First fence post as a bench marker

leza wang · 2014-07-15T16:38:30+00:00

One side of my house is overlook an Alleway (cars can drive). I want to bui ld a fence similar to this one (click on the link below please) My house is in similar situation of the picture above (instead of the green , my house is there). Of course the fence is going to be build on my property side. I want a prot ection fence like the one in the picture because I am afraid in the Winter cars might slip and hit my house. I started working and dig to install the Posts. There will be 6-8 post and the distance between them is 6' feet. My question, should I install the fir st post (put the gravel first and then concorete) and then wait to dry and then try to install pther post so I can use the first one as a bench mark w hen I try to make sure they all post are layed on the same level and the hi ght are the same. I thought it is good idea to do that. What do you think Thanks a lot.
