Solar Panel Install

[MaxxFusion]

I am installing my solar panels now and have them laid on the ground. I am trying to figure out the best way to mount them. I was thinking of making some type of rack. I was also thinking about mounting them up off the ground on my Privacy Fence. I would build out the bottom a bite so they would be angled. I am just not sure about putting the extra weight on the fence posts. I have a standar 6' treated fence with 4x4s every 8'. THis would be nice because it wouldnt take up any room and its out of the way.

So how did you mount your panels?

My 4x20 is mounted on a rack made of outdoor plywood and pressure treated 2x4's. Mat is also tied to this monster with a few loops of blue poly boat rope to keep the wind from getting it. However you do it make sure it's secured...they can get airborne very easily.

Poconos? Is your mat made out of 2 2x20? or 1 4x20?
I was thinking that if it is 2 2x20 then I need to make the length longer than 4 feet right? because of that connection on the middle that connects 2 panels together.

My 2 2x20s measure about 52" while next to each other.

See if this is something that you were looking for.

Thanks,
