How to use
Plan the fence layout and mark post positions at regular intervals suitable for the chosen panels or mesh. Excavate holes or prepare foundations for each post and set the posts vertically, ensuring correct alignment and level. Secure posts in concrete or with appropriate ground anchors depending on soil and local conditions. Attach fence panels, boards or wire to the U-channel profile using suitable fasteners; check manufacturer recommendations for compatible fixing types. Inspect the assembly for plumb and make adjustments before concrete fully cures.
What to consider before purchase
- Required number of posts per meter/section based on panel width and desired spacing
- Compatibility of panel or mesh fixing methods with a U-channel profile
- Ground conditions and whether concrete footings or anchors are needed
- Whether protective coatings or additional corrosion protection are required for your environment
Usage recommendations
For long-term performance, install posts in concrete footings suited to local frost depth and soil type, use corrosion-resistant fasteners, and inspect connections periodically. When attaching timber panels, pre-drill and use appropriate screws or brackets to avoid damaging the post profile and ensure a secure fit.
