Each summer cottage should be fencing. High-quality fence is, first of all, the safety that every day is becoming more relevant. Also do not forget about private life. The high fence will hide everything, which should not be felt a stranger.

Of the above words, it becomes clear that the fence is an indispensable component of the site, which should be approached by extremely responsible. Obviously, today there are many options for fences. Some fences make it possible to create a kind of fortress from the country area, others - only formally fence the territory from unwanted guests. In any case, the selection of this or that type of fence depends on the specific conditions and existing requirements. For example, if the country area is a rather large territory with a solid house, then without a high stone fence can not do.
In this material, we will look at the main features of the fence from the metal stakenik. In addition, we analyze in detail all the details related to the installation of this fence. It should be noted in advance that this is the most practical and effective option for the fence of your country area. And this is not just empty words.
Features of the fence made of metal stakenik
The fence made of metal stakenik is one of the most popular options for fences today. Not only does this fence look great, it is also distinguished by high durability. It should be noted that in the current conditions this option is not suitable for all, since the fence made of metal stakenik has a small height and lumens, allowing to observe the situation on the site to be passed.
Accordingly, it is just a practical option for those who want to create a beautiful and harmonious fence. A similar fence is a better solution for a plot with a relatively small home.
First you need to say that the metal stakenik is an excellent replacement of wood bars, which were very often used in the construction of fences. Accordingly, this option does not only look more attractive, but also significantly longer than wooden fence. It is these positive parties to a metal fence and attracts the owners of country sites.
Next, consider the positive and weaknesses of the fence from the metal stakenik. Benefits are as follows:
- A large number of color options. Of course, often the stakenatnik does not need to be painted, as it usually occurs after installing a wooden fence. There is a large number of colors of the metal stakenik, on which you need to base your choice. At the same time, you can combine colors on the stakeholder to create a rather original design of the fence. You can be sure that for many years on metal there will be a practically invulnerable enamel layer. However, if necessary, it is possible to paint the fence, and for this you will need less enamel than when painting a wooden fence.
- Strength. Obviously, the metal base of the fence is always safer than wood. However, the biggest advantage of the metal stakenist is that throughout the entire period of operation, it will remain all as durable as on the day of purchase. Yes, and break such a fence will be difficult. Almost all these parameters, a wooden fence loses a metal stakenist. If necessary, one or another element of the fence can be replaced, while on sale it will be possible to find a stakenik needed form and color. Many manufacturers ensure that the stakenik does not lose its primary properties and the original appearance for 10-15 years. Sometimes such guarantees are official, so you can be confident as such products.
- Low price. Obviously, wood to create a fence is an inexpensive option, however, the metal stakenik is not distinguished by a high price tag. You can build a fence around the perimeter of the country area and not to suffer serious financial costs. Metal stakenik is also a good option in cases where temporary fence is required. It will look like a permanent, but its cost is quite low. Also a low price allows you to replace the elements of the fence without any problems. Of course, if necessary.
- Stakenice dimensions. There is a huge selection of metal stakenik sizes. This allows you to build not only low fences, but also the fencing of almost any forms and structures. It all depends on the conditions in which a metal product is required. At the same time, you can choose the width of the profile, as well as its thickness. With a similar situation, the fence made of metal stakenik easily replaces the stone and brick for the construction of large fences.
However, do not forget about the lack of metal stakenik. Most metal products are subject to corrosion. Of course, this is a very serious problem, because of which the stakenik can come into disrepair. In such a situation, you need to constantly monitor that there are no flaws on the material. If the scratch appears on the stakenik - rust is very difficult to avoid. Accordingly, when any problem seats appear, it is necessary to arm a tassel and apply paint to the surface of the stake. At the same time it is necessary to remove the entire rust, which spreads the effect of corrosion.
In such situations, it is better to make a choice in favor of a stakenist, which already has a layer of paint. Accordingly, on such a product, the emergence of corrosion action is unlikely. At the same time, it is still necessary to carefully refer to the state of the metal surface.
If the fence does not have a protective coating, the metal surface will have to cover the paint after each winter. Only so you can be sure that the stakenik will last long.
Metal Stakenice Fence Design
The design of the fence in question consists of a carrier and enclosing. It is the last component - a metal stakenik. As a carrier base of the fence, there are often pillars.
