How to build an exposed post paling fence

[@emmuealhird5075]

VERY VERY NICE!!! 3 years later and still impressive to us.

[@candicemiller1032]

I’m a fencer, and this video is awesome. Great to see someone do it the right way 👍🏻The explanations nailed it ✅

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks heaps champ

[@seth3054]

That's the best fence I've seen on KZbin

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks legend. I appreciate it.

[@ironmanlifts]

I would fly this guy to the US to do my fence lol. I've seen a ton of fence videos, no one takes it to the next level like him.

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks champion. I appreciate. Happy to fly out on your dime 😂❤️

[@erickwatkins7394]

Proper way to install. I build fence for a living and it’s nice to someone show people how to do things the right way.👍

[@naileditfencing]

Too kind. Thanks champ 😊

[@billgregory-u9j]

this is the best fence Ive ever seen built , here in Canada theres no way carpenters would make such a great job especially the cut outs which to me are just the perfect idea to strengthen the rails well done Im going to copy this Idea, ill be the neighbourhood expert thanks man

[@YesiPleb]

I love this fence - so far this looks to be the top choice for what I'll run around the garden.

[@naileditfencing]

Nice mate. 👍

[@Jussayne]

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain what level your audience should be at And for the list of materials in list format at beginning And for showing as you go to see what your dealing with and why Very informative and I'm a new beginner yet I learned alot THANK YOU best fence video I've watched yet

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks heaps. So glad you enjoyed it.

[@NeilDunwoodie]

Hi mister nailing So grateful for your no- bull advice on building the exposed post paling fence. The stencil is a great idea as anything that relies on using a measuring tape to accurately transfer dimensions will never be as accurate as a stencil gauge. 😊

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks champ. Much appreciated

[@YamarajaDasaAlcyone]

Lovely job mate! Nothing better than a good looking wooden fence.

[@naileditfencing]

Thank you kindly 😊

[@achardjc]

Thanks for the great explanation of how you added the plinth at the bottom of the fence. I looked at a lot of other videos before I found this one. You have the best procedure I have found.

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks James. I appreciate the feedback

[@Travelinalong5553]

Thank you! I played it for my husband. We bought fence panels though but it gives him an idea in regards to installation. I like the bottom and top boards..

[@robd4526]

3 support rails vs 2 = a good thing when u get to 6' high ..... a top rail to cap it = good for aesthetics .... additional top & bottom rail width wise for show or to give it that framed look = great for aesthetics ......IMO all 3 of these steps not needed .... as it seems with all the extra designer (aesthetics) rails could have gone with 2 support rails instead of 3 or simply if the 2 wide designer rails is the look he wanted also could have done without that top cap rail .... and why cut n chisel EVERY post when I'm guessing North America can't be the only place that sells 25 cents galvanized fence brackets on which to hold those 2x4 support rails

[@JC-uk3bx]

Question brother do you use cement to keep post sturdy, and how deep is the hole?

[@MoaByte-v2z]

Good work. I'm amused at the difference in language even though we both speak English. I can see the merits of metric, for instance I can say "milli-pube" without losing my job.

much appreciate for sharing your skills and good details,just wondering how many mm is the distance between the posts you set up in this video?

[@shanecoetzee314]

Great job mate, looks awsome. What areyour post centre spacings? Keep up the good work. 👍

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks mate. I just did even spacing. But generally try not to go over 2.4m but with this style of fence, can go to 2.7m spacing

[@federicopoli7521]

Would that post lose strength cutting into it like that? Looks really good!

[@naileditfencing]

Not with cypress pine or hardwood posts. Just don’t do it to pressure treated pine

[@THE-GO-BRO]

Nice build

[@naileditfencing]

Thank you kindly 😊

[@jazzcardashcam]

Great video, but I got stuck because I didn't know how to cut the wood

[@naileditfencing]

😂 that makes doing the job a bit harder

[@caseyc4516]

Good looking fence..was that a roofing nail you was shooting out of that coil nailer??

[@damonjones4972]

Is it better for the checkouts to be on the edge of the posts or can they be in the middle and still be acceptable.

[@jarrodsmith124]

New South Wales follower here! What dimension rail timber and plinth size do you use? Wish we were in vic to hire you

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks mate. 75x50 rail. 150x38 plinth

[@tradernz4248]

Can you please come to NZ and teach tradies here how to do things properly?

[@naileditfencing]

Touchy subject. Every country builds fences different. All with pros and cons.

