Fence replacement

Anyone got any tips on the best way to replace 6ft fence panels ? Any magic tricks to try ?


They are going into concrete posts and obviously just slide in but the new ones are incredibly heavy so not too sure hows best to proceed.
Bow Ties ARE cool :cool:

    may sound obvious but 2 people will make it easier, plus step ladder(s). And pick a day without too much wind!

    If they are double paling panels then if you remove the last upright piece on a panel, you can then put the panel in without having to slide it down. Once in place re attach the last upright to make a snug fit between the posts.