As for the features of the basis of the fence, then most often the pillars are concrete structures, which can easily withstand all temperature drops, as well as precipitation and other external influences. In this case, a brick can be an excellent replacement for concrete pillars. Of course, the process of creating a brick basis for a fence can take away a lot of time, however, ultimately we get a durable support for fence. The wooden foundations, of course, are better not to use, as they do not differ high durability and durability.
Metal supports are also involved. It is easiest to install them, and the installation of the enclosing part of the fence is easy to produce. Again, the most serious problem is that the metal is corrosive. Therefore, the metal support will have to regularly paint as the stakenik. For many it may be a serious problem.
The ideal option for the base of the fence is the most severe material that will be a kind of monolith for all the fence. Accordingly, it is best to make a choice in favor of brick or concrete.
As for the very stakeholder, it can have a completely original appearance. Here we have a huge selection of forms and bends of the material. For example, you can find a stakenik who will have sharp endings. Such solutions will not allow attackers to get to the territory of the country area. Of course, all this is conditional and not so flawless, as it may seem, but in some cases such obstacles may be useful. There is also a metal profile with rounded ends. Such a solution may be perfectly combined with the erected house. Thus, the fence will perform not only its direct function, but also create a shared landscape style with the house.
If we have an ordinary and unpretentious brick house, you should pay attention to the classic stakenik, which has the most ordinary form. Accordingly, such a solution is perfectly combined with almost any buildings and locations, and if necessary, you can choose the optimal coloring of the product.
Tools and materials
First you need to purchase the required volume of the stakeholder. Obviously, for this, it should be calculated by the desired amount of material so that it does not turn out that we have spent extra money on an unnecessary construction resource. We also need pipes (supports) or other materials to create the founding of our fence. Paint, which may be useful for the metal coating, can be purchased a little later.
The crossbars will also be required, on which the stakenik will be attached. In this case, you should look at metal plars that need to be installed on top and bottom. The planks themselves must be attached to the supports.
If we make a choice in favor of a classic stake, then its width is often 100 mm. Accordingly, if we need a "transparent" fence, then about 5 staketin will need 1 m fence lengths. From this and it is necessary to repel when buying the desired volume of the metal product.
In addition, you need to have standard fasteners, including self-tapping screws, bolts, nuts and washers.
Also do not forget about earthworks. To do this, we need to have a drill and a shovel.
The process of building a fence from a metal stakenik
Before starting the main work, it is necessary to browse and clean the platform on which the fence will be created. Accordingly, it is necessary to remove all the grass and trash. With the help of the shovel, it is necessary to align the perimeter so that the soil has become a problem for creating a fence.
- First you need to break holes to install the main supports of the fence. Accordingly, the diameter of the pit should be approximately equal to the base diameter. The depth of the pit should not exceed 50 cm. Also in order for the support to keep tightly, it will be necessary to pour the pit with concrete. At the same time, you need to use the construction level to trace the support verticality of the support. If there are some deviations, it is fraught with serious problems, right up to the slaughter of the fence during operation. Accordingly, the support is immersed in a hole, fall asleep with a small amount of sand, and only then poured all this concrete. It should be borne in mind that while the concrete does not grab, the support must be fixed. A similar event is carried out throughout the perimeter of the site.
- Next, you need to mark the places of the stakeholder fasteners using the marker. To not be mistaken, you should use a tape measure. It should always be attentive, as it is easy to be mistaken. It is most important to do everything possible so that the distance between the stakenists was the same. Then the fence is guaranteed to become attractive.
- Now the stakeholders are screwed to horizontal crossbars with screws with a screwdriver. It should be done all this carefully so as not to damage the enamel layer on the material (if present). A similar procedure is done throughout the perimeter of the site.
- Also do not forget that the site should be gate. Of course, it is best to make a pass in the appropriate style. For this, just need curtains, as well as handle and castle. In this process there is nothing complicated, you should only securely secure all the above components to the metal structure.
After the above process ended, it should be proceeded to the next stage. With a high probability, we will need to cover the paint metal elements of the fence. Obviously, it is not about the stakeholder, but about the crossbars and supports. If these elements have galvanized, then nothing to do nothing. But if the metal painting is still necessary, you need to carefully carry out the process in order not to leave any spaces. Otherwise, it is precisely in these places to form a rust that will put the strength of all the fence.
