According to a 2021 study by the International Casual Furnishings Association, nearly 90% of Americans say that having an outdoor space to enjoy as part of their home is more important than ever. In fact, demand for outdoor living spaces has been on the rise for years, due largely to pandemic conditions and the stay-at-home movement. Often, these outdoor living spaces include privacy fences, which provide both home and business owners with protection, privacy, safety, and even noise cancelation.

Traditional gates are certainly still popular, but if your customer is looking for the perfect mix of style and longevity, it's hard to beat a metal gate fence kit from Perimtec. That's especially true in Metro Dallas, TX, where weather conditions and other factors make metal gate fencing a smart choice.
Ordinary gates are problematic because they are typically mounted to walls or fences made entirely of wood or wood with a flimsy metal frame.

Building a fence for the first time is no easy task. In fact, one of the most common fence-building mistakes stems from a lack of experience. However, even experienced fencing contractors can make mistakes or misremember best practices learned over time. Fortunately, a privacy fence kit in McKinney, TX from Perimtec TX is easy to assemble, making the job enjoyable for both pros and DIY first-timers. Whether you're a first-time fencing homeowner or a seasoned contractor, keep these tips in mind.
When installing a fence, you've got to be consistent and make sure that your post holes are deep enough. Rushing through the installation process and making the post holes too shallow can weaken the fence. Typically, you'll need to dig holes between 30 inches and 36 inches deep, depending on the type of fence. If the holes aren't deep enough, the fence may start to lean or even fall over completely. That's why it's so important to take your time and dig your post holes to the appropriate depth.
Whether you encounter this issue or not largely depends on your yard or the area where you're building a fence. One of the most difficult parts of building a fence by yourself is to consider the minor changes in elevation while placing the posts. To keep the fence line straight, you must figure out the difference in rise and fall for each section of your yard
Installing a fence on your neighbor's property can be a costly and frustrating mistake. Your neighbor has the legal right to ask you to remove the fence if it's on their land. To avoid such issues, we recommend confirming your property line before you start the installation process. You should also consider leaving a 12-inch barrier just to be safe. The goal here is to build a beautiful, useful fence, not to create more expenses for yourself.
You should know that not every type of fence is allowed in the Metro Dallas region. Before installing a fence, be sure that you adhere to any height limitations and boundary requirements. Depending on your location, some places may permit fencing on a property line, while others may require an offset. In addition to verifying your local zoning laws, you should also check with your local Homeowner's Association (HOA) as they may have strict guidelines on the types of fences (and sometimes the colors) you can build. If you're building a pool fence, it's essential to ensure that your fence complies with local and/or state safety codes.
When installing a gate, measuring the area accurately and accounting for any hardware deductions is important. Also, make sure to install sturdy hinge posts from which to hang the gate. You should also check the ground below the gate to ensure it is level. If the ground isn't level, make sure the far end of the gate is positioned high enough off the ground to allow movement. To make your life easier, consider a gate frame kit from Perimtec, which comes with everything you need to build a stylish yet functional fence gate.

Contract approved to aid design as city aims to create Metroplex's third commercial airport
MCKINNEY, Texas — This article was originally published by our content partners at the Dallas Business Journal. You can read the original article here.
McKinney National Airport is on track to break ground this spring on a new terminal, the next step in a grand plan to create the third commercial airport in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
The McKinney City Council on Feb. 18 unanimously approved a pre-construction contract with California-based Swinerton Builders for a new commercial terminal, which is expected to be a $72 million investment.
The city received applications from nine companies and five were considered for the project, said Patricia Jackson, facilities construction manager for the City of McKinney. Swinerton was selected for its competitive fee structure of 1.95%, she added. The pre-construction services will cost up to $35,000, according to the Feb. 18 presentation.
"We are interested in getting the construction manager at risk into the design process as quickly as possible so that we can do that testing and constructibility review," Jackson said during the meeting. "Garver, as the airport engineer of record, has done most of the civil work … we’re working onthe terminal design right now."
The McKinney Planning and Zoning Commission on Jan. 14 unanimously approved site plan changes for the expanded airport.
The new terminal at McKinney National Airport, which goes by airport code "TKI," represents a new way forward for expansion plans at the city-owned facility. Voters in 2023 rejected a $200 million bond proposal to fund airport expansion.
Now, funding will come from a mix of local and federal sources and plans have been scaled back, reducing the new terminal size from 144,000 square feet to 45,000 square feet. The new terminal will also have a 9-acre aircraft apron, 1,500 additional parking spaces and a new roundabout to handle traffic from FM 546. McKinney City Council had previously approved the same site plan in a 5-2 vote on Jan. 7.
Funding for the project comes from a $1.7 million grant from the McKinney Economic Development Corp., a $3.6 million grant from the McKinney Community Development Corp. and a $30 million federal loan. An additional $22.4 million grant from the McKinney EDC could also be awarded in the near future. Design efforts are currently supported by a $5.4 million grant from the McKinney EDC and CDC.
The city plans to fill the $14.3 million funding gap through federal or state transportation funds or tax increment reinvestment zones.
While there has been continued opposition from some nearby residents, city officials believe the expanded airport will significantly boost McKinney's economy and provide residents with a more convenient travel option. In a Jan. 22 op-ed, McKinney Mayor George Fuller stated that the expansion is expected to increase the airport’s annual economic impact from $300 million today to nearly $1 billion within five years.
"With a modern 7,500-foot runway (soon to be 8,000 feet), TKI can accommodate any domestic commercial aircraft, positioning it as a vital asset for Collin County and well positioned to provide air transportation relief in North Texas," Fuller wrote. "More automobile traffic is generated by our new H-E-B, located in the center of town … than the 2,000 daily passengers and employees that would be at TKI, on the outskirts of town, ultimately serviced by major highways, with the projected six to 12 flights per day."
Terminal construction is anticipated to begin in May and, if all goes according to plan, commercial flights could begin by mid-2026. Anticipated routes include service to Orlando, Denver, Las Vegas, New York and Los Angeles, according to the McKinney Courier-Gazette. The city is currently negotiating contracts with two airlines for commercial service, according to a Jan. 8 announcement.
City leaders want to make McKinney National Airport the third commercial airport in the Metroplex, after DFW International Airport and Dallas Love Field. The commercial terminal will initially open with three gates, with the potential to expand to five in the future. Airport officials predict serving 200,000 passengers in the first year of operation, with an average of three daily departures. By 2031, the airport could serve 1 million passengers a year.
McKinney National is today a general aviation airport. That means it hosts private planes, whether recreational fliers or corporate jets. Current companies operating out of the airport include Toyota, Texas Instruments and Cirrus Aircraft, which offers flight training. Currently, the airport services an average of 400 flights per day, according to Fuller.
Plans to expand the east side of the airport have been in place since 2018 when the city purchased a 190-acre tract for future development.
