6' X 42" BOARD-ON-BOARD PRIVACY GATE – ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
42-3/4" W
PREPARATION:
Check local ordinances and regulations before building your fence.
Before construction, contact your local utility companies to mark any
underground cables and pipelines. In addition, it is a good idea to
discuss plans with any neighbors along your proposed fence line.
DIGGING POST HOLES:
Dig post holes 18" to 24" in diameter and 36" to 48" deep
(depending on local ordinance or expected frost depth in winter).
Backfill the holes with 6" of gravel.
The gate can be set up left swing or right swing. Consider swing
direction when determining which post will be your hinge post.
Mix concrete in the hole for the hinge post per the instructions on
the bag. Install the post into the hole and tap the post to the proper
depth. We recommend inserting a piece of 4x4 to support the gate
hinge post. Using a level, ensure post is plumb. Brace the post with
temporary supports as the concrete sets (per the instructions).
Repeat with second hole.
STEP 1
Lay out all four pickets so they face
the same way. Slide each picket into
the next, snapping into place.
