- 1). Saturate the bottom third of your posts with wood preserver and let sit overnight.
- 2). Figure out where the fence should be located. Leave enough room between the pool and the fence for people to walk past one another. If you have pool furniture that you'd like nearby, ensure there is enough room for that as well. Mark off the area with stakes starting at the corners and then spacing them such that each fence section will fit between them.
- 3). Dig the fence post holes with the post hole digger deep enough that one-third of the post will be underground. Put two to three shovelfuls of gravel at the bottom of the hole. Insert the post and then pack with concrete or dirt. Use a level to ensure the post is straight and then brace the post to keep it in place. Pile a small mound of dirt around the base of the post to prevent puddling. Let these set for four to five days.
- 4). Attach each fence section using nails or screws and possibly brackets depending on how the section was made and the instructions supplied with them
