Customer Example:

Once the fence system is determined, we need to decide how we fix our posts. There are 3 main methods, depending on the ground you are planning to install your fence on.

• Core drilled into concrete is suitable for installation on thick concrete slabs. A special core drill is required and may be costly. The advantage is a very sleek look once installed.
• Bolted down with a base plate is an easy DIY approach. A normal concrete drill is used to drill holes in which the fixing bolts will be glued into. This approach is suitable when installing your slat fence on a solid concrete slab.
• Ground set is also very suitable for DIY. You will need to dig a 300x300x600mm (widthxlengthxdepth) hole where the post will be positioned. The post needs to be cemented into the hole. This method is used for open grounds or soils.

You will need to respect following dimensions depending on the installation method:

• Core Drilled: Add 100mm to planned post height as the post will sit 100mm deep inside the core hole
• Base Plate: Deduct 10mm from planned post height as the base plate will sit on top of the solid ground and is 10mm high
• Ground Set: Add 600mm from planned post height as the post needs to sit 600mm inside the hole
