Any summer resident and inhabitant of the cottage, one way or another, in our native country lives behind a fence, and it depends only on him whether this life will be pleasant or solid or miserable and non-staff!
Before you start building such a responsible building as a fence from a professional sheet (after all, people look at it and think about you based on this type), you should scroll through all the decent options in your head and calculate just in case there is enough cash. As a last resort, the last question can be solved with the help of a loan, which is provided by construction companies through friendly banks.
Another tricky question: "Tired of raking snow in front of the gate in the winter?" If the answer is yes, then you should immediately begin to choose a supplier of automatic gates.
This must be done before starting the construction of the fence from the profiled sheet for the simple reason that your gates will be made from one to two weeks. Especially if the size of the gate is non-standard! But the color of the fence from the profiled sheet is better to choose according to the color of the gate, since the latter is more difficult and expensive to change. Accordingly, it is better to select the type of paint according to the quality of the gate so that they do not stand out.
Now about the main thing - installing a fence from a professional sheet. There are several nuances here. It is better to build a fence from a profiled sheet on a strip foundation with a depth of 30 to 50 cm, depending on what kind of soil you have on the site. The more water, the deeper the foundation, the width of 25-30 cm with extensions at the posts. Of course, if you have stone clay, and a site on the mountain, then you can simply “hammer” pipes into the clay. In other cases, the fence from the profiled sheet will certainly begin to slowly but surely bend down, so that, in the end, the gate and gate will stop closing and opening. For automatic gates, foundation is required.
The next point is the choice of pipes. I advise you to choose square ones, bricks will be placed around them, but, as you know, they don’t happen round. Consequently, the consumption of mortar will be less, and the
brickwork of the pillars will look prettier. If you plan to install automatic gates, then do not skimp on pillars made of facing bricks. Do not skimp on it either, this is the most vulnerable spot of your fence! At the bottom of the strip foundation, it is better to make 2-3 rows of facing bricks. The fact is that professional sheets have standard sizes (if you take non-standard ones, it will turn out to be expensive, but there isn’t much point in this). Therefore, the sheets are raised higher, and the lower part of the fence is laid out with a
facing brick.Well, finally, he himself corrugated. Be sure to take the professional sheet painted at the factory, and do not let it be cut with a grinder! Otherwise, the fence will begin to rust next year, as the grinder heats the metal along the edge of the cut. For painting the veins, you can apply the paint on rust, but you will have to paint again every two years. And do not plant a fence on "any horrible" screws, in this case it’s stupid to save!
I want to note that the usual fence from a profiled sheet, without dividing poles, is also many times more economical than a wooden one. It does not need to be painted annually, and it does not “fall over” under the influence of rain and snow. In addition, the always aesthetic and neat appearance of your site will be complemented by a neat view of the fence from the profiled sheet!
