Scope Of Work
This job required us to tear down 900 linear feet of 4' high fence and replace it with 8' high anti climb chain link fence with a 20' wide double drive gate for access to the site. We also had to tear down and replace 500 linear feet of old Iron fence and replace with new aluminum security fence. this job had its set back as we started out due to the fact it was in the heart of Frankfurt Ave. Traffic and pedestrians as well as some really old trees with big roots seemed to always be in the way. We overcame some of the odds by pure will others we needed to first drive 2" pipe in the ground then secure posts with the round pipe to square pipe bracketing kits to get past some of the obstacles in the way. This project was a huge success due to the fact the cemetery was being vandalized due to the disrepair of the old fence system. This new and Improved fence system should help keep the cemetery safe and clean for the people who have loved ones that have passed. This project was also on the news for the cemetery being Vandalized and so was our new fence system.