[@robynclarkdrums]

Hey again jason. Jusy wondering when yo wil be doing the video on setting posts. Also what sort of/teeth type of blade are you using on your circular saw to get a nice smooth cut ...Many thanks

[@naileditfencing]

Not sure when I’ll do a post setting video. Already heaps on KZbin. I use Diablo blades. I use the multi purpose blade which is good for cutting and ripping

[@robynclarkdrums]

@@naileditfencing thnak you so much.

[@acobiac]

Great video thanks. I was going to build a fence 2m high for the posts how deep 900mm. will be using 120x120 ccr DAR F7H4 posts? or 1m? I woudl assume with 500mm gap on rails going 4 rails instead of 3?

[@naileditfencing]

7-900mm deep is good. If using treated pine posts. Don’t do notches/check outs. Not strong enough material IMO. 3 rails should still be fine. 👍

[@scarboroughrider]

Can you put up the 7 hour long version please ?

[@naileditfencing]

You wanna watch the long drawn out process? 😂

[@Ranses2000]

You're a Champion!!!! Thanks

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks for watching 😁

[@airselectricalcontractors842]

great video - you dont use coil nails ???

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks. Yes I used coil nails when shooting on the palings

[@randomchannel7483]

Man Glitter, LOLOL. Great fence.

[@naileditfencing]

😂👍

[@MediaFXNoosa]

Thanks for the video is appreciated, couple questions ,, could i make one like this 1200 high as a pool fence and whats the distance between the fence posts

[@naileditfencing]

Check local regulations regarding pool fencing. Most spacing between 2.4-2.7m

[@MediaFXNoosa]

@@naileditfencing thanks Buddy

[@skuzy]

Dumb question. Could U put the cap on first . Then tuck the pailings underneath . Save having to cut the tops off

[@naileditfencing]

Not a dumb question. Would be easy to do that with no plinth, but not with the plinth.

[@StasGabov]

If a post is bowed by 20mm in the center, would you still use it? and how would u go about using it? Thanks

[@naileditfencing]

Preferably not use it. Might bow further with time.

[@marekkawaler3291]

Great video. Looking for the same palings and posts but can’t find. Where can I get them?

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks heaps. Where are you located? Materials vary sometimes depending on location

[@marekkawaler3291]

Thanks for your reply mate. I’m from Suffolk.

[@iroczinoz]

Since bottom plinth is not running level paling will not sit flush on plinth and have a small gap under one side of plinth no scribing? Why not run plinth level from one end to the next and if needed run 2 plinths so top of fence runs level? I see the nails went in through both palings are they not only supposed to go through the overlap paling in this case the 100mm paling?

[@CainMarko-ob9go]

Loved the video. Very informative. Can I ask what was the length, diameter, shank type and finish of the nails that were used to attached the palings? Also, was a different length of nail used for the base palings compared with the covering palings? Thanks in advance.

[@danielbeanham1551]

Did you rip abit of an angle on the bottom of the palings to make them flush with the slope of the plinth or because it wasnt much ya cant really notice it? My project has more of a noticable gradient so im thinking of rippin the bottoms to suit the fall to make a better finish?

[@naileditfencing]

Was very slight so no cut at bottom. Good to do with steeper slope 😁👍

[@MrChessgator]

Does not cutting notches in the post weaken the structure? Might be better to use steel connectors!

[@naileditfencing]

Nope. Not with cypress pine. I wouldn’t suggest with treated. There are structures that are hundreds of years old with notched timber. Just depends on the application and how well it’s done 👍

[@danielmartin8516]

Great vid, Thanks! Just wondering if you ever put 150mm palings on top of 150mm palings for a fence?

[@naileditfencing]

I have by request from the person who hired me. I don’t recommend as the 150 lapped board has more surface to cup.

[@danielmartin8516]

@@naileditfencing No worries! Thanks heaps for the reply.

[@zukomanuko]

Nice! How long did it take to finish from start to finish?

[@naileditfencing]

Can’t remember sorry. 😂 probably 5-6 days

[@zukomanuko]

@@naileditfencing good stuff. Lots of work. Cutting all the notches and seating the rails takes time. Good work!

[@diederik_theo]

Dumb qustion, since the plinth is out of level to match grade, do you need to match cut your paling ends to follow the plinth? Or does leaving the paling ends square not affect asthetics? Nice job by the way.

[@naileditfencing]

Not a dumb question. For gradients that aren’t too extreme, no need to cut. But if there are gaps between the paling and the plinth, then it’s a good idea to cut the bottoms.

