Erik,
 Good news. My
fence order was delivered today. I did like your instructions said and checked all
of the boxes and material while it was still on the truck. I even had my digital
camera ready to take pictures if something looked damage. Everything looked fine so
me and my wife unloaded it with the drivers help (I told him he didn't have to help but he
said only "union" drivers are that way and he helped us anyway). It took
less than 10 minutes to unload it by hand. Lots of peices were shrink wrapper
together and light enough for one person to carry so it was actually very easy. I
was expecting it to be much harder and take longer. (click
the image to see Mike's picture of how the fence was packaged.)
After unloading and the driver had left I inventoried the
material against the packing list. Everything on the packing list was accounted for
and I ended up with 4 extra pair of rebar retaining clips because the gate hardware
includes the clips for the gate post and I had also ordered them separately.
I will try to take some digital pictures when I build the
fence and send some to you later. It looks like I won't be able to start the fence
for at least a couple of more weeks because the pool deck probably won't be done until
then and I don't want to take the chance of the fence being damaged while they are still
building the pool and deck.
Thanks for the excellent service and tell Frank his drawing
program is a great Internet tool and he deserves a big head for it.
