A tool for use with a hammer driver having a pin-accepting socket for driving a ground rod into the ground includes a body having two opposite side faces and at least one ground rod-accepting passageway extending between the two side faces. The tool also includes a guide pin which is joined to so as to extend from one of the side faces of the body and an elongated socket portion having first and second opposite ends and having a hollow interior which opens out of a first end of the socket portion. In addition, the socket portion is secured to the other side face of the body by way of the second end so that the first end extends away from the other side face of the body, and the guide pin and the elongated socket portion are axially-aligned with one another.

A system for measuring fence posts in a fence run includes a leading unit and a trailing unit. The leading unit includes a first measurement wire extending through a first rotary encoder and terminating in a second rotary encoder, a second measurement wire terminating in a third rotary encoder, and a third measurement wire terminating in a fourth rotary encoder, as well as a clamp to secure the leading unit to a fence post. The trailing unit includes a first rotary encoder to engage with the first measurement wire of the leading unit and a measurement wire terminating in a second rotary encoder, as well as a clamp to secure the trailing unit to a fence post.

A bollard setting and installation system for efficiently installing a bollard wall without any restrictions relating to proximity to water or flood plains. The bollard setting and installation system generally includes a setting frame which is positioned on a ground surface. A plurality of bollards is positioned on the setting frame in a desired spacing and orientation to form a bollard wall. A vehicle having a vehicle arm connected to a lifting frame is positioned such that the bollards are secured to the lifting frame by clamps in the desired spacing and orientation. The vehicle may then move the lifting frame to position the lower ends of the bollards in an opening in the ground surface. Concrete may be poured to encapsulate the lower ends of the bollards. The lifting frame may then be removed, with the bollard wall being free-standing in the ground surface.

Interactive systems and methods are provided for designing and constructing fences or other structures supported by posts, including methods which enable users to design custom fence panels and be presented with dynamic visual representations of such custom fence panels.

A wire terminator device for fences and barriers which has two bodies. The first body houses a wire retaining mechanism and the second body stems from the first body and includes an engagement element where the wire is retained in the usage position. The engagement element forming the second body is defined by a through passage in the direction of passage of the wire and a single inlet groove that is oblique with respect to the direction of passage of the wire. The single inlet groove is arranged in the same plane of the direction of passage of the wire in the usage position.

A sub-surface pole and pole foundation remover having a portable frame, a cylinder mounted on the frame and configured to receive pressurized fluid, a lifting piston slidably mounted in the cylinder, a grapnel connected to the lifting piston and having a plurality of lower arms that extend from a bottom circular support and that are configured to grip a sub-surface pole located below ground, and a control lever configured to direct the pressurized fluid to the cylinder that is actuated to cause the lifting piston to extend and push the grapnel upward relative to the portable frame to remove the pole from the ground. The grapnel may have a top circular support and a middle circular support connected to the top circular support by a plurality of flexible cables. A cinching cable may be used to grip the pole, the grapnel may have gripping teeth and fluid may be hydraulic.
