What’s included with the 4x8 Steel Frame System

  • Each section includes one steel frame kit for the selected standard size
  • One post if posts are included
  • Selected approved infill
  • Standard hardware needed for the frame assembly path

To estimate quantity, divide your fence length by the section width. For example, 96' of fence uses sixteen 6' sections. If you are purchasing posts, you will normally need one more post than the number of fence sections. If you add a gate, plan for one additional post for the gate connection. Optional ending posts are priced online. 4' and 6' gates can be priced online.

Ordering Notes

Use online ordering when your standard size and quantity are known. Request a quote when the run includes custom transitions, uncertain quantities, or nonstandard conditions.

  • Use online ordering when your standard size, quantity, and infill selections are confirmed.
  • Request a quote for custom layout reviews, grade changes, unusual corners, or uncertain material counts.
  • Use catalog, specs, and installation resources before ordering when final quantities are still being confirmed.

How to Choose This Size vs Other Sizes

Compare height first, then bay width, then orientation limits. Smaller bays can simplify tight layouts; wider bays can reduce the number of sections on straight runs.

  • 4x6: 4' tall x 6' wide — Horizontal and vertical
  • 4x8: 4' tall x 8' wide — Vertical for all infill options; horizontal only for Designer Metal / Corrugated Metal
  • 6x6: 6' tall x 6' wide — Horizontal and vertical
  • 6x8: 6' tall x 8' wide — Horizontal for all infill options; vertical only for Designer Metal / Corrugated Metal
  • 8x6: 8' tall x 6' wide — Horizontal for all infill options; vertical only for Designer Metal / Corrugated Metal

Help Confirming Quantities

If you are unsure about panel counts, ending posts, transitions, gates, or infill orientation, send the layout through the quote path before purchasing.

  • Share total run lengths and desired height.
  • Note corners, ends, gates, slopes, and mounting conditions.
  • Perimtec can help confirm whether this standard size is the right fit.
