br0wnd0g23 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Would anyone know of someone to build a cheap fence, cost per m would be helpful. Chain link or better would be ok. We are building a house and would rather use out funds on the house rather than a fence. Short term maybe a year or so. Thanks. Hang dong chiang mai.

Dante99 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Chain link is not cheap. How high? Gates? How long, longer cheaper? Go find the materials you want to use, price and photograph them. Measure the length of the fence and decide abut gates. Then you are ready to talk with somebody about putting it in for you and you are ready to buy the materials. The guys building your house can do the fence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBrad Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 From personal experience you want to make sure that your fence is installed properly. That seems like a no-brainer, but I've seen very few chain link fences done well. Of particular concern should be the depth of the posts into the ground and the stretching of the fence for a professional appearance. You will have trouble finding a crew of workers here who know how to do it right. Most people apparently are satisfied with getting something in place to keep the dogs in or out, whatever you're aiming for. Mai pen rai is usually the bottom line. Take a minute to absorb the points given in these two videos. They'll show you how it should be done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRv-Oy6rUDo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qzvt9aJpHSM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
br0wnd0g23 Posted June 24, 2016 Author Share Posted June 24, 2016 Thanks. To be honest we just want a half decent fence that is not gonna costs a massive amount. We got a quote of about 350000 from the builder. Seemed a but steep. And also a figure just plucked out of the air. Anyway thanks for feedbacks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfieconn Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) For quick and cheap, Concrete post's and Bamboo fencing, post's approx 120 baht, 2.5 meter length's fencing app 120 baht. Dig down down 2 feet for the post's, attach the Bamboo fencing with wire and good to go for a minimum of 3 year's. Concrete post's can be used if you want to upgrade in years to come.

Nienke Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 6 meters 3" diameter metal poles for 300 baht. You can ask the shop to cut the poles into 2 or 3 meter pieces, or whatever length you prefer.Shop is on left side, when coming from Superhighway and heading to the railway station. About half way. Don't know name of shop. And 10 meters rolls of 1 meter high and 2" chain link fence for 680 baht. Shop is just before PTT station and next to big pet shop on Mae Jo road, just passed the Mee Chok market. They also have 1.20, 1.50, 1.80 and 2.00 meter rolls and with 1.5 " chain links.
