Division of accessories for fence panels

The main idea behind designers and manufacturers of modern panel fences is to enable you to quickly, precisely and cheaply assemble the fence.

What accessories to buy for a panel fence?

Prepare a list of basic accessories that you will need when building your fence. To connect prefabricated concrete slabs , you will use metal channel bars (fasteners), fixed to the posts using sheet metal screws (remember to choose fasteners in a color matching the other elements of your fence). Instead of channel bars, you can use ready-made concrete fasteners.

To connect the span with the profile, use panel clamps (varnished, galvanized), select them to the cross-section and position of the posts. In stores you will find rectangular, square or round clamps, adapted for installation on the starting, corner or middle poles. How many clamps should you buy? It depends on the height of the fence – in the case of a low fence (1.2 m) 2 pieces per post are enough, in higher panels use 3 fasteners each.

Brackets and fittings for panel fences

The list of useful mounting accessories for panel fences also includes fittings and brackets that stabilize metal spans. Universal galvanized handles make it easy to attach the fence directly to the walls and are also suitable for poles with non-standard dimensions. Do you want to get a non-standard span length (over 2.5 m)? You can do the joining quickly and accurately, using fittings, consisting of a bolt, washer and nut.

Another practical mounting accessory is the wrapper for fence panels, i.e. a small size L-shaped plate with a rounded angle and two holes for screws. Reach for it if you plan to embed the panel in a ready-made frame. Screw wrappers are designed for mounting wickets or gates and available in colors: graphite, green, black or galvanized version.
