This fence was made using overlapping technique for better privacy.
As many of you may know that planks tend to warp and shrink over time and picket boards end up with gaping slots. In my personal opinion, overlapping is probably the easiest way to create privacy. So what's your take on this?

Great build video. The contrast of colors and materials makes for awesome curb appeal. I have often seen this overlapping style referred to as board-on-board fence. A shout out from Houston, Texas via Little Rock, Arkansas.

Nice fence. I'll be doing something like it in the very near future that I had already been thinking of. One big driver is not having wood fence posts, that in a few years, rot in the post holes. If the steel/iron is the frame, it will last and fence boards can be replaced fairly easily as needed.

Since we live in California, we don’t have that problem with rain or moisture or mold per say. We mainly deal with dry rot and fence boards warping during hot summer months. In places where moisture is an issue I would recommend maybe using some other type of material? At one point I even wanted to use corrugated galvanized sheets of metal but I realized that it would look too industrial and decided to go with wood boards.

@balabay77
@balabay77 Жыл бұрын
Rectangular tubing goes in the center or the middle of the fence. Before you weld it in place use another square tubing (placing it vertically) to make sure your top and bottom flat metal pieces are flush with the middle rectangular tubing. In other words, the middle rectangular tubing that runs horizontally needs to be offset enough so that your wooden picket boards will be flush with the top, middle and bottom metal. Hope that helps.

For beginners I would recommend getting a flux core welder to practice your welds. MIG welders are great for these types of projects. I’ve tried stick welder and it was not for me. Many hardware stores carry them at different price ranges depending on your budget and the type of outlet setup you have at home. I had to run a new 240 outlet 50 amp breaker for more powerful unit but if you can only use 110 outlet that will also work but you won’t be able to weld thicker metal. Good luck with your choice and thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers

For anyone using this awesome design to build their fence, I have a few suggestions: 1- Try to avoid using the flat bar on top and bottom, use rectangular tubing. This will save you a lot of time and it will look much nicer since you will not need to cut&grind the screws off and repaint the frame. This is my biggest regret. You cannot tighten the screws later on, if you do, you'll have to grind and repaint ! It is a little bit more money but you could use a 1"x3" rectangular tubing behind the 2"x2" tubes for a clean look. Or you can use 1"x2" tubing if you don't mind the stepped look. 2- Try to find panels that are already built and integrate them into your frame design. Cutting, staining, positioning, screwing in the picket boards take FOREVER. The cheapest pickets at Lowes (~$2/pc) are rough mill cut and dimensions vary about 1/4-1/2".. You may be able to find the extreme weather ones pretty easily, only problem with them is the pickets are stapled on both sides of the horizontal board, so you do not get full privacy. You can also do something similar to this design: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hom1ppR_oLZqjcU 3- Use self drilling screws. Saves a lot of time. 4- Use countersink drill bit after the hole is drilled to avoid cracks/splits in the wood 5- Use galvanized metal posts 6- You might need a cross bar on gates so that they do not sag. I had the most difficulty with making perfectly square gates for my driveway. This video skips that process which is very critical. The opposite corners distance on the gates need to be equal. 7- If you want self closing gates, buy the hardware first because you may not be able to make them work later on. I had to improvise with my design. Maybe I'll post a video to explain on this. Good luck with your project.

In my first project I’ve used rectangular tubing at the top, middle and bottom of the fence. Unfortunately I was only able to place boards side by side (used shiplap groove) because there wasn’t enough room for overlapping picket boards. By using flat metal strips in my next project, I was able to make enough space for overlapping technique. I didn’t mind extra work by cutting off sticking out screws because was going to paint the entire frame anyways so it all worked out fine. You can make your project however you see fit. There’s no right or wrong way of doing it. In retrospect, I should’ve done my first part of the fence similarly to what I did in this video.

