How to put up fence from metalprofile

Metalprofile — ideal material for site protection. It is practical, durable, protects from views of strangers and from street noise. Mounting of fence is not difficult therefore it can quite be executed also by own forces.

It is required to you

  • - metalprofile with thickness of plate from 0.5 mm;
  • - metal columns;
  • - metal logs;
  • - shovel;
  • - sand-gravel mix;
  • - cement;
  • - welding machine;
  • - self-tapping screws;
  • - construction level;
  • - drill.

Instruction

1. Mark site perimeter by means of wooden pegs and rope. Hammer pegs at distance 2-3 meters from each other and pull thread. That there were no controversial issues with neighbors, do protection marking between sites in common, according to the plan of borders.

2. Define arrangement of rod posts. The first of them has to be at the corner of the site, and the others through 2.5 m from each other.

3. Dig out holes for columns of 20-50 cm in depth. Fill sand-gravel pillow on bottom of each of them.

4. As rod posts it is possible to use square profile of 600х600 mm and 2 mm thick or metal pipes. Put columns in the prepared holes, level them by means of the level or plumb. That they have not mixed up, strengthen stone or big pieces of beaten brick.

5. Prepare cement slurry. Knead it at the rate of 1:3. More convenient for this purpose to use the concrete mixer, but perhaps and to make mixture manually as not really large amount of concrete is required to fill in holes.

6. Fill in holes with the prepared concrete level with earth surface. Let's solution stiffen.

7. To give to metal columns big durability, it is possible to make around them timbering and to fill in with solution. Continuous footing which will strongly fix basis for fence from metalprofile will turn out.

8. Cut off pieces of profile for prozhilin. Weld cross-pieces on rod posts in 2 or 3 rows depending on protection height.

9. To make fence from front side of the site more attractive after cross-pieces are welded, impose columns with facing brick.

10. Before starting mounting of metalprofile, make sure that solution has completely dried. On it several days will be required.

11. You make fixture of sheets to cross-pieces by means of special self-tapping screws which have the heads covered with color polymer (they can be picked up in tone of profile) and also rubber gaskets. Length of self-tapping screws for fixture of professional leaf has to be 35 mm. Attach the sheet to cross-pieces and fix it by self-tapping screws with step to 450-500 mm.
