Metal Post Wood Fence Attachment

First construct a metal gate frame using thinner steel pipes than you used for the posts to reduce the weight of the gate.

Placing 2 by 6 boards at the top bottom and middle of t posts on a fence increases the sturdiness over using wire for fencing. Often times extending the life of your wood fence by 2x 3x or 4x years. Assemble the frame pieces with galvanized steel corner brackets. The wood fence post adapter is a fixed wood adapter that is used to attach steel fence posts to wood panel fencing.

Post driver has handles on both sides of the weighted cylinder. The wood fence post adapter features a galvanized coating to prevent rusting and withstand the elements. Place the driver over the fence post and carefully lift and release as frequently as necessary to sink the post. To take advantage of the strength of the galvanized post on the hinge side of the gate you should attach the gate to it with the same gate hinges you would use with a chain link fence gate.

A post driver is a hollow 2 foot long metal tube with handles and a cap at the top. Pull the mesh taut and then attach it to the next post working your way from post to post until the fence is complete. By using metal fence posts with your wooden fence you will extend the life of your fence by multiple years. In this way a fencetrac fence is often a better investment over the long term because it may outlast three or four all wood fence replacements.

Attach 2 by 6 boards after the t post installation so as not to interfere with the post driver on the t post. The adapter is compatible with 2 3 8 in. Fit it over the post lift the tube and ram the top down on the posts. T posts are less expensive than wooden posts for vertical poles on a fence line.
