## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great fence for the budget minded do it yourselfer!
*by D***. on July 16, 2019*

We needed a compliant pool fence and gate because we are fostering my great grand son and the house had to meet several requirements. After making several calls to local fence installers we were getting quotes upward of $3500. for the 40 feet of fence and gate we needed. While browsing Amazon I saw the Xcel fence components. I ordered what I needed for 40 feet which was 8 sections and a gate, all told $1000 and change plus free prime shipping! BTW ordering 8 or more sections gets you a good discount on the sections. The shipment was from a local source so it arrived in two days, all 9 boxes.I opened the box and found the gate components neatly packaged along with the instruction sheet. I soon realized that the measurements on the instruction sheet were incorrect but fortunately there as an addendum that had the correct measurements.You need to attach brackets to the posts, cut the post and attach a plate only if bolting the post to a concrete slab, otherwise it goes into a hole in the ground dug with a post hole digger. Once the post is in the hole you pour a 50 lb bag of post hole cement and add water on top as directed.Once the posts are in place and spaced according to the instructions you then add the rails. One on the bottom and two near the top or vice-versa depending on the style you selected from the instruction sheet.Once you have the rails in place you slide in the pickets, the pickets take no screws or bolts, they just clip into the grommets that are on the rails. You can install the pickets with each section you do or install them after all the sections are in place.Although I was apprehensive about the work that was required, I’m 63, I soon found the fence was easy to assemble even by myself. It is well designed and is a good quality fence. While it doesn’t substitute for a professional fence installation that is welded in place and made to fit the area perfectly it is a very good fence option for the budget minded do it yourselfer.Included are, screws, brackets, plastic caps, anchor bolts, concrete is not included however.As for tools, you will need a post hole digger, hammer drill if bolting to concrete, a level, tape measure, a metal cutting chop saw to cut the posts going on concrete and rails if a section ends up being shorter, the usual hand tools. I found the Bosch 12 volt LiOn drill and impact driver indispensable. Bosch Power Tools Combo Kit CLPK22-120A helper would be helpful as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sturdy, great quality post.
*by C***L on February 10, 2022*

This black post was very well made. We used it with our decorative fencing. It looks wonderful on the end as a finishing post. We had to cut one end as it was a little too long. It cut well. We put about 10 to 12 inches in the ground for good support. This also rust proof. Love the look and especially the quality. It is a heavy piece of fine metal.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ matches the other fencing perfect
*by M***K on December 15, 2020*
