[QUOTE="JSteim, post: 1559607, member: 23791"] I have some 20 foot continuous fence panels to build a working pen. I have never built this kind of fence before. Since the fence is all metal I would think it expands and contracts a fair amount as temps change. How do you account for this expansion when putting in the corner posts? I assume you need to leave some amount of slack where the panels connect so that it does not bind when it heats up. For example the first side I want to put up is nominally 80 feet long made up of 4 20 foot panels. How far apart should my corner posts be for this? [/QUOTE]
