1. First of all, align the course of your double wire mesh fence with the help of a guide line.
2. Next, the post bases must either be dowelled or set in concrete. When dowelling, the posts are anchored in the ground with suitable dowels. To set the post bases in concrete, dig 30 x 30 cm holes with a depth of 80 cm.
3. Then insert the posts in the concrete bed so that they are plumb and flush.
4. Now the posts for your double wire mesh fence must dry in the concrete for at least 24 hours.