You should definitely use tube instead of metal strips. I am about 80% done on a 89ft linear front fence using this gentleman's design, I really wish I did a couple things different. Avoiding the grinding and painting is definitely worth it. The grinded spots do not look good at all. Plus, If you replace a picket in the future or tighten the screw a little to close up some gaps, you will most likely have to use a different screw and have to cut and repaint...

Last time I did ship-lap grove and thought that wood boards would not shrink as much but I was wrong.

If you live in my area, here’s an address to the store where I got my 7 inch bullet hinges 700 Harbor Blvd, west Sacramento, California 95691 (916)372-1282 Maybe there are other metal suppliers who carry these hinges cheaper but yeah, online is always going to cost more for stuff because of the shipping cost.

Appreciate you question, regarding framing, I had some 2x2 square tubing left over from previous project so I decided to buy the same thickness. I found it much easier to weld thicker wall tubing rather than thinner walls, I don’t burn holes through thick walls. In my first project I chose to use .250 posts for main gates because they were six and a half feet in length so I figured that thicker wall post would be more sturdy? I feared that heavy gates might start sagging over time. So far so good with no issues. In My second project the gate was only 6 feet in length so I went with thinner wall posts. Since I was making these projects for myself, I wasn’t cutting corners as much as contractors do lol. Cheers mate.

Good question. If you are very serious about welding and planning on continuously create new projects than you can’t go wrong with Lincoln Electric or Miller Electric mig welders. If you just want to make one project than go with cheap harbor freight units. They work ok but can’t be used on regular basis because they have a cooling off cycle which is very annoying when you’re trying to weld nonstop. In other words, Cheap units are good for short welds. Anyways, about mentioned units are great for beginners and as you progress, maybe down the line you’ll buy more professional models? Good luck with your choice of welder and I encourage you to get that valuable skill of splicing two pieces of metal together lol. I’ve tried stick welder and it’s just not for me. Usually its meant for thicker metal so if you are planning on welding thinner metal then MIG or flux core wire is for you. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@creativevisualmarketing9454 No sir, I was using flux core wire welder in all my projects. If you get the chance to weld with both types of welders, you’ll see how easy it is to weld with wire versus stick welder. The beauty of using wire is that you can do one continuous weld if your machine can handle the amperage but with stick, once the electrode is spent than you have to stop to grab another one and that’s time consuming. I’ve learned how to weld by watching KZbin channel called weldingtipsandtricks That guy is a professional when it comes to welding. He is for more advanced welders but he explains different types of methods to make beautiful welds. Check him out for useful techniques and don’t be shy to check out other KZbinrs who also review many welding machines. MIG welding is great for beginners but TIG welding requires advanced, in depth schooling to master proper techniques to weld like a pro. All in all, welding is not that hard to learn and as a matter of fact, I didn’t take any special courses to learn how to weld but learned everything from KZbin tutorials. As always, safety first, then buy everything you need like consumables, safety clothing, metal materials and just go to town on practicing different types of welds. Don’t be stingy with practice welds because you’ll need to learn how to regulate heat so that you won’t burn through the material. Good luck and let me know how your skills progress. You can do this 🫡

@@balabay77 Thank you for the great info! I've already checked the 'weldingtipsandtricks' channel and subscribed. I'll do more research, but at this point, you've all but sold me on the flux core wire feed welding. It'll have to work on 110v as I don't have 220 available in my garage. My garage is primarily a woodshop, so I'll have to create an area that's free of sawdust and imagine I'll have to acquire some sort of welding table. I"ll check Harbor Freight Tools but will also look for used on Facebook Marketplace and eBay. I'm guessing a brand new setup will be quite costly. Thanks again for taking the time to help out a newbie!

