So, you are a happy owner of a new land! Work no end, but this is a very pleasant job. Where would you start? With the construction of the fence, of course! If you have enough money, it is better to hire experts (though not the fact that will do well and "forever"). But if the budget is limited and you are full of energy and enthusiasm, we can build the fence yourself. The process is time consuming, but quite feasible — you're not the Great Wall of China to build, in the end)) In this article I will talk about the advantages and disadvantages of various types of fencing, and the construction of the fence with their hands.
How to build a fence?So, after consulting with his wife (and mother-in-law)), you are finally "ripe" for construction. Now you need to decide what kind of fence do you need? If you wish to hide from the outside world and your country oasis, then build a fence of brick, corrugated sheet, concrete slabs or a high boards. If you just need to protect your property — consider options for the establishment of a picket fence, metal grilles, fences from a grid-rabitsy, a low fence of boards or even make a fence beautiful green hedge.
And don't forget, in addition to its primary purpose — to protect territory and to protect it from unauthorized entry, a fence needs to perform an aesthetic function. So pay attention to his appearance. Before I talk about the construction of suburban fence with their hands, let's do a quick comparison of the most common types of fencing.
Wooden fenceAdvantages:
- the availability of the material;
- low cost.
Can be expensive to buy edged boards and their own handle (planed, sanded, treated with rot and paint). But you can buy ready-made wooden fence in the shop (cutting Board, by the way, will cost 3 times cheaper than finished products). You choose.
Disadvantages:
- short-lived;
- requires regular maintenance: repairs, repainting and so on.
Brick fenceAdvantages:
- very durable (will serve you faithfully for more than 50 years), the most durable of all types of fence;
- does not require special care;
- looks solid and respectable.
Disadvantages:
- very high material cost.
- you will need a solid Foundation, the construction of which is very expensive.
A fence of corrugated BoardAdvantages:
- the availability and variety of material: different size wave, different color, coating and other parameters;
- easy installation (requires no special Foundation);
- low price;
- practical;
- durable: will last you about 30 years.
Disadvantages:
- very unattractive appearance (especially inside).
So quite often when building fences with his own hands combine with the corrugated sheet brick.
It turns out durable and aesthetically pleasing.
A fence of concrete slabsAdvantages:
- excellent durability material: fence of concrete is 5-6 times stronger than a fence made of bricks and able to last for more than 100 years;
- undemanding in care;
- an impressive variety of decorative concrete slabs for the fences — you can choose any vending model.
Disadvantages:
- fail to build with their own hands from beginning to end, because for installation of this fence will have to involve the machinery and workers.
Fence of metal meshAdvantages:
- reliability: modern metal mesh for fences consist of galvanized iron rods with PVC coating;
- sufficient durability (service life up to 30 years);
- does not create shadows in the garden.
Disadvantages:
- do not close your site from indiscreet passers-by.))
Building a fence at the dacha with his handsAnd now I present to you two ways of building the fence with their hands, the most popular among gardeners and do not require serious financial investments.
Wooden fence:
Detailed master class on building a wooden fence with their hands represented here, so I now just very briefly remind the main points.
- Define the boundaries of the site.
- Drill holes for support columns to a depth of 0.7-1.0 m at a distance of 2 or 2.5 m from each other.
- Inserted into the holes of the posts, using a level (or plumb) check that they are standing vertically.
- Strengthen (can be concrete or cement).
- On the pillars at the top and bottom nail or fasten screws rail section 50 x 50 mm or greater.
- Install the crossmember.
- The finished design fasten edged boards (you can take the Board a cross section of 85 x 145 mm) at a distance of 1.5-2 cm from each other.
- Begin to paint.
Very important! Before proceeding to the construction of such fence, all wooden parts should proolifit 2-3 times or cover other antiseptic agent.
A fence of corrugated Board:
So you bought your favorite metallicity and ready for construction of a fence of corrugated Board with your hands. Start with trivial markup of the site and follow the instructions:
- Around the perimeter of the drill holes in the ground to a depth of 1-1. 2 m.
- Into each hole pour a layer of crushed stone or gravel with a thickness of 20-25 cm.
- Install in the pit metal poles with a diameter of at least 50 x 50 mm and adjust them vertically.
- Strengthen the pillars of concrete or cement mortar.
- To the posts at an equal distance from each other transverse weld lag (2-3 pieces) of the profiled metal pipe.
- On the basis of secure sheets of corrugated sheets (they are usually attached to the screws).
It is worth noting that to fix sheets of corrugated Board on the screws is not desirable, because savvy criminals can easily twist this fixture in your absence and steal sheets of corrugated sheets. Alas, such cases are not uncommon. Therefore it is better to use special rivets for metal that will not loosen no thief.
Some important nuances:the Quality and durability of any fence depends on the pillars of the pillars on which it is based. So experts suggest to use strong metal support even for wooden fences so the fence will last much longer.
Consider where and how you will mount the gate what they are: sectional, hinged, folding or other. And then you can use the classic solution for any kind of fence: a rectangle for the gate welded of metal pipe profile shall be slightly smaller in size niche in the fence for the arrangement of a gate. The size of the gate define yourself. Sheathing the profile of the material from which you craft fence: boards, decking and so forth. But you can experiment))
Need to take care of double-sided handles on the gate and the latch (if you need it). The gates are attached to the supporting frame with durable metal sheds. If you put the invoice castle, on the gate you need to fix metal hinges for him. But if you have decided to make mortise lock, one of the supporting pillars (lock side) and on the door of the gate cut the holes for the lock and to his tongue.
