How do I attach corrugated metal to a chain link fence?
Attaching corrugated metal to a chain link fence is a relatively simple process that can be completed in a few hours. Here are the steps:
- Gather your materials. You will need corrugated metal panels, chain link fence, wire cutters, zip ties, and a drill.
- Cut the corrugated metal panels to size. The panels should be cut to the same length as the fence.
- Attach the panels to the fence. Use wire cutters to cut the chain link fence and then zip tie the corrugated metal panels to the fence.
- Drill holes in the panels. This will allow you to attach the panels to the fence posts.
- Screw the panels to the fence posts. Use a drill to screw the panels into the fence posts.
Tips:
- Use a level to make sure the panels are straight.
- Overlap the panels by at least 1 inch to prevent water from getting behind them.
- Seal the edges of the panels with caulk to prevent rust.
