Wow.. this is awesome!! Now I really know I want to hire someone to do this for me.

Just finished my fence this video helped a lot. Thank you! Although there was a lot more digging and dirt leveling in my project lol. That backyard was pristine. Not to mention I had roots and rocks and random old concrete blocks someone had buried in there.

Ive never installed chain link but for wood and vinyl you usually do corner post first, run a string along the top then set the post in between the run to the height of the string.

They should have filmed this with rocky soil and swear words.

when pulling the fence tight, save time and effert by keeping the puller short and removing the excess fence just one time. (7.54) The slight loss of tension after attachment is not important.

this video was excellent. I was wondering how the end cup and rail were installed. I was about to try something way more complicated, but watching this video showed how to do it so easily. Saved me lots of time and re-work.

I was going to pay a contractor a ton of money to build a chain link fence. My property is quite big. 2400 square meters. That would cost me a lot for the fence. Now I will build it myself. Thanks for this superb video. 👏

Great video started measuring but found out the gate is a different width, so I would have added that in the video for the terminal post. I’m actually starting with the gate first. Also you should add how you actually straighten out the tension wire, I had to search a different and found how you guys did that.

Thanks so much for this well done presentation. I have come back to site video so many times to refresh my forgetful brain.

There are a couple mistakes one the bottom wire needs to be stretched and the nuts to the inside. Also no need for dry cement on the bottom of the hole. 30 years experience.

I build wooden fences normally,this is so much simpler than that,thank you I think I'll start referring these fences instead 🎉

Wow... you made it looks so easy!

Thanks for helping me save money and build confidence! DIY is the best!!!

Lots of things are done the hard way. You don't need to square the fence using the 456 method. you can pull a line off the house and use the eye method. This is better than having a perfect square that does not match or line up with the house. Set you corner poles and pull a string. This is the string you will use the set the rest of the poles. You only need a hole about 8-12 inches deep. You can use hand hole diggers and get the correct diameter hole. Place the pole (terminal or line) in the hole and use a 9in level (or corner level in you prefer) to level the pole to the string. Then you take a pole driver and drive the pole down until the top of the pole is 45in out of the ground (for 4ft fence, this gives you the correct height once you install the top rail and loop cap). This also puts the bottom of the fence just above the ground and you don't have a 6in gap on the bottom(it defeats the purpose of a fence) Place DRY cement in hole to ground level and cover with dirt. You can install the rest of the fence immediately and don't have to wait for cement to set up. Some other small things are: you need to tighten the tension wire with a puller or other method, you can roll the fabric out standing up(its difficult to stand up 200ft of fence up), you only need about 5 ties and pig rings(on the bottom) for each section. I'm sure there are other things but this should get you started. And yes, i install fence professionally and have never had one fall down/blow away or have a complaint on the way it was installed.

Wow,very cool,enjoyed the simple yet effective video. Thanks and thanks Lowe's

The best part of this was reading the comments. LOL

Thanks this vedio made a difference start my project today, it was great not finish as yet but looking really good.

Wow. Well done. Very clear instructions with video. This is work. Not that easy. But you both made is a couple. Project. Thanks well done.

Really beneficial for my farm project. Thank you

It always looks so clean and easy in videos...its a filthy pain in the ass to do!

Excellent job . Thanks for sharing

Building codes for a fence. Big gov

thanks for making this video

Thx so much for this video.

You read my mind!!! Thank you

Very helpful video. Thanks!

Excellent thanks for sharing this beautiful tutorial with good Explanation,Thanks good job!!!.

Great job very professional

Awesome video. Very professional guys

I have yet to do a job where the everything is so simple. The ground is perfectly flat ,not even a pebble in the holes u dug, no bushes, trees ,no hills ,no posts on the side of a drop off, all the room in the world to roll your fence out. There's more too but I got to go dream of getting at least 1 job that looks like this once in my career.

Awesome video! Doing this weekend...

