XCEL - Black Steel Anti-Rust Fence Panel - Flat End Picket - 6.5ft W x 5ft H - Easy Installation Kit, Outdoor Residential Fencing for Yard, Garden, Concrete, 3-Rail Metal Fence, Include a Fence Post

Overall, this product met expectations. You could get pieces at some big box hardware stores as well, but they charge for the panel, for the posts, etc. I needed a quick fence up to meet HOA requirements in my neighborhood. As you can tell from the pictures, the fence was installed on a slope but it worked fine. On a slope the top rail didn't align exactly so cutting the top rail where I needed it worked great for me. Angle griders are cheap at harbor freight, and cut this pretty easily. I ended up installing eleven posts for 6 panels and 3 gates. I used an angle grinder to cut some of the panels to the width I needed them to be. I also installed a removable post in the center of two gates. My wife found a perfect piece of a square two inch metal pipe that we cemented in the ground, about 20 inches long. we put the post inside that, and can be removed if we need to get something wide through two gates, like a truck. Just know that this is not an easy DIY project. Digging post holes with rocks, mixing and pouring cement in the post holes, getting the posts to line up side to side, front to back, and even with each other, and at the right height requires some skill and it's back breaking work. Make sure when you put in the vertical fence slats that you have them in the right way. The clips lock forever so pay close attention to the instructions there. Our bid for fence installers was about $7000 US. Going to a local fence supplier was about $3500 in parts. This system was about $1300 in parts, but I spent probably 40 hours on the whole project, and another $200 in tools.

The product looks very nice once it’s installed. However, installing it was difficult. The instructions were vague and inaccurate. For one part, it called for a 6/19 socket. There is no such thing. It turned out to be 8mm. They should have just said so. It took 12 hours for two of us to install one panel and one gate.

Had to use my own parts to keep it together and had to drill my own holes etc. as assembled fence falls apart with winds an over 20 mph. With modifications it is better, but it shouldn’t have to be that way. Gate assembly is even worse

Directions were awful. Made it a lot harder to install. I wouldn’t buy this fence again.

Gorgeous fence. We've received many compliments!
