Installation
Important Reminders:
• We recommend installing 1 post and section at a time but other methods work too. Alter this method
to suit your installation needs.
• Prior to construction, check with your regulatory agency for special code requirements in your area.
• Contact your utility supplier to locate and mark underground lines before excavation.
• Sketch out the layout of your fence and calculate the number of panels, gates and posts required (to
finish a fence run, one extra post kit is needed).
• Careful planning and measuring of your fence is essential. Keep in mind that moving posts after the
concrete sets is extremely difficult.
Fast2k Tip! Wherever concrete is used in installation, use Fast2K instead to simplify the process.
Fast2K is a concrete alternative that is much easier to use and set.

Fast2K Tip! For Fast2k install, dig hole 6”wide x 32” deep.
2. Dig your second hole 96” on center to your first hole, your third hole 96” on center to your second
hole, and so on. Be sure to dig only 3-4 holes at a time to ensure proper spacing.

mixing instructions on the bag. Pour around post and plumb during expansion.
