  • Stretch the material to the next post, locate the nearest pocket and repeat Steps A-B for all posts.

    Raise the fence open pocket and slide the material approximately 12 inches over the post and cap combination. (Remaining material can be loosely draped over for now.)

    Installing your Pocket-NetTM fencing is this easy!Start at foul line

    After all Pocket Poles are installed...

    It’s easy to replace damaged Pocket NetTM Fence

    PULL TIGHT to next pocket PULL TIGHT to next pocket

    Ground Level

    Install 12” of fencingfor remaining

    poles

    Once you have successfully attached all of the required pockets, the material can be pulled down to the bottom end of each post. For best appearance, confirm that the fence is tightly stretched between each post and does not sag. Any excess fencing can be easily cut with sharp scissors.

    Find the first opening or “post pocket” by running your hand along the bottom edge of the fence material; pull pocket open.

    Gathering material 12” at the top of each pole will make it easier to stretch the material to the next one in line.

    Proceed one pole at a time until entire roll looks like this

    (excess fence is hanging down).

    It’s as easy as pulling on socks!
