If there is any excess of the panels above the ends, use a jigsaw to trim it. Once you have drilled the holes, screw the panels to the posts through them. Determine the points on the panels where you need to drill holes for screwing the fencing to the posts and mark them. Now, it is time for the installation of the panels. Allow the posts to set for at least a day before you proceed. Once you are done with alignment and leveling, use the quick setting cement for concreting in the posts. If on a slope, make sure that both the post tops decrease in the slope at the same ratio. Use a plum bob by hanging it from a spirit level for ensuring that the posts are at a 90 degree angel from the level ground. You must align them properly and make sure that they are leveled with each other. Now, you must set the 4 x 4 posts in the holes. For improving the drainage for your lattice fence, apply 2” of crushed stone to the post holes’ bottom. Dig about 3’ down so that the tall posts above 6’ are provided more support and stability. If your wood lattice panels are 4’ x 8’ in size, you must space the post holes about 8’ apart.

If you are planning to install the panels that are freestanding, you must install posts for support. You must remember not to install your fences across or directly adjacent to the areas having underground wires or pipes. Hire a professional for surveying your property and marking your boundaries, so that you don’t loose your investment to any street expansion or sidewalk installation. Also, talk to your neighbors to decide the ownership and responsibility regarding the fences. Check the local rules related to allowed fence height and setbacks. First of all, you must determine the area where you plan to install the fence.
