Step 2: Mark Your Fence Layout
First, decide where your fence will go.
- Measure and mark the spots where each post will be placed.
- Use string lines to create a straight and even boundary for the fence.
- Make sure you’re following local regulations and property lines!
Tip: Space each post according to the size of your panels. Standard spacing is about 6 to 8 feet apart.

Step 3: Dig the Post Holes & Set the Posts
Now, let’s secure the foundation!
- Dig holes at least 2 feet deep (or deeper, depending on local codes) for stability.
- Place the aluminum posts into the holes and use a level to ensure they are straight.
- Pour concrete mix into each hole and allow it to set (usually 24 hours).
Pro Tip: If you’re working on a sloped surface, adjust your post heights accordingly to maintain an even look.
Step 4: Attach the Aluminum Rails
Now that your posts are solid and secure, it’s time to install the aluminum frame rails!
- Start with the bottom rail and secure it to the posts using your drill and screws.
- Double-check alignment with a level before moving on.
- Repeat the same process for the top rail.
This creates the structure that will hold the vinyl panels in place!
Step 5: Insert the Vinyl Panels
Time to install the vinyl panels for that sleek, modern, and private look!
- Carefully slide the vinyl panels into the aluminum rails.
- Use a rubber mallet to gently tap them into place.
- Secure everything with screws if necessary.
If you need to cut panels to fit a specific space, use a circular saw with a fine-tooth blade.
