Customer Reviews for Barrette 5 ft. H x 6 ft. W Aluminum Black Fence Kit Picket Top (Not Assembled)

Fence panels go together easily. Fence looks nice once installed but is fairly lightweight aluminum so don't bump it with a mower or have a 300 pound guy lean against it or it will bend. Make sure to order the correct posts. This can be a bit confusing since there are several sizes offered by the company. Digging the holes is the hardest part of installing any fence. I dug them by hand with a post-hole digger but would recommend an auger to make it faster.

The aluminum fencing material and finish are of excellent quality. For the price, it makes an attractive and easy to install alternative to similar fences of sturdier wrought iron. The only problem I encountered was missing locking strips in two fence panel kits. The strips are critical to the assembly. It's unimaginable that these parts would be left out during packaging by the manufacturer. Other less critical parts were also missing from two of the fence posts. The Home Depot customer support person I contacted to fix the problem was instrumental in getting the missing parts shipped to me quickly from the manufacturer. All in all, the product is great, but the manufacturer needs to improve the quality control of assembly and shipping.
