Yes. Installing a steel fence is within the capabilities of most competent DIY’er’s. A detailed installation guide is available here: LYSAGHT Fencing Installation Guide
You will need 2 fence posts, 2 universal rails (a top and bottom rail), 3 fencing infill sheets, 14 self-drilling screws and your choice of post caps.
The standard heights are 1200mm, 1500mm, 1800mm and 2100mm.
LYSAGHT® fences feature prepainted galvanised steel posts and COLORBOND® steel infill sheets. Immersing the galvanised steel posts in concrete does not cause any corrosion problems but you should not allow the concrete to contact the rails or infill sheets of the fence.
You should check with your local council for regulations on fences around pool areas. Particular care needs to be taken if LYSAGHT® steel fencing is to be installed within the 'splash zone'. Both salt and chlorine may have a corrosive effect on the COLORBOND® steel finish and as such, may impact the life of your fence and negate a warranty claim.
No. LYSAGHT® fencing has not been designed or tested for use in this application. It is highly likely the soil will cause corrosion of the COLORBOND® steel from which the fence is manufactured.
COLORBOND® steel fences should not be installed within 1 kilometre of marine, severe industrial or other corrosive environments.
In some states of Australia, steel roofing falls under the category of plumbing, which can only be performed by a licensed contractor. Please refer to your local authority for advice relevant to your state.
In some states of Australia, installation of guttering falls under the category of plumbing, which can only be performed by a licensed contractor. Please refer to your local authority for advice relevant to your state.
Factors that most affect the long life of a roof (or wall, gutter, fence) are original design, the environment of the installation, and the maintenance of the installation. Maintenance is probably the biggest factor.
Maintenance includes:
It is best not to touch up minor damage, such as scratches, with paint. Minor scratches will not affect the performance of your LYSAGHT® product because the metal alloy coatings on the steel effectively protect any cut edges or scratches from corrosion.
Yes. Download Technical Bulletin TB 02 - Overpainting & Restoration of Exterior BlueScope Steel Products (May 2019, 121 KB) for instructions.
However, please be aware that painting will void any material warranty that may be applicable.
The paint system on LYSAGHT® steel products is very durable. Where the paint finish is naturally washed by rainwater (roofs, for example) there is usually no additional maintenance needed. For other areas such as walls and fences a simple wash down with water every six months is all that is generally required.
Where regular maintenance doesn’t remove all the dirt, wash the surface with a mild solution of pure soap or non-abrasive non-ionic kitchen detergent in warm water. Use a sponge, soft cloth or soft bristle nylon brush; be gentle to prevent shiny spots. Thoroughly rinse off the detergent with clean water. Never use abrasive or solvent cleaners (like turps, petrol, kerosene and paint thinners) on COLORBOND® steel surfaces.
Lysaght does not recommend the use of touch-up paint to repair damage or scratches to the painted surface of its product. These air drying paints have different weathering characteristics to COLORBOND® steel, leading to variations in appearance over time where touch-up paint has been used.
Minor scratches (< 2mm in width and unnoticeable from ground level) should be left alone as the available metallic coating will protect against corrosion. If scratches are more noticeable on new material, LYSAGHT® recommend replacement of the affected product.
