For faster service, have your item number (BL19107) and part name ready. A batch lot number (found on the end of the box) is also helpful if available — it helps us identify and resolve any production issues on our end.
Finishing Post: BL19109
Your panel comes with 1 post/anchor kit. You will need 1 BL19109 to finish the fence run.
If you are installing a gate, you will need two finishing posts — one to finish the run, and one to support the gate. See next diagram for help visualizing.

Post Pounder Considerations
Good
Sledgehammer
10-15lbs.
A basic option for very small projects. Requires two people to keep pipes level during installation.
Better
Manual Post Pounder
12-30lbs.
Best for projects with fewer than 10 pipes. Available online or at hardware stores.
Best
Gas Powered Pounder
Rentals are ideal for larger projects. Significantly reduces time and effort required.
Note:
Choose a post pounder with a barrel diameter of 3in or greater. Pounder barrel cannot be longer than 24in.
Tip! Don't use a 5lb sledgehammer — it won't generate enough force to be effective, and driving the pipe turns into a slow, frustrating grind.

Practice Makes Perfect
Start with one full panel — it's the best way to learn the process and confirm your spacing before committing. Once the first panel is complete and verified, drive your next pipe anchor and build each remaining panel one at a time.
Important: Before driving pipe anchors, check for underground utilities. In the US, call 811 or visit www.call811.com. In Canada, visit www.clickbeforeyoudig.com to find your provincial one-call centre.
Step 1: Set Stringline
Hammer a stake at each end of every fence run, then tie string between the stakes. This line keeps your pipes aligned as you drive them. Need help? Watch this video!
Step 2: Determine Slope
Check your yard's slope before driving any pipes
For slopes with a gap less than 3–4in per panel, simply trim the top of the post to follow the grade.
For slopes with a gap greater than 3–4in per panel, split your panel and purchase an extra post and brackets.
Step 3: Mark Pipe Locations
Mark the ground every 72in to determine exact pipe locations, measuring center-to-center.
Step 4: Remove Top Donut
Parts Required
A x1
Before driving your pipes, remove the top donut from pipe anchor (A) by pulling the tabs to unlock and lifting the top donut free. Need help? Watch our leveling donut video.
Step 5: Install Pipes
Parts Required
A x1
Drive pipe anchor (A) into the ground at your first marked location, checking for level roughly every 6in. To stay level, pound equally from all four sides. Continue until the lower gear touches the ground. Repeat for the second pipe — center-to-center spacing must be 72in.
Step 6: Adjust Donuts to Level
With both pipes in the ground, reinstall the top donut onto each pipe anchor (A) one at a time. Check each pipe for level. If a pipe is slightly off, pull the donut tabs outward and rotate the donut to shift its position and compensate. Refer to the donut leveling video in Step 4 for help.
Step 7: Install Posts
Parts Required
B x1
Slide post (B) down over pipe anchor (A). On flat ground, bury the post 3–4in to avoid a floating look.
Installing at a non-standard angle? Watch our angle bracket guide before placing your brackets.
Step 8: Install Bottom Bracket (First Post)
Parts Required
C x1 H x4
Measure, mark and secure bracket (C) to your first post (B), placing it 2in from the bottom of the post and 1⅛in from the front edge. Fasten with (4) 1in screws (H).
Step 9: Align Bottom Bracket (Second Post)
Parts Required
E x1 C x1
Cap one end of rail (E) with a loose bracket (C). Rest the other end in your installed bracket, level the rail, and mark the position of the loose bracket on your second post. Remove the rail — this mark is where you'll secure your second bracket.
Step 10: Install Bottom Bracket (Second Post)
Parts Required
H x4
Using your marked location, secure bracket (C) to the post with (4) 1in screws (H).
Step 11: Install Bottom Rail
Parts Required
J x4 E x1
Slide bottom rail (E) into both brackets and secure with (4) ¾in screws (J).
Step 12: Install Middle Brackets
Parts Required
D x2 H x4
Measure and mark the position of middle bracket (D) on each post, 42in up from the bottom rail. Secure each bracket with (2) 1in screws (H).
Important Note Regarding Pool Code:
We recommend installing the middle rail at least 48in above the ground to conform with most pool codes — but check your local regulations before installing, as requirements vary by area.
Step 13: Install Middle Rail
Parts Required
F x1 J x4
Slide middle rail (F) into the brackets and secure with (4) ¾in screws (J). Keep your panels square by applying inward pressure to the posts as you fasten.
Step 14: Install Top Brackets
Parts Required
C x2 H x8
Measure and mark your top bracket position at 52½in from the top of the bottom rail to the bottom of the top rail. Secure each bracket (C) through the pre-drilled holes with (4) 1in screws (H).
Step 15: Install Pickets
Parts Required
G x14
Slide all (14) pickets (G) into the rails, pushing each one fully down and flush to the bottom.
Step 16: Install Top Rail
Parts Required
E x1 J x4
Insert one end of top rail (E) into its bracket, align the pickets, then lower the other end into the second bracket. Secure through the pre-drilled holes with (4) ¾in screws (J).
Step 17: Install Post Caps
Parts Required
I x1
If needed, trim the post tops to height. Pressure fit post caps (I).