[@diederik_theo]

@@naileditfencing thanks for clarifying, been watching your videos a lot. Getting ready for a killer exposed post and palling fence build here at my house this spring. From the land of Michigan, just south of Detroit, along the river.

[@ale189251]

What I dident understand was how the pailings got straight when the plints at the bottom was not leveled. ?

[@naileditfencing]

I used a level on the palings

[@KristyFell]

Where is the video for installing posts?? I’ve searched multiple times and can’t find it. Please post the link.

[@patrickfuller7012]

Hey mate, bloody great work. Really impressive. Can I ask, are they 125mm posts? And how thick is your 150mm plinth.

[@naileditfencing]

Yep. 125x125 cypress. Plinth is 150x38

[@StasGabov]

One more question if you don't mind. I noticed you are using 12mm Palings. I am building similar fence but only have 19mm palings available. Have you build this type of fence with 19mm palings? What are your thoughts on using 19mm palings instead of 12mm? Thanks

[@naileditfencing]

I haven’t used 19 mm palings for a lapped paling fence. But I have used 25 mm plinth boards as palings for an acoustic flat paling fence. Just make sure you have a plinth board, thick enough to support the palings. A 50 mm sleeper should do it.

[@karleenemery8775]

What size plinth do you use fella?, nice video that.

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks. 150x38mm

[@mrvynny]

[@naileditfencing]

Thanks legend 😁

[@MonicaVandenberg1]

thanks so much from Jason. We have a small space 2.5 meters wide - nobody wanted to quote a small job for a swing gate. I would really appreciate your insights. What would you recommend Gal posts or wood. it is a small inner city property and backs onto lane way. LOVE YOUR THOUGHTS.

[@naileditfencing]

Honestly it’s up to you. But steel would be your most solid option

[@rob2996]

Awesome skills. If you had a mullet this video would be viral haha

[@naileditfencing]

With the lockdown, I certainly have a mullet in the making. 😂

[@raymond0996]

Should fence rails be staggered?does flat top post ，water will stay？cheers

[@naileditfencing]

Rails don’t have to be staggered in a checked out fence. But still a good idea. Due to post spacing because of underground obstructions, I couldn’t stagger rails.

[@stevearcher612]

Do I need to leave a gap if I'm going to over lap, if yes how big of a gap do I need? Also how long after stalling the pailings can I paint them?

[@naileditfencing]

If using the same materials I’m using. Gap is about 60mm. Leave 1-3 months before painting 👍

[@stevearcher612]

@@naileditfencing Thank you. When you nail on the 100mm pailings do you nail through the 150mm as well or do you miss the 150mm and go straight into the railing?

@@stevearcher612 nail through mate. 👍

[@stevearcher612]

@@naileditfencing Thank you for your help 👍

[@donsmith5462]

I don't like that bottom rail being attached with that small scab. Why didn't you rout out the bottom rail like you did with the other 3 rails?

[@karleenemery8775]

That would work, over laping, if you had only 150 wide palings? Struggling to find 100mm wide palings.

[@edgarasdrozeanu7451]

What would you say if if someone would make poles of 2x4, lime in the picture?

[@naileditfencing]

What do you mean by poles?

[@StasGabov]

is plinth thats sitting on the ground level ?

[@naileditfencing]

You are correct. It’s the board that the palings/pickets sit on.

[@fixitfern5339]

Looks good . But no need to cut the 4x6 or 6x6 post. You can just nail the 2x4 right on to the 6x6 post. Post would be stronger if you dont cut it. And thats alot of extra work for nothing.

[@andrewmiller9207]

But notching looks cleaner.Or you can but rails to the post and use a Teco connector, just not as clean looking.

[@cliffordautomotive]

How would you join a corner with this?

[@jjonescatch21]

On any given row of fence rails at the corner post, stop one rail back the thickness of your rail which will allow for the opposing rail to come into this and be fastened into that rail’s end grain. Hope that makes sense?

[@cassarj76]

What was your post centres please ? Thanks

[@naileditfencing]

Can’t remember. About 2.5m

[@simontaylor2525]

Not easier to just use panels and attach them to the insides of the posts?

[@naileditfencing]

Nope

[@Tronzoid]

Don't quite understand what the point of using a string line is after placing the plinths down on the ground. Why not just use the plinths to mark where the droppers need to go? Then you wouldn't have to move them all twice. P.S. Please invest in a couple saw horses and eyes and ear protection.

I’m showing the process, so anyone can do it over any distance.
