1. Space your fence posts no more than 8 feet apart. Dig post holes every 6 to 8 feet along your property line. Make sure the holes are deep enough—typically about 24 inches for a sturdy base. Once the holes are dug, pour concrete into each one and carefully insert the fence posts. Use a level to ensure they are straight and even before the concrete sets.
2. Cut two 2x4s to match the height of your wire mesh. These will serve as stretchers that help keep the mesh taut and properly aligned.
3. Drill round-head bolts every 8 inches along the length of the stretchers. Be careful not to fully tighten the bolts at this stage—this allows for adjustments later when you're stretching the wire mesh.
4. Wrap the end links of the wire mesh around the bolts on the stretchers. Then, screw the bolts in tightly to secure the mesh in place. Make sure you wrap enough mesh around the boards so it’s held firmly and doesn’t slip or sag.
5. Attach one of the wire stretchers to a fence post using at least 4-inch carpentry screws. Secure it at the bottom, top, and center to provide maximum stability. When done correctly, pulling the wire mesh should cause it to run perpendicular to both the stretcher and the post, ensuring even tension.
6. Tie a hand-cranked chain pulley to the next fence post. Attach the chain hook to the center of the unsecured wire stretcher. Slowly crank the pulley to pull the stretcher toward the post. Take your time—this allows the wire to stretch gradually without snapping or breaking.
7. Once the wire is tight, lock the pulley’s crank teeth in place to hold the tension. Then, screw down the second wire stretcher onto the post. Finally, unlock and remove the hand crank. Your fence should now be securely stretched and ready for the next section.
