For many years, the hosts of private territories are in search of the most optimal materials for creating high-quality fence. It is worth noting the fact that someone chooses classic woody materials, and someone looks towards metal products. It can be said for sure that it is extremely difficult to determine the best or worst choice, since everything should be based on a particular site, as well as on the features of the territory, district, etc. Already after such a global analysis it will be possible to make a conscious choice, which would concern each aspect associated with the site.

If we talk about a metal stakenice, then this is the best material for most conditions. First of all, we are talking about small territories, in which the stakenik will not only look harmoniously, but also to comply with the level of safety and some other aspects.
Within the framework of large areas where multi-storey structures can be found and the like objects, the fences made of metal stakenik are not as often. The whole problem is that a small fence made of thin metal segments will not be a reliable protection, if, for example, an attacker attaches will occur. Within the framework of such sites, you can meet high stone fences through which not only difficult to climb, but also it is practically no possible to fill with the help of specialized equipment. Ultimately, something like a fortress, which is extremely important aspect for the owners.
In this article, we will consider in detail the process associated with installing a fence from a metal stakenik. We also analyze the features of this fence, which will allow the owners to make a conscious choice.
Features of the fence made of metal stakenik
As we have said, the situation associated with the fences is quite interesting. Almost all owners, first of all, living in the CIS, are trying to realize a fence that would be a protective design. Thus, you can detect large fences even in small areas.
Those owners who have no concerns related to the life and security of the territory produce the installation of small fences that have a greater degree of decorative component and minimum fence characteristics. Accordingly, such a fence will not allow to enter the territory of third-party people, and this is quite enough. With this situation, you can implement a variety of design projects related to the fences, and the possibility of making a choice between the huge list of materials for the fence.
There is also a choice between the materials that will be able to look through the territory, and those that have a solid surface without a single lumen. It is also a matter of choice, since the territories can be different, and the owners can think differently.
As for the directly metal stakenik, it is worth noting that the metal is an excellent material to create a fence. This resource is highly durable, as well as necessary wear resistance. Many owners still make a choice in favor of wooden fences, and with such a slad tree, find under races and other external influences, after a while losing their initial appearance and the necessary properties. Metal, if it is set to a certain processing, will serve as faithfully for many years, while not losing its basic properties and an attractive appearance of the surface. Metal stakenik has high-quality paint spraying, which allows the material to remain in good condition even after 2-3 decad. Manufacturers often provide a guarantee, arguing that after 10 years, the material will look exactly the same as now.
State of metallic stakenika
The essence of the question is that the metal is often subjected to various damage. Often these are random factors, for example, man threw a stone and accidentally hit the stakeholder. Ultimately it turns out that the anti-corrosion layer of paint is a bit damaged, and it can create a lot of problems. Gradually, under the influence of precipitation, the rust is formed in this place, which in a short period of time will affect the considerable area of \u200b\u200bthe metal. Unfortunately, corrosion extends extremely quickly, so any slowdown can create serious problems.
With any damage to the metal stakenik, it is necessary to do everything possible immediately so that the specific area on the surface of the material is complete safety. To do this, you can use the paint again, or take advantage of special anti-corrosion compositions.
Sometimes it happens that the one or another unit of material was damaged too much, and in this case the most correct solution will simply replace a specific stakenik. Good news is that often to purchase this material can afford many people. It is relatively cheap, but much depends on the manufacturers, since some of those or other companies try to overestimate the price. The cost of producing such products is quite low.
Of course, you can always set the stake in painting. And for this you can use a brush, and roller, and a spray gun. Obviously, there will be no special problems, since the most basic layer of protection was applied directly at the factory, which made this resource.
Product specifications
Often, it is possible to find a stakenatnik, the height of which is about 170-180 cm. Of course, it is always possible to obtain the original dimensions of this resource, so the owners of the plots wishing to realize something original do not have to change their plans and think about some new Script creation scenarios.
In addition, the positive side of this material is a variety of color solutions. You can find a stakenik of one or another color, which would best approach the site or a specific project. It is worth noting that such a variety has a positive effect on the popularity of this material. Despite its common simplicity, each unit of the stakenik can be selected in modern design.
Advantages and disadvantages of the fence made of metallic stakenik
We have already mentioned some details related to the positive and negative parties of the metal stakenist. It is necessary to more deeply consider this question to make the most correct choice, and at the same time not to become a victim of not the most positive properties of the material.
The advantages of the fence from the metal stakenik:
- Low price. Obviously, almost all the owners who have made a choice in favor of this material, they wish to save as much money as possible. In fact, the savings turn out to be very impressive, as it often has to acquire large volumes of material to build a fence around the site. Do not think that when creating such a fence, it does not need to spend any money, however, savings will be felt compared to other resources.
- Strength and durability. We have already stayed in detail on this issue. Separately, I would like to say that for most owners it is the durability of the material that plays an important role, and in the second plan there is already an appearance. It is also interesting that often the stakenik is treatable by polymer compositions, which makes it invulnerable to most external influences.
- Variety of material. As already mentioned, the stakenik can have different color performances, which makes the material quite attractive. Do not forget that the resource may also have an original form that is also able to make a fence quite unusual.
