SAFETY FENCE
Suggested Installation Instructions:
1. Place T-posts no more than 10 feet apart. (Note: Metal U-post or rebar are not
recommended as supports for safety fences.)
2. Pull safety fence taut and secure to the posts with plastic fence ties (zip ties).
Loop the ties through the available holes or “teeth” in the post to prevent the
fence from sliding down the post. Place zip ties every 12 in vertically down fence
post.
3. For additional longevity pull the safety fence taut and secure between the flat
side of the T-post and the wood slat. Or weave the slat through the fence mesh,
and use it as a tension bar to pull the fence snug. Then secure the slat to the post.
Use plastic fence ties (zip ties) to secure the slat and fence to the T-post at the
top, middle and bottom of the fence. Loop the tie through the “tooth” at top and
bottom of the post to prevent the safety fence ssliding down the post.
4. For the greatest longevity of the safety fence, it can be suspended from a wire
(plastic, metal, rope, etc.). This is in addition to the securing method explained in
#3 above. This wire should be woven through the upper openings of the safety
fence and through the holes in the posts. The wire should then be secured at
both ends of the safety fence.
5. To connect fence sections, overlap two ends by at least 6 inches and weave a
wood slat through the overlapped strands. Secure the joined area to the T-post.
