Tenho que ir aí então! 😀
Brilliant work Sir.. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much! 👍😀
@@DMaker_builds ur most welcome Sir… even ur video is done so well. Really appreciate it.
Beautiful. Wonder if it would also look good with an even higher wall.
Thanks! Yes I think it will still be fine with a higher wall. 👍
es exactamente lo que buscaba man te amo mucho
Thank you! 👍 😉
. Muitos parabéns. Pelo projecto e pela forma como comunica.
Muito obrigado Gonçalo! 👍
Fantastic video and doing exactly what I am trying to do on my own brick wall. I am mounting on a solid wall so won't need the sleeves, but wondered how big a hole I should drill for 12mm threaded bars?
Thanks! I would drill a 14mm hole to make space for the chemical bushing. 👍
very nice work ! i would have loved it if the srews could somehow be on the inside or concealed for a more clean and flush look.
Thanks! 👍 Yes, that would be a possibility, but the owner decided like this, and I think it also looks ok to see the screws all aligned in the same position.
Great work man, looking great! Just wondering, if I were to install this extension on a wooden pine base and not a concrete one, would you still use the chemical anchors? or would you simply drill the other end of the bolt into the wooden base, or use other types of anchors & epoxy/adhesive on the base?
Hi, thanks a lot. In my opinion if the base is pine you should drill the other end of the directly into the wood. That’s the best option since the chemical anchoring is not so good on wood. 👍
Awesome! Gave me an idea. Im going to do the same to an existing concrete restraining wall that doesn’t look good. Im thinking of installing beams just as you did and then running a board vertically all the way down so I then can run the boards across horizontally covering the wall and creating a short fence above it about 2 feet. Im thinking I should also screw in some screws into the vertical bards going down for extra support. Just not sure if this will mess up the strength of the actual retaining wall??
Thanks for any insight or added input on this?
Hi, I think that's a good idea, and I'm pretty sure a few screws will not mess up the strength of the wall. Go ahead and good luck with
your project! 👍😀
Beautiful work!! This is exactly what I'm looking to do. Our contractor used the wrong wood for our fence. What type of wood did you use? And where did you purchase it?
Thanks! I’ve used pressure treated pine. It’s important to be pressure treated wood so that it can last longer outside. I bought it in Lisbon, Portugal, close to where I live. 😀
Hi, great video ! What is the distance between the vertical beams and why did you chose not to use metal cup holders for the vertical beams but instead mount them directly to the wall (won’t the touch surface between the wood and the wall rot ?) ? Thanks and keep up the great work !!!
Hi, Thanks! The distante between the vertical beams varies, in one part of the L is around 1,2m and in the other part is only 1m. The reason for not using metal cup holders is because the wall is not thick enough to hold its bases, and also because of the final look of the fence. I don’t the wood will rot because I applied silicon based insulation outside where the beam touches the wall.
nice job. maybe I will go with the some job, but I will do wood with angl . like 12mm - 25mm under both each list. better water droping . no ?
Thanks a lot! I'm not sure I understood your question correctly, but to be honest I don't think you'll need an angle in the boards to help with water. The water flows freely just like this. I hope I could help 👍😉
Thanks, I learnt some things from this, but why did you discard the ends of the beams?
Thanks a lot! I discarded the ends because the beam have been siting outside for a while and the ends were a little bit damaged.
Nice video. I'm considering doing the same around out patio. Do you think it would be worthwhile injecting some resin or glue into the fence post too, just to give it some extra strength?
Thanks! Honestly I don't think you need that. Just make sure the post is well fixed, and it should be ok! 👍😉
Wow!!! That's perfect. You did awesome work. Thanks for sharing. Question? The 4X4 post how many feet. you leave the distance on each other????
Thanks! That depends on the distance you have to cover. In my case, I had about 1,2m (around 4 feet) in one side of the "L" and 1,08m (around 3.5 feet) on the other side. 👍
@@DMaker_builds thanks so much 🙏
@@cesararias833 👍
Great job 👌 More difficult if you have to do it on an uneven stone wall, have you ever had to build a fence on a stone wall ? If so how did you find it ?
