Stepping Method
With the stepping method, panels remain horizontal and posts
are extended to accommodate the variance in terrain. Longer
post may be required. (A 6' wide panel can be stepped up to 12"
per panel using our 102" post. For steeper elevations our 142"
post is required.)
1. Attach panel brackets on one side of post at standard
height
2. Determine step and attach panel bracket to other side of
post
3. Set first post on the uphill side and work your way down
4. Just as with level installation use panel stiffeners as
spacers to set next post
5. Level stiffener and adjust bracket if necessary
CAUTION: Molded fence panels are not engineered for use as a
retaining wall. If burying the bottom of a panel the ground level
must be the same on both sides.