Got the picket boards at Berco Redwood at 4560 Auburn Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95841 To get a good deal on metal tubing and stuff, I usually go to DelPaso pipe and steel at 5519 Raley Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95838. Prices went up on everything and today’s project can cost you twice as much as before. Good luck and let me know how it goes. Cheers

Question how far apart are the 4x4 studs? is it 8 foot or 10 foot?
@balabay77
@balabay77 Жыл бұрын
Hello Jerry My spacing between the posts were slightly less than 8 feet. Technically you can make any spacing between the posts you like, it all depends on your preference. Some people prefer longer sections, some stick to 8 feet sections. I basically measured my entire length of the fence and figured out approximate spacing of the posts so that the sections were evenly spaced out. In my case it worked out to less than 8 feet. Good luck and thanks for watching and commenting.

Is there any way to track the cost of iron materials to determine when is a good time to buy metal for the project?
@balabay77
@balabay77 2 жыл бұрын
Sorry buddy I missed your comment from a month ago. To be honest with you, I don’t think metal will go down in price any time soon. Everything comes from China and we are at a mercy of supply chain. You can probably shop around in your area and maybe get a good deal if you buy in bulk. The way things are right now I would just do the fence now if you really need to replace your old fence but if it’s still holding up ok then wait till housing bubble bursts and construction slows down. Demand on materials will diminish and you’ll probably save some money on metal as well as picket boards. Good luck with your project and let me know how it turns out.

How much did you spend on the materials?

I had some square tubing left over from my first project so basically this fence (in this video) came out to approximately 2 thousand dollars in materials. During pandemic prices jumped significantly on metal and wood so building a fence was a costly endeavor. Not sure what the prices are right now but I bet it’s still not cheap to fabricate this type of fence. To hire someone to do this job will cost 3 times as much. Anyways, thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers 🍻

How did you calculate the correct number of pickets between posts?
@balabay77
@balabay77 2 жыл бұрын
To tell you the truth, I didn’t know exactly how many picket boards I would need so I purchased approximate amount and once I knew how many boards it took to fill in one section that’s when I knew exactly how many more boards I was short. I believe I was only 10 picket boards short so it was just a matter of going to the lumberyard and staining them before installation. Thanks for watching and commenting.

How deep do the post need to be? How far apart should the post be?
@balabay77
@balabay77 Жыл бұрын
Posts need to be at least 2 and a 1/2 to 3 feet deep and you can make them as far apart as you like depending on the length of your horizontal tubing. For example, if you prefer that your posts are 12 feet apart than your can buy tubing ahead of time in that length or if you prefer 8 feet apart than make sure to get get your tubing in that length. It’s easier to cut horizontal tubing than to try and figure out where to put the posts so that being said, set your posts 7 feet 3/4 inches apart and just cut the cross beams (horizontal tubing) to fit in between the posts. Hope that makes sense and good luck to you. Thanks for watching.

I’m glad you liked my fence project. Appreciate the offer but it’s just too hot right now to work outside in this sweltering heat. End of September or beginning of October is the best time to start on something like this. Besides, my current variable job schedule always interferes with my personal life so I wouldn’t be much help to you. The best I can do is maybe offer you some helpful tips and tricks on welding your very own fence project. Thanks for watching and commenting. Good luck.

@@balabay77 thanks for the info. I have a question that you? I want to install the type of fence that you built in my front yard. The Sacramento county code states that you may build an ornamental fence up to 6 feet, but only wood fences in the front yard can only be 4 feet. Is the fence you built considered an ornamental fence or a wood fence? I believe it’s an ornamental fence considering you used metal post and beams but used wood planks to fill in the gaps. I want a 6 foot tall fence for my front yard so I want to go ornamental but I also want privacy I have small children and dogs.

@@jstunna4900 Not sure what type of fence they might classify it as but as long as you don’t go over over 6 feet than you should be all right. People use many types of materials to build a fence. There’s chain link, wroth-iron, corrugated galvanized sheet metal, plastic/Vinyl panels, and brick or stone construction. So it all depends on your personal preference but if you’re worried that your fence will stick out like a sore thumb in comparison to your neighbors fence than maybe go with picket boards? Call the county for clarification.
