G. Tension wire: Install tension wires so that it will be located 4” up from bottom the

fabric. If top rail is not specified, install the tension wire so that it will be located 4” down from the top of the fabric. Stretch and install tension wire before installing the chain link fabric and attach it to each post using wire ties.

H. Top rail: Connect ends with sleeves forming a rigid connection, allow for

expansion and contraction.

I. Center Rails: Install mid rails between line posts and attach to post using rail end or line rail clamps.


J. Bottom Rails: Install bottom rails between posts and attach to post using rail end or line rail clamps.