Thank you so much! No, I've never built a fence on a stone wall, but I think you can have the same approach if it's not too uneven. The only thing is that the gap between the wall and the first board will look a little uneven, but I think it should be OK! 👍😉
Hello! Looks fantastic.
Which "Colored outdoor wood protector" did you use exactly? Thanks!
Thank you so much! I've used a classic outdoor wood protector (the brand was Bondex), the color was oak, and the finishing was mate. I hope it helped. 👍😉
Hey thanks for the video, I want to do something similar but was wondering, what part of the process might change if I were to build the same fence but 6 feet tall from the top of the stone wall
That's a pretty high fence! I'm afraid these posts won't withstand strong winds. You should consider thicker posts, and some kind of reinforcement specially in the connection with the wall.
Question: What if the wall is hollow-ish cinder block with only stucco on top? Any suggestions? Our anchors don't seem really sturdy.
Hi, actually this wall is made of hollow blocks. It's a matter of injecting enough chemical anchoring to fill the gap. And very important, use the plastic sleeves! Good luck with your build 👍🙂
Hi why do you leave gaps in between the boards is this because of how the wood can expand with the tempature?
Hi, one of the reasons is due to wood expansion, but the gap is bigger than needed due to aesthetic aspects. The customer didn't want a very "closed" fence, so that more natural light comes in.
Beautiful work.
Thank you so much! 👍😉
Hi thanks for the video ho difficult to do this on sloping flat top stone wall?
Hi, it's a bit trickier, but you will have to cut an angle in the vertical posts so that they stay vertical on the sloped wall. Use a good drill bit that’s appropriate for stone, and then fix the horizontal boards the same way. I hope it helped! 👍
Yes thankyou
About how much of the bolt did you put in the post and how much did you leave to put in the rock wall ? And how tall were your post ?
Hi, about the same on each side, around 15cm! A little more if the post is higher.
Hi , are the plastic sleeves necessary? I'm am just asking as they are very hard to get in New Zealand.
Hi, it's not mandatory to use the sleeves. They help the chemical anchoring not spreading too much but you don't need to use it. Thanks
would this be possible with a 5 ft wooden fence above a 4" block wall? or would steel post holders bolted to wal top be better to hold he 5" Uprights or should i attach the wooden posts frther down wall maybe 5ft above the wall and 3ftbelow the top of wall for added support??
Hi, I think your last option might be the best, because in my opinion 5ft is a bit too high for this type of fixing. Good luck with your build 👍😉
Looks really great! What would I expect to pay for something like this?
Thanks! That depends on a lot of variables, like the location, the type of lumber, the transport, the length/height of the wall, etc. It’s hard to give you a number without knowing more about each project specs. I hope you understand 👍
Great work. What is the length in between from one vertical post to another and what is the total length of the horizontal wood that measures 10x2cm. I assume that you left 1.07cm gap between each wood, right?
Thanks! The distance between each vertical post is 1.2m in one of the sides and around 1m in the other side. The horizontal boards are in one case around 2.5m and in the other 1.2m. And yes, the gap between the boards is around 11mm. I hope it helped. 👍
Great job - is this wall core filled cinder block?
Thanks a lot! No, this wall is made of normal bricks and cement. 👍
Absolutely beautiful!!!! Can i ask the dimensions of the boards (width) 5/8 or 1" or more? Thank you and i hope you can respond
Hi, thanks. Of course, the width is 100mm (around 4") and the thickness is 20mm (around 3/4"). I hope it helped 👍😉
Great amazing video! What is the name of the chemical you used for the post?
Thanks! It has no special name, it’s chemical anchor resin. 👍
Brilliant ,,, but yea I’m not gonna be able to do that 😮
Thanks! Why not, go ahead and try it, it's not that hard! 😉
How is your parkside table saw motor holding up? Still happy with it?
Up to now, it’s working fine. It’s not the most powerful one but it does the job! 👍
What size in thickness for the threaded rods?
what was the drill bit size you used to make the hole in the beams for the treaded rod?
Hi, the thickness is in the video description under material used, but it was 12mm. I used also a 12mm drill bit and then used the rod itself to "tap" the thread in the wood. I hope it helped! 👍
Did you use the impact drill or regular drill for drilling into the concrete?
