frame it all Valla Cap Composite Privacy Fence Installation Guide

The Horizontal Fence Post will measure 8ft in height by default.
The post can be cut down to size using a circular saw blade. We
recommend using an 80-tooth Cermet saw blade. The post slot covers
can be cut down in the same way. When installing the horizontal
fence boards, 2 boards are required for each foot of fence
height.

12 boards for 6ft height. 8 boards for 4ft
height.

Hard Surface Installation on Concrete:

For hard surface installation, it is strongly advised to install
the Fixing Post Support on a flat and solid concrete slab, minimum
8 inches width. Do not install the fixing post support on a
concrete block.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

installations?

A: No, the Valla Privacy Fencing is designed for vertical use
only.

Q: How many boards are needed for each foot of fence
height?

A: Two boards are required for each foot of fence height. For
example, for a 6ft height fence, you will need 12 boards.

Q: What tools are necessary for installation on hard
surfaces?

A: Tools required for hard surface installation include a
concrete drill with a 3/8 masonry bit, M12 anchors & screws,
and a power drill with a 3/16 drill bit among others.

FENCE INSTALLATION GUIDE
Before securing any posts or making any cuts to your material, first identify the property limits and establish the perimeter of your fencing. Determine the length of each fence run. Horizontal Boards can be cut to size for fence runs that are not divisible by the default 6ft length of the panels. Determine the distance between each post. Mark all gate placements and consider the swing path of the gate door.

FENCE INSTALLATION GUIDE
(A) INSTALLATION WITH FIXING POST SUPPORT ON CONCRETE SLAB
Position the first fixing post support (A1). Mark all 4 holes with a marker and drill 4 inches into the concrete using a masonry drill bit (10mm or 3/8″). The concrete slab that you are installing onto should be a minimum of 8″ in width.
Fasten each anchor bolt (A2) to the fixing post support by removing the nut and washers from the bolt, then threading the bolts through the bottom of the fixing post support. Fasten each anchor bolt to the support using the nut and washers. Once all 4 bolts are secured to the fixing post support hammer all in, one strike at a time each to keep the support level as it goes into the ground.
Repeat this process to secure the second fixing post support to the ground. It is essential to have an 1800 mm (71″) gap (+/- 5mm or 0.2 inches) on center between the two fixing post supports.

(A) INSTALLATION WITH FIXING POST SUPPORT ON CONCRETE SLAB
Use the board stopper (A3) to mark holes on the aluminum post and fixing post support. Then using the marks, pre-drill holes into the post and fixing post support.
If this post will be an end section or corner post, insert a post slot cover (A7) into the appropriate slot. For windy areas, a silicone caulk can be applied to the top of the channel before inserting the slot cover to eliminate potential rattling.

Once your posts are secured, insert the bottom support rail (A10) into the slots of your posts until it rests on the board stopper.
Then, slide the boards (A8) into the slots of the post. Each board should nest into the one below it. When installing the boards, it is necessary to leave a gap of 9mm | 0.3 inches between the fence board and the center rib of the posts on each side (see the figure on right).

FENCE INSTALLATION GUIDE
(B) INSTALLATION IN-GROUND CONCRETE FOOTING
FOR IN-GROUND CONCRETE FOOTING INSTALLATION, WE RECOMMEND TWO (2) PEOPLE
Post installation in a concrete footing must be done with care. We recommend using a fast-setting concrete.
Begin by identifying your property limits and establishing the perimeter of your fence. Determine the length of each fence run and mark the distance between each post. Make sure to create an 1800mm (5.9 ft) spacing (+/- 5mm or 0.2 inches) between each post on center.
Mark the perimeter of your fence by placing stakes around your perimeter and tightening a line around them. Then, beginning at your first post hole, use a tape measure to mark each post hole location.
Note: For non-90 ° angle corners, use 2 posts in the post hole and size hole appropriately.

FENCE INSTALLATION GUIDE
(B) INSTALLATION IN-GROUND CONCRETE FOOTING
Before digging any post holes, make sure you are abiding local code requirements for exact post hole width and depth guidelines. The diameter of the hole should be a minimum of 12 Inches and the depth should be a minimum of 20 Inches. Dig the post hole using an Augur Drill or other Post Hole digger. While digging the post holes, be sure to keep your Post Hole digging tool straight and vertical. Note: Do not pour concrete at this step. Reminder: Call 811 before digging post holes to avoid damaging underground utilities.

FENCE INSTALLATION GUIDE
(B) INSTALLATION IN-GROUND CONCRETE FOOTING
Pour 3″ (72mm) of gravel into the post holes to allow drainage. Compact the gravel into the hole and ensure a level surface.
Confirm that the depth of your post hole are consistent and comply with local building code. Adjust depth if needed.

FENCE INSTALLATION GUIDE
(B) INSTALLATION IN-GROUND CONCRETE FOOTING
Before placing the posts into the holes, the board stopper (A3) and Post Slot Cover (A7) need to be installed onto the post.
Use the board stopper (A3) to mark holes on the aluminum post. Then using the marks, pre-drill holes into the post and secure the board stopper with the screws provided (A4). The board stopper must be above ground. Take care to precisely measure to portion of post that will be underground and install board stopper appropriately. The position of the board stopper must be consistent across all posts and will determine the amount of space under your fence panels.
If this post will be an end section or corner post, insert a post slot cover (A7) into the appropriate slot. For windy areas, a silicone caulk can be applied to the top of the channel before inserting the slot cover to eliminate potential rattling.

(B) INSTALLATION IN-GROUND CONCRETE FOOTING
Use your string perimeter to guide the placement of each post. Once again, ensure that your spacing between posts is 1800mm (5.9ft) (+/5mm or 0.2 inches) on center and that your board stopper is above ground level and consistent across all posts. Before pouring concrete ensure that your post is plumb.

(B) INSTALLATION IN-GROUND CONCRETE FOOTING
Once the post is positioned in the hole, pour concrete into the hole. Dome the concrete around the post to prevent water pooling over time. Take this time before the concrete completely hardens to make any last adjustments to ensure the post is plumb.
Tip: The bottom rail can be used to space out post distance during the cement curing process.
