Project Description
Scope of Work
Site Security & Fence Demolition
- Establish equipment and trucking stage point each morning
- Remove existing rusted, buried, and falling chain-link fence
- Remove small organic materials
- Cut one small area of fence to allow panic gate exit
- 2 working days
Prep & Installation of New Fence
- Set 4” square 11-gauge post in concrete footings at 8’ on center along sloping grade
- Measure each slope for custom fabricated fence panels
- Custom build dual top rail single bottom rail 8’ high with 1-1/2” Square pickets spaced 3-3/4” on center
- Hot-dip galvanize after fabrication, followed by powder coat
- Weld panels to posts and touch up welds with matching paint
- Pave for new panic gate walkway
- Install one exit gate with panic bar to match existing materials
- 14 working days
Challenges
- Working on heavily sloped hillside- limited working space
- Custom 3 rail fence panels following dramatic grade all hot-dip galvanized
- Did I mention it was custom built to the slope of the hill? Meaning each picket and rail were spaced and aligned to follow a very specific slope prior to being hot-dip galvanized and powder coated
- Welding in dry high vegetation area- fire extinguisher on standby!
- Any mistakes in measurement or construction would have resulted in weeks of time added to work date- there were none.