I assume the final size of the concrete drill bit used was 12mm correct?
Hello nice video what diameter was the threaded rod ?
Thanks 👍 the threaded rod is 12mm diameter. Check out the video description for the materials list I’ve used in his video.
Did you drill threads into the 4x4? And what is the plastic insert as well as the type of caulk you injected? What was set time also. Thks..jc
Hi, no, there's no need to drill threads, you just have to make sure the hole is wide enough to attach the threaded rod but at the same time having a tight fit. The plastic inserts are plastic sleeves specially made for this kind of chemical bushing. The set time is a couple of hours but I let it cure for at least one day before starting the rest of the installation. I hope it helped 👍
@@DMaker_builds So what is purpose of threaded rod as opposed to just pounding in a smooth rod?
I mean you open the thread as you are inserting the rod, don't need to tap the thread in advance. You can use a smooth rod but of course a threaded rod gives you a much tighter fit. Don't forget to use a double nut and a spanner to help tighten the rod in.
@@DMaker_builds Thks...jc
What is the spacing between the slats?
Hi, in this particular case is 11mm, but this was calculated to match the height of the fence, considering the height of each slat. 👍
my backyard wall is not brick made, but that wall was made with concrete and natural big rocks, can you suggest how can be built a wood fence on top of the wall with some base attachment?
This method also works well in concrete. You'll just need a stronger concrete drill and bit. As long as you have a fairly straight base you should be good. 😉👍
@@DMaker_builds thanks
Thank you!!
💚
Thanks! 👍
Love this, but lord woods are sooooooooooooooooooooo expensive in the US now.
Thanks man! Unfortunately the same happens in Europe right now. The prices of wood are getting really high!
Can I make them taller than this my wall that me and the neighbors next door is kinda short so I think I need to go taller 🤔
You can make it a little taller, but not much more, otherwise you’ll have to use a longer stud inside the wall. 👍
Very Nice -- how far apart are your posts?
Thanks! In one of the sides they are approximately 1.015m apart and on the other side they are 1.17m apart.
Boa noite Dinis, onde comprou a madeira?
Boa noite Jorge, no Sobreira e Serras. 👍
what's the name of the plastic tubes you are using, and where can we get them from?
These are plastic sleeves to be used with all kinds of chemical anchoring. You can find them here: geni.us/qt0kGyP.
Thank you
I like the way you did the fence. I am planning to do mines the same way. Thanks for sharing👍🏾
@@sunnysdelights8023 Thank you so much! I would love to see yours!
2yrs ago you did this wood wall onto a concrete block wall. Do you know anybody in Jacksonville, FL would do this kind of fence. The local fence companies want touch it. I've called them all! Please let me know!
Hi, unfortunately I'm not able to help you, since I'm from Portugal, Europe. Try to check other local companies.
how do you build the cement wall?
I haven't build the cement wall. It has already been built with the house.
@@DMaker_builds do you know how to make it?
@@Chichengee448 I have an idea but it's not my area. This is more construction works.
@@DMaker_builds whats the ideal
@@Chichengee448 you mean, the ideal height?
What the name of that sander
Hi, it's a Random Orbital Sander. You have the link of the exact model I use, in the description of the video. 👍
YOU WORK FLAWLESSLY
Thank you so much! 🙏 👍
chemical bushing????? what is that?
Is the same as chemical anchoring. In summary is a bonding compound that is inserted into the hole and promotes the adhesion of the metal and the concrete. Google it and you'll find a lot of information about it. 😉👍
Excellent barrier especially for my neighbor they make too much noise.
💪🤡☝️
😀Sure is a good visual barrier, but for the noise I'm not so sure 😂
@@DMaker_builds That too 👀too many peeping Toms
As a customer, when he said "only time will tell". That really turn me off. 🐼
You mean it happened to you as a customer? I’m not sure I understood your comment.
It means it doesn't instill much confidence when a customer buys a service and asks how long it'll last and the builder's answer is essentially "who knows?"
@@dptreed87 how long will a house last? Who the fuck knows. Depends if you look after it. What a goofy question
@@dptreed87 that's the only honest answer. Nobody can predict the future.