OMG! This is the most informative video ever lol i feel like a pro now TY

definitly need a bttm rail or in time it just warps all to hell , this is where precision comes in

excellent job, Thanks for sharing the video

Lowes ,you are doing a great job

That was great. They taught it so well thanks going shopping.

perfect and smooth work 👍

What a nice place. Surrounded by many Trees . Cold Wind blows ☺️

thanks alot

Great tutorial, we’re buying a house and the poles are up so all I need is the chain link fabric, yaaaaa

Informative for sure .. would be very helpful for the DIYers ... but what it does not specify is what tricks-n-tips to adopt if we have an uneven landscape with a slope. Should we consider special arrangements ?? If so what are they !!!

They make it look so easy

Top class video and advise 👍👍

Thanks, that was awesome.

There's something strange about watching people work with ALL new tools.

Waned to 3d model a chain link fence & I landed here & watched it completely. Now I know the terms & ready to build a real one as soon as I can afford all these & a land :D But still liked it cos informative.

not a single rock in sight. beautiful

Great video-just what I needed!

pretty sure it's illegal here in Aus to build a fence without drinking beer

Good Job. Absolutely Amazing.

Looks great

Thank you! I close on the sale of my house in about a month and I know the chain link fence needs to be updated.

Very useful Thank you

i'm in love.

Really great video! Thx

This is a outstanding video.

This was very informative in how to break thru chain link fences.

Excellent!

Nice job

Superb jobs keep it up. Regards

Now I have an idea how to do it, thanks

I just installed a chain link fence in front of my house. My neighbors have complained about the way it looks, but I don’t care, it keeps my pit bulls in! My neighbors should be happy my dogs don’t attack them anymore!

👏👏👏 MAGNIFIQUE!!!

I was like, I will put up the fence on Saturday morning and kick back on Sunday.

excellent job, I am impressed and inspired to do this on my land. Thanks for sharing the video

Good job thank

Great video

Thanks for the video. I have a question. how to measure the space necessary for the installation of potos to install a door? Thank you for your answers.

The video should start with a visual identification of all parts along with an audio-plus-typed coupling of the terms used for those parts.

A family member recently bought a new house and asked the contractors to build a 6-foot high privacy fence around the back yard. They specifically told the contractor they wanted a 6-foot high fence, but that it must be level across the top of the fence. The backyard sloped or varied in height by about 1-2 feet in certain areas. When the contract was done, the home owners complained that the top of the fence was only 4-feet high in some areas and they were concerned their dog would jump the fence. They demanded the contractor tear down the fence and rebuild it. He refused saying he built it as per their specs. If they wanted it 6-feet high across every section of the fence, they’d have to pay to have up to 2-feet of dirt removed at a high price as he’d have to use a Bobcat, dump truck, and labor costs. They blew a fuse! Moral of this story. Make sure you both understand what the end result will be or look like.

Thanks for the detailed video.. Quick Question: I am planning to fix a 3feet chain link mesh on a existing compound wall .. can I keep spacing of 1.5mtr ? and safety poles every 4.5 mtr ?

As someone who works in a fencing company we normally mix the concrete in a wheel barrow and dig all line posts,corner and gate posts with diggers and I forgot to mention 4 concrete bags in one wheel barrow to mix under a min which at first was hard but I learn that the human body can adapt to constant repetition of a physical activity resulting in a better shape then most who work inside and I do not mind it I’m not tryna brag or anything in just tryna point out differences I thought was odd but interesting

30 years ago i put a chain link fence. i dug the holes with a post hole digger, i mixed the concrete by hand with out gloves (big mistake wear gloves it will dry out your skin) before i put up the fabric you dug a trench on the fence line and back filled later , friend came over saw the fence line and asked how did you get that so level never seen one like that, i said i guess i got lucky :) i told him later extra work pays off and told him how i did it

There are so many parts of this that I would screw up

Nice

Great video. Gotta get my fence up for black bears!

did anyone else notice the very first post they set against the house looked out of kilter? it was either the post was not plumb or the house wasn't .

Check out the post at the gate. Uneven at the top and bottom. So much for plumb!

So what I’m hearing you say is just get a professional to do it. Got it!

Make sure to put your nuts + bolts into your tension bands properly so they're all facing the same way.

Great work! now that I know how to build a fence, all I need is a house 🤣

This is actually very helpful

nice

I'm watching this even though I never plan on building a fence

chain link fence is a very beautiful fence

Nice 👍

Excellent! Thank you!
