CompoXen field guides

Install with clarity.
Build with confidence.

Two focused video guides walk through the essential sequence for a clean CompoXen composite fence and gate installation.

Use these videos as a quick visual reference before and during installation. Always confirm the current product instructions, project drawings, local requirements, and site conditions before work begins.

Guide 01

Composite fence installation

From layout and post setting through rails, boards, and final alignment.

  1. 01

    Plan and mark

    Confirm the fence run, corners, gates, grade changes, utility markings, and post locations before digging.

  2. 02

    Set the posts

    Keep every post plumb, aligned, correctly spaced, and securely braced while the concrete cures.

  3. 03

    Build the panels

    Install the lower rail, composite boards, upper rail, trim, and caps in the sequence shown in the video.

  4. 04

    Complete the review

    Check alignment, board engagement, fasteners, clearances, and finish details before cleaning the site.

Guide 02

Composite gate installation

Prepare the opening, assemble the gate, mount the hardware, and fine-tune operation.

  1. 01

    Confirm the opening

    Verify the hinge and latch posts are plumb, the opening is square, and the planned swing path is clear.

  2. 02

    Assemble the gate

    Build the frame on a level surface, install the composite infill, and confirm the finished dimensions.

  3. 03

    Mount the hardware

    Attach hinges to the reinforced post, support the gate level, then install the latch and remaining hardware.

  4. 04

    Adjust and test

    Confirm smooth operation, consistent clearances, positive latching, and secure fasteners through the full swing.

Before digging

Plan for a safe installation.

Contact 811 before excavation, verify property boundaries, follow local codes, and use project-specific engineering when required.
