Im a DIY & a noob to fencing but your video made it so much easier for me to know what hardware is needed to secure the chain link to the posts so thank you! Great video btw .
The brace band is also used on the bottom if you use tension wire or a rail on the bottom. Great video, thanks. On tj brownie comment, usually tensin wire is used in grass or dirt ground. But i'm no pro, I did use it on the fence I built last week.
Dear Joe, I'm a big fan of your videos. I have a question about the tension bars that you slip in at the end of the chain cloth. There's a hole on one end of the bar and a notch on the same end. I sure would love it if you could do a short video on how to use those. I've looked at quite a few videos including some of your own but nobody seems to cover it.
I have heard the wire fencing called fabric...is this correct????.....also the tension bar helps when you are stretching the fabric(fencing) with a come-a-long to fit the opening to secure the tension bands
You can run a tension wire along the bottom, but most of the time that's for yards with dogs who dig and things like that. Otherwise, the tension on the fabric is plenty to keep it up for a long time.
any tips of getting started on a chainlink business? almost have all the tools we use,a welder for making gates,where is a good bulk place to order fittings from ? lowes charges alot
Thanks for your videos, I enjoy watching them. I've done fencing also, I'd love to have one of your fence signs to add to my collection. I'm in California. I'd gladly pay the shipping fee.
I've been working on the fences around my house. Years ago somebody put a one foot section of chain link fabric connecting a large fence and a small fence. There's no support on it and it's bent from somebody jumping the fence. Is it worth trying to bend it back or should I just replace it? I haven't had any success bending it back yet but I'm probably using the wrong tools. Thanks in advance.
Joe...how about the surface mount at the bottom of the post? I want to build an enclosure on top of a wood deck but can't seem to find that part at Home Depot.
We weld these in-house, but most fabricating shops could weld one on for you. We sell the base plates at ozfence.store, or you can probably find them locally at a fence company.
I really enjoy watching your videos. You do very well at explaining fence. But I can't help myself and I will surely burn for my comment. You forgot the post caps and the line tops or (loop caps) along with tension wire ( anybody seen my pork chop?) and "hog rings"
To repair it right, you’ll have to replace around 10” of the fabric. I’ve seen some people try to just patch the whole, but replacing the wire is really the best option.
Unfortunately when we switched to a RU-vid Brand Account it removed all my previous comments and replies on all of the videos that I made from the personal account.
If the wire pulling up is a concern we typically run a thick bottom wire. This concern would be the same regardless if the fence was installed on concrete or dirt.
