Beautiful fence made of wooden picket fence


The history of the use of wood by the Slavs for the construction of houses, utility structures, fences and fences is rooted in the distant past. Even then, our ancestors understood all the advantages of using this unpretentious natural material for construction. From it were built houses, windows, roof, floor and household items. And, despite the modern variety of building materials, wood still holds a leading position as a reliable eco-friendly building material.

Today we’ll talk about a wooden fence fence. Such a fence performs several functions at once: it limits the territory of our site, and at the same time adds coziness and tranquility, decorating our house.

In addition, this fence has several more advantages. Firstly, a wooden fence is very versatile in the matter of combination with the design of the house; it looks great next to a house of stone, brick, next to concrete and metal elements of the facade and decoration. The next advantage of such a fence is the ease of installation, because anyone can build a fence from a picket fence summer residenthaving no construction experience. And finally, such a fence is very easy to maintain and operate; all care is reduced only to periodic coloring of its surface.
First you need to prepare the materials necessary for the construction of a wooden fence. Amy will be: pillars for support (metal or wood), shtaketin, transverse wooden boards. In addition, we will need the following tools: a drill or a shovel, a drill, screws, and a screwdriver with a saw.

Shtaketins - finished from the store or created do it yourself? Which option would you not choose, each of them has its pros and cons. In the case of buying ready-made shtaketin, the process of building the fence is noticeably simplified and accelerated, because all we need to do is just install them. However, when buying shtaketin, there is a risk of running into a poor-quality raw tree, which will "lead" over time. In the case of preparing the material for the fence with your own hands, you should be prepared that it will take a little longer to erect the fence than in the first version. The advantages in this case, of course, will be that you will be 100% sure of the quality of the materials used, and the fact that such a fence is guaranteed to serve you for more than a dozen years.

Having decided on the picket fence, you should understand exactly how much of it you need.To do this, measure the total length of the fence, its height, consider the planned distance between the shtaketin, the number of supporting posts.

Now you can proceed directly to the construction of the fence. To do this, at the place where the fence is planned to be installed, clearing is carried out, all garbage and foreign objects are removed. Next, the landmark thread is pulled along which we will build the fence.

It's time to engage in support pillars. To do this, pits of the order of 1 meter each, with a pitch between the pits of no more than three meters, dig with a drill or shovel. Why exactly three meters? Everything is very simple - if the posts are arranged in increments of more than three meters, sagging and deformation of the transverse beams, and with them the entire fence, is possible. We don’t want this, right?

Digging out the pit and installing supports there, you can do their strengthening. We recommend installing columns with subsequent pouring of their base with concrete, for greater strength and stability.

Having established the pillars, we proceed to the installation of transverse beams - veins. And here we have two options: either install the veins first, and then fix the picket itself on them, or collect one span of the picket with veins and such “sets” to fix them between the support posts.
Whatever method of installation of the fence you choose, the principle of fixing the shtaketin is always the same. Each shtaketin in increments of about five to seven centimeters is attached to the transverse veins with the help of self-tapping screws or even ordinary nails. If your support posts are made of iron, make sure that special angles are welded onto the posts to secure the cross members. To these corners you will fasten veins with a picket fence.

And now, the fence is installed and you are one step away from the end of construction. It remains only to process the fence with stain and varnish, or paint it. This will not only protect it from moisture and the sun, from microorganisms and insects, but also give the fence a complete, original look.
Pay attention to the fact that the stain and varnish do not adhere well to freshly planked shtaketas, so the shtaketins should be slightly “roughened” with sandpaper.

After processing and opening with varnish, our fence is ready.

I like it when the fence is high and the dignities are not pointed, because I know the frequent cases of injuries about the sharp ends of small fences. We hope to deal with your instructions yourself. I would like to know what kind of tree to choose? Some say that the best material is acacia, and in order not to rot, it must be processed in boiling varnish.
The fence is not only beautiful but also economical, I know from my own experience. The only thing I would recommend, if you are installing wooden poles, is it is not concrete poles that are concrete, but metal pipes about a meter long of appropriate diameter that are concrete, and the prepared poles should be driven into them. Kill 2 birds with one stone - and there is no contact of wood with soil and at any time any support can be replaced. Good luck.
The fence is certainly beautiful, and there’s no problem making it yourself, even a woman with a child will be able to handle it. The question is where to install such a fence? If only in complete deafness, where not a single mile away. And in the village, even at the dacha, such fences for the general viewing of the courtyard do not appeal to me.
Such a fence is an alternative to concrete eurofences, which are much more expensive than wood. Such a fence will look great if the house is also built of logs. Yes, and as the author wrote, it is not difficult to install it yourself, unlike the same Euro fence, which to install independently without special skills will not be easy.And the fence made of wood does not need special care, except for painting of course.
What a smooth and neat fence the master did. Last year we also did something similar, but we did not achieve such beauty. Board to board turned out. We bought shtaketins, there was no desire, no strength, no time to make them with our own hands. Perhaps that is why the fence did not become ideal. There will be time, try to do it yourself.
If we talk about a fence made of wooden picket fence, I can immediately say that you cannot find cheaper and more environmentally friendly material. You can also install such a fence yourself without any problems, and then even come up with an interesting and atypical paint. I saw how whole paintings in the Petrikov style of flowers and berries are painted on the fences. It looks great.
Yeah. The fence, as a guest of the past, is like a retro-make. Now few real owners plan to circle the plot with a fence made of wood that eats fungus. Cottagers with access to free lumber, not hiring anyone, while it is still profitable to set. Homemade has the right to utility and extended life.
For the performance of purely decorative functions, the fence under discussion is too high, and as a serious fence, it is too "transparent". It may be worth planting some climbing plants near the fence.
