Metal fence instead of a wooden: ennoble portion
From the previous owners we got a rickety old wooden fence. For its function it does not mastered: through the yard ran stray dogs, some villagers also tried to cut off the path. Therefore, it needed urgent replacement.
Preparation and selection of the type of fence
Thickets around the house interfere with the normal work. Therefore, pre-cut down all the maple trees and bushes. Sam fence removed quickly. In some places it is held only by the plants.
Long time to choose the type of fence was not necessary. The husband of a welder profession, so we decided to do a metal fence and sheathe its profile. Net as the base material does not suit us, because I want to close the yard from prying eyes.
The windows need a low fence at home, so as not to block the view from the window and did not create a shadow in the house. The rest of the perimeter made height across the width of the sheet metal profile.
Beginning of work
Width of one of the fence sections made of 280 cm. The starting point was the size of jewelry that have decided to make to the low part of the house. Billets husband bent on a special machine at work, the design of picking myself with my consent.
Billets cooked at home from a profile pipe. Obtained legged rectangular frame length 280 cm and width 50 cm. To the top of the curved welded construction.
Frames for fences sections also cooked in the yard. Separately - the gate and swing gates of two parts. Make the most of the width to the yard would call not just a car. After welding and minimal cleaning seams, bases painted with paint.
installation
When all sections were prepared, we marked out the site. To install the excavated hole depth of about 40 cm at a distance of 280 cm. Prepared solution of cement and gravel. Section installed into prepared holes, covered much of the rubble and cemented. Home - comply level to the fence not turned heaped onto one side or one end of the second section was higher.
This was the case with a small and a large fence. Each section affixed to the adjacent welding. Then moved to the skin. Many secure the profile list with a projection over the pipe-base. But we frames were welded on the sheet size, so they are simply inserted into and secured with screws.
Latest sheathed the gate and the gate, make a hole for the post and hit the lock. Remains of the metal pipes welded on top of the husband of the fence sections.
This is not a whim but a precaution. In the village there is a wish free to take what is not under lock and key. Barn on the site is not, so it was necessary to do so. Pipes, we have successfully cut when the turn came to the construction of the porch.
