Retaining wall installation

Step 1: Marking Out Your Wall

Start by placing a peg at either end of where your retaining wall will begin and end.

Run a string line between the pegs to establish a straight guide.

Under the string line, mark out your post holes along the wall line.

Measure your sleeper length and mark each hole position, from the center of each post.

This makes it easier to slide your sleepers in later on. Don’t hesitate to cut the rails if they’re too long — they must be exactly 2.4 mtrs long

Step 2: Drilling Holes

Drill your post holes to a depth that matches the height of the wall above ground.

Example: A 600mm high wall = 600mm deep hole.

What goes above the ground, also goes into the ground.

Step 3: Installing Posts

Start by positioning the first and last posts, then run a tight string line between them as a guide. Insert intermediate posts using a 2415mm spacer for even gaps, ensuring each is plumb and aligned. While the concrete is wet, tilt posts 40mm toward the cut end to account for future ground movement. This ensures proper alignment and long-term stability for the sleeper wall.

Step 4: Let the Concrete Set

Allow the posts to sit and cure in the concrete for 24 hours before continuing.

Step 5: Inserting the Sleepers

Some digging and leveling of the ground may be required to ensure the first layer of sleepers is perfectly even and aligned. This will help create a uniform and balanced appearance once all the sleepers are in place.

Step 6: Drainage and Backfill

Lay geofabric behind the wall to stop soil from clogging your drainage system.

Add 100mm of drainage gravel at the base of the wall.

Lay an aggie pipe (with sock) on top of the gravel to direct water away.

Fill the entire area behind the wall with drainage gravel only.

Do not backfill with soil.

Wrap-Up

And you’re done! A perfectly installed retaining wall, built to last. Now all that’s left to do is sit back and enjoy the view — great job!

Fence installation

Step 1: Marking Out Your Fence Line

Start by placing a peg at each end of your fence line.
Run a string line tightly between the pegs to establish a straight guide.
Mark your post holes under the string line at 2.4 meter. Exactly “If rail cutting is necessary, this is standard practice, as some holes may not always align correctly.” This slight gap ensures you can easily slide the rails into the posts during assembly.

Step 2: Drilling Post Holes

Drill your post holes to a depth of 550mm to 600mm, depending on ground conditions.

Step 3: Installing Fence Posts

Begin by installing the first and last posts. Then, run a string line between them as a guide for alignment for each post. When placing the remaining posts, use a 2400mm spacer bar to maintain consistent spacing between the posts. Ensure each post is perfectly level—checking both directions

Step 4: Let the Concrete Set

Allow the concrete to cure for at least 24 hours before continuing with the rest of the installation.

Step 5: Inserting your Rails, Fence Sheets & Riveting Once your posts are set:

Insert your bottom rail at 1800mm from the top of each post. Ensure that this height is consistent along the entire fence line.

If you have a sloping area, you may need to step your panels to maintain a uniform look across the fence.

Insert the top rail and fence sheets between the rails.

For a clean, professional look, rivet each sheet to the next.

Mark:

400mm down from the top rail

400mm up from the bottom rail drill a small hole to allow for the rivet

Then rivet at these points to ensure straight rivet lines across your entire fence.

Wrap-Up

That’s it! You’ve now installed a strong, great-looking composite fence. Step back and enjoy the results—awesome work!
