Vinyl Fence Installation Shop Drawing

A vinyl privacy fence closes in a backyard for kids, pets, and quiet evenings, and it holds up for years with almost no upkeep. ArcSite's vinyl fence installation shop drawing shows how one 8' section goes together, from the post in the ground to the cap on top.

Key Features

This vinyl fence installation shop drawing includes:

  • One 8' wide fence section in elevation
  • Posts shown set below grade
  • Lettered callouts A through H on the drawing
  • Matching fence components list beside the drawing
  • Galvanized pipe and post collars inside each post
  • Metal insert in the bottom rail

The galvanized pipe runs inside the vinyl post and down into the ground, a part no one sees once the fence is up, so this is the drawing to walk a new crew through before they set the first post.

Key Considerations When Installing a Vinyl Fence

Most vinyl fence trouble starts below the post cap, since a post without steel inside it can lean over time. This ArcSite shop drawing shows where the pipe goes in each post, so you can plan your hole depth and pipe length before you dig.

FAQ

Does this drawing show post hole depth?

No. It shows the posts set below grade with the galvanized pipe inside, but not a set hole depth. Add the depth your frost line and local code call for.

Can I change the section width?

Yes! You can adjust the section width in ArcSite and keep the lettered callouts on the drawing.

Is ArcSite hard to learn?

Not for most contractors. ArcSite is built for the field, not CAD drafters, so you draw with a finger or stylus instead of typing commands.
