Easy Do-It-Yourself Installation
FLEXfence lets you create unique louver designs and patterns without the problems associated with spacing and fitting boards.
- Place FLEXfence rails onto the top and bottom crossbars for vertical operation, or onto the fence posts for horizontal operation.
- Fasten the brackets onto the pre-punched holes on the rails, allowing the brackets to swivel freely.
- Cut 1″ x 6″ lumber boards to the length of the opening (distance between the brackets on the opposite rails) and fasten into the brackets.
- Fasten the operating bar onto the bracket and now you can freely move your fence boards to open or close. For a permanent unique design, remove the operating bar, rotate the boards as desired and secure into position.
