3 HOW VINYL FENCE IS MANUFACTURED PROFILES: Vinyl fencing originates as a PVC powder-form resin. When blended with the required additives, the formulation is fed into an extruder where it is formed into a malleable vinyl. The vinyl is then fed through a die into the shape of the finished profile. While using vacuum technology to retain the malleable vinyl s proper shape, water is introduced to cool the vinyl to its desired and final rigid state. PERFORMANCE: Vinyl fences are engineered to retain their beauty and good looks throughout their lifetime. We do not recommend painting your vinyl fence. Painting or otherwise treating the vinyl products will void the limited lifetime warranty. Vinyl will not mildew. Mildew feeds off organic materials. PVC in non-organic and therefore does not support mildew. The high-gloss, smooth, non-porous surface, makes it difficult for organic material to attach (e.g., dirt) and therefore does not promote the growth of mildew. The use of non-chalking TiO2 (titanium dioxide) further prevents most mildew. Vinyl is formulated to be non-toxic to the environment. It will not

4 WE RECOMMEND YOU HAVE A PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER TAKE CARE OF YOUR FENCE. WILL GIVE YOU THE NAMES OF SOME OF THE BEST INSTALLERS IN TOWN. DO IT YOURSELF, THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED Power auger or post hole digger Shovel, and digging bar (optional) Bright colored spray paint String line stakes and level Cordless or power drill with drill and screw bits Tape measure, safety glasses and work gloves Miter saw or circular saw to cut rails (if applicable) Table saw or circular saw to cut pickets HELPFUL HINTS Set all corner, end, and gate posts first for proper alignment. This also allows you to get the height on all posts accurate by running a string line from beginning post top to ending post top.

5 FOLLOW THESE IMPORTANT STEPS Locate property lines. You can find these by locating a pin placed in the curb in the front of your house or by a stake buried in the ground or by the post placed in the back. If you can t find any of these then try and locate a plot map from your city. Otherwise you will have to hire a surveyor to locate your property lines. Check your local city regarding fence locations in the front of the house. Some cities may restrict you at 3 or 4 height limit. Also check for overall fence heights in your city. A permit may be required for fences that exceed 6 in height. If you live in and HOA make sure to have your fence color and height approved before installing. This will save you money and possible delays. CONTACT BLUE STAKES FOR LOCATION OF PRIVACY PANEL - 2 RAILS 2 POSTS 2 CAPS 2 U-CHANNEL 6 TONGUE & GROOVE SLATS 2 3/4 SCREWS FOR UCHANNEL

6 PREPARE FENCE LAYOUT Please read these instruction sheets completely before beginning work. Laying out the fence is an important first step toward a quality installation. STEP 1: LOCATE YOUR PROPERTY LINES EXAMPLE: STEP 2: DRIVE STAKES INTO THE GROUND JUST BEYOND WHERE THE POSTS ARE BEING PLACED AND OFF CENTER OF THE PROPERTY LINE. STRETCH A STRING FROM STAKE TO STAKE. STEP 3: MARK THE LOCATION OF EACH POST HOLE. LOCA- TIONS SHOULD BE 73 ON CENTER FOR 6 SECTIONS TIP: USE SPRAY PAINT TO MARK HOLE LOCATIONS.

7 SETTING THE POSTS STEP 1: Dig holes approximately 8-10 in diameter and 24 deep. STEP 2: Place the post in the center of the hole and square it up with the fence line. Check the post on two adjacent sides with a level or use a post level to check for plumb. You will adjust for the height of the fence at this time. It is recommended that you set the post 2 from the bottom of the bottom rail to the ground. STEP 3: Pour concrete around posts and fill up to 24 below ground level. If using mixed concrete make sure it is only slightly wet. This will allow for a faster set-up and less chance of leaning due to the wind. If using dry concrete, dump 1/3 of the bag in the hole and mix with some water. Repeat this step until filled. Follow these steps until all posts are set and are ready for panel installation. Relevel posts if necessary before concrete is set.

8 PANEL ASSEMBLY - BOTTOM RAIL STEP 1: Slide bottom rail into the post and secure bottom rail with a screw. If you have to cut your rail, make sure that your rail is 3 longer than your post to post measurement. This will allow for proper inset. PANEL ASSEMBLY - TOP RAIL STEP 2: Follow the previous instructions. Secure the rail then move onto next step. PANEL ASSEMBLY - PANELS STEP 3: Starting at the end, insert the panels into the top and bottom rails and move down the rail. PANEL ASSEMBLY U-CHANNEL STEP 4: (If applicable) Put U-channel on the posts between the holes for the top and bottom rail. You can use a grabber screw about 3/4 to 1 length to secure the U- channel. NOTE: ALTHOUGH OPTIONAL, U-CHANNEL IS RECOMMENDED FOR TAN OR ADOBE COLORED VINYL AND IN SOME CASES IT S REQUIRED FOR FULL **IF YOUR RAILS DON T COME PRE-NOTCHED, YOU CAN RENT A NOTCHER OR SECURE WITH SCREWS TO ATTACH THE RAIL.

9 POST CAPS Apply a small amount of PVC glue to the inner rim of the cap and place onto post. Make sure the cap is firmly in place. TIP: PLACE ONLY ONE OR TWO DOTS OF GLUE. THIS IS SUFFICIENT FOR HOLDING THE CAP CLEANING During installation your fence will collect some vinyl residue and dirt due to static electricity and basic installation procedures. In most cases you can spray this off with a hose. However, for more stubborn marks you can use some simple green cleaner with non-abrasive scotch brite pad. This is also the best thing to use to clean and SECURING RAILS WITH SCREWS STEP 1: To secure bottom rail, screw a screw into the wall of the rail at an angle towards the inside of the post. This will securely hold the rail in place and will make removal easier if necessary. STEP 2: To secure the top rail, screw a screw into the top rail next to the post at an angle. This will securely hold the rail in place and will make removal easier if necessary. (secure screws should be hidden inside rail