- Easy installation. If you speak directly about creating a fence from a metal stakenik, then it is worth it in mind that a person can carry out this process without experience in construction and repair. In this case, it is important to pay attention to various parts of the process, as well as to accurately follow the technology so that no problems do not occur. Of course, it is desirable to attract to the installation of the fence at least a couple of people so that the process passed as quickly as possible.
Disadvantages of the fence made of metal stakenik:
- Corrosion action. We mentioned that in case of the appearance of some mechanical damage, the material becomes a victim of corrosion. The situation is really sharp, and it refers to all metal components that are used in construction or repair. As we have already spoken, it is desirable to closely monitor the state of the material, and if necessary, immediately respond to damage.
- Appearance. Despite the fact that the material is popular for many people, it certainly is not the most modern and attractive. Metal stakenik is a fairly simple material that simply performs its main tasks. Some people believe that the Stakenik looks modern, and the share of truth in these words is definitely present. Therefore, each person has its own view of this situation, but the most important thing needs to be remembered - the material is indeed a good solution for creating a fence, and the factors associated with the appearance of the stakenice are a secondary question.
Features of the fence design
First of all, it is worth paying attention to the fact that the fence almost always consists of a carrier part, as well as enclosing. As for the first, this part is pillars that are the basis and durable component. In the case of a fence from a metal stakenice, pillars may be stone, concrete or metal. Direct metal pipes are in demand in construction, their diameter is often about 60 mm and higher. It is most important to remember that the carriers must be sufficiently massive, durable and reliably covered. Then there is confidence that with strong wind or any other situations the fence will not fall, and will delight with its resistance. Experts note that the most important thing is a major weight of the supports, and the rest is already secondary questions.
The most distance that is available between the supports must be filled with enclosing elements. In our case, this is a metal stakenik, which is attached to the profiled tube, the dimensions of which are 20x40 mm. In some situations, larger elements are also required, however, for a small size of the fence in the fence of safety should be enough. It is worth noting that the distance between the columns must be fixed so that a certain number of stakenice units in the best way fit into the fence.
The process of installing a fence from a stakeholder
First you need to keep in mind that the installation of the fence, despite its simplicity, has some features. First of all, we are talking about technology that should be followed during the entire process. Any violations made even in such a simple project may negatively affect the future.
Preparatory activities
- Preparation is the most important stage, since here we will need to mark the territory, so that in the process of creating the foundation there were no unforeseen problems. It is necessary to take the rope and pegs. The rope, stretched around the perimeter of the site, will become a circuit to install the fence. It is worth saying that at this stage there may be a lot of surprises. We are talking about some interference, which may be present on the site. It may be wood, communications or some other objects. At the same stage, it is necessary to do everything possible so that such difficulties make too serious problems. It is necessary to analyze the situation and find a way out of the problem.
- Immediately after marking, it will become clear how many materials are necessary for all work. It is necessary to make accurate calculations, it should be remembered that some material supply will not be superfluous, especially in situations where the trading point is too far from the site.
- Immediately after we understood how much material is necessary for carrying out the installation of the fence, it is worth studying the range of metal products and then choose the most worthy options. It should be borne in mind that there will be preliminary figures on this basis, which relate to the total work. In some cases, it is possible to save, for example, to purchase a staketer from raw galvanized steel, but immediately after installation, or before that, it will be necessary to process the material that will cost not so cheap.
- It should also be borne in mind that in addition to supporting pipes and a stakenik, we need to purchase enough crossbar, which will be horizontally placed around the perimeter of the fence. They will become the basis for fastening the stakeholder. The distance between the columns should be from 2 to 4 m, and the crossbars can be up to 12 m long.
- The width of the stake is either 100 mm, or 120 mm. It is worth remembering that the number of stakes even for one perimeter of the site can be different, since the owners themselves install the material fastening interval. In some cases, when you need to create a so-called "transparent" fence, a very few stakenik is required.
- As for the acquisition of fasteners, it is necessary to stock by self-drawing, or special bolts with washers. The last option is more practical, since the mount does not destroy the polymer layer, which is extremely important in terms of preventing corrosion development.
- It is worth preparing all the tools necessary for work. Here will need a boring, shovel, screwdriver. Some situations will need welding equipment.
Also before installing the fence, it is worth cleaning a plot from garbage, as well as, if possible, align it.
Installing a fence
- It all starts with the installation of support pillars. To do this, you need in places where they will be located, sculpt the pits of 50 cm deep. It is worth noting that for reliable fastening the supports will be required to concrete the design. Thus, first a pillar is placed in a pit that is slightly falling asleep ground for stability, and the rest of the space is poured concrete. The concrete mix can be made personally using certain proportions. The most important task at this stage is to place a pillar as soon as possible, and also secure it.
- Next occurs marking for the attachment of the crossbar. On the perimeter of the fence there will be two crossbars - one from above, and the other below. With the help of self-samples, we mount these very crossbars to the support pipes. With the help of the marker, it is advisable to place pipes in advance so that there are no problems associated with the location of metal elements.
- Approximately the same situation and the fastening of the stakeholder. It should be marked by the attachment points on the crossbars, and then mount the stake in the right places. It is worth noting that this process is extremely long and boring, but there are simply no other options. At the very end, the stakeholder is attached to the crossbar with the help of a screwdriver.
