Hello,

I am going to be installing a vinyl fence this weekend. I'm looking for
some tips. What is the best way to make sure the posts are all at the same
height?


Tape measure - Remember, measure once cut twice. Or ah, something like that.

Also is there a trick to making sure the posts are perfectly lined
up?


String

I'm concerned the fence will end up being twisted and facing different
directions. I'm up in central New York. How deep should the holes be?


Four feet probably

How
much gravel and concrete will I need per post?


More than you think - You can do it w/o concrete. Ever see a telephone
pole set into concrete?

Lastly there will be a gate
connected to a brick wall. Any thoughts on how best to latch it to the
wall?


Tapcon screws - they are blue though. masonry anchors otherwise.


Any thoughts on these questions and anything else will be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks...


Want more info? Just ask.
