What You’ll Need

Before you dive in, gather these tools and materials:

• Aluminum slat fence panels
• Fence posts
• Drill & bits
• Level
• Measuring tape
• Screws & brackets
• Concrete (if you’re securing posts in the ground)

How to Install It – Step by Step

1. Map It Out

• Measure your fence line and mark where your posts will go.
• Clear any obstacles so you have a smooth workspace.

2. Set Up the Fence Posts

• Dig holes deep enough to keep the posts sturdy.
• Place your posts and fill them with concrete.
• Use a level to ensure they’re straight—crooked posts = bad vibes.
• Let the concrete set before moving on (patience is key!).

3. Attach the Brackets

• Once the posts are solid, secure the brackets at even intervals.
• These will hold your slats in place, so make sure they’re lined up properly.

4. Slide in the Slats

• Start placing the slats one by one, securing with screws if needed.
• Keep checking the spacing—consistency is what makes it look professional.

5. Final Touches

• Double-check that everything is secure and aligned.
• Tighten any loose screws and give it a final once-over.
• Wipe it down so it looks fresh!
