especially if you have lots of wind. With enough wind it’s possible that it can even get damaged and need replaced. We do work in St. Johns county in FL, but not over in the Sarasota area.

How do know when you can just drive chain link post direct into the ground with no concrete? Advantage disadvantages of doing it this way. I had no idea it was even a option to do it that way until I seen your video.

@SWiFence Год назад

Driven posts can work in almost any climate and soil type. The question is how deep will you need to drive them in your soil and only you can answer that by running a test. Its all about depth. The looser the soil the deeper you have to drive....if it comes to a point where you have to drive 6 ft then concrete may still be the best option. You have to be careful about soil with lots of rocks or sand, as either one of those will give you a loose, shifting soil (you can still drive in sand if you go deep enough). Also be careful in very rocky soil. A rock here or there isn't the end of the world, you can sometimes break it up and drive through it--depending on the size. Lots of rock in the ground can be a problem--you need some clay to grab and hold your pipe tight. If you drive it in and it's loose and twistable it's no good. Driving is excellent when conditions are right, but it's not right for everywhere. I can tell you that there are companies in Florida using this method and they drive the posts 54" compared to our 36" in heavy clay. The looser the soil the more depth is needed to hold up to wind load. But up here 36" is more than adequate to hold up a privacy fence in Wyoming wind. 👍🏻

How many liner feet can you install in a day with one guy?

@garrysmith5224 9 месяцев назад

😂 After watching this video, I took a job installing these in a school tennis court. Boy did I make a mistake. New fence is easy. Existing fence with a million dents, bends and dings is a complete nightmare.

What are the “winged” privacy slats you used in this video? They seem to provide the most coverage I’ve seen.

@SWiFence 2 месяца назад

This is what you see in this video: bit.ly/SWI-lockingslats We use a winged version in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EGo88fUmb-8.html We don't have the winged ones on the website, but you can order them if you call the shop: 307-578-8040

@newenglandman2413 Год назад

Thanks for great content. During a lengthy nasty non-covid virus, I binge-watched almost all of your videos and thoroughly enjoyed them. I was surfing to find out how RU-vidrs make money off the videos. I always assumed it was by having the videos watched and getting a thumbs up. I was wrong; it is by watching and clicking the ads. Well ... I have an ad blocker. Ugh. So I hope this makes up for some of what you got shortchanged. And I'm sorry for picking on your height. I can see in videos that your head is pretty dang close to the height of the fence. Or ... is it a 4' fence? hmmm.

@SWiFence Год назад

Hey thanks you so much! That's super nice of you--very much appreciated! And no--it's not a 4' fence. 🤣

@newenglandman2413 Год назад

Thanks!

@SWiFence Год назад

Thanks so much! You're amazing! Appreciate it! 👍🏻👍🏻

An off subject question here but who better to ask then SWI. Why is nobody using any kind of sealant (oil, bitumen, tar) to seal wooden posts (4x4) when setting in the ground for fencing? We all know where precisely they rot and why. I am a contractor fixing those kind of broken fences all the time. It is a mystery to me and perhaps you can help solve it. Thanks in advance and you have a good dang day … and happy new year.

@SWiFence Год назад

There are plenty of folks that do, but the harsh truth of it is they're still going to fail eventually (sooner or later depending on climate) and we got tired of that. 👍🏻

@splanzza Год назад

@@SWiFence Makes sense. Thanks a bunch for your reply.

@HerbertAtkinson Месяц назад

Just plant morning glory vines or black eyed susan thunergia flower vines against the fence within 2-3 years the fence will be covered much that no one will be able to see in.

@tayelorwallace9928 Год назад

Do those two that are sticking up just a smidge bother anyone else?

@SWiFence Год назад

Haha--yes. 😆 Just a quick illustration for the video--but yeah, that would bug me if I were staring at it.

@sassafrasvalley1939 Год назад

Dan, I can’t believe you went there! I have always considered the fare presented by SWI to be ‘Family Friendly”. And then…. You start talking about walkin’ around in your yard with your naughty bits exposed. I was gob smacked!!! The image of a a grown man flittering around his property au’ naturale, displaying his nekid goose pimpled blue body for all the world to see… was bad enough to have embedded in my brain… but then, you had to go and graphically illustrate a facsimile of… it right before my eyes… well Dan, that did it. I now have it seared into my retinal membranes for life! Please rush me an order of 6’ slats so that I can block the view of my big screen TV before the sequel video drops. I fear that if you dawdle in my request, I may struggle to have a good danged New Year! PS:please thank MBTC for advising you that a fencing uniform was a much wiser wardrobe choice than wearing an actual birthday suit!
