What Is A Colorbond Fence?

A Colorbond fence is a high-quality steel fence made from Colorbond steel. The material is highly durable and weather-resistant, making it popular among property owners. It offers the same properties as aluminium, such as resistance to corrosion and lightweight, but it is stronger than the normal aluminium fence.

How To Install Colorbond Fence?

Plan And Measure

Firstly, plan the layout of your fence and measure the area where the fence will go. Use stakes and string lines to mark the positions for the posts. Ensure the layout is straight and stays within your property boundaries.

Dig The Post Holes

Next, dig holes at the marked positions using a post-hole digger. Make the holes deep enough to hold the posts securely. Typically, this means the hole should be about one-third of the post’s length.

Install The Posts

Place each post in its hole. Use a spirit level to make sure it is upright. Fill the hole with concrete mix and allow it to set. This usually takes 24 to 48 hours. Ensure the posts are evenly spaced to fit the panels.

Attach The Rails

Once the posts are secure, attach the top and bottom rails between each pair of posts. Secure them with screws, ensuring they are level and properly aligned.

Install The Panels

Slide the Colorbond panels into the rails. Start at one end and work your way to the other. Make sure each panel fits snugly. Secure the panels with screws or clips provided in the kit.

Finish Touches

Finally, inspect the fence for any gaps or misalignments. Tighten any loose screws and make sure the entire structure is sturdy and straight.

Tips To Maintain A Newly Installed Fence

  • Regular cleaning using a mild detergent with water and scrubbing gently with a cloth or soft brush can keep your fence new even after years.
  • Periodic inspection helps you find any issues on the fence. Check the fence panels, caps, and posts every six months. Look for signs of damage that might need attention.
