Fence posts 5 pcs U-channel 160 cm steel with green hexagonal wire mesh 1.6 x 10 m VidaXL

This set combines five U-channel steel fence posts (160 cm) with a roll of green hexagonal wire mesh measuring 1.6 x 10 m. The posts are designed to hold the mesh in place and create a continuous barrier for gardens, small perimeters or plant protection. Coated steel surfaces provide basic resistance to outdoor conditions and allow a straightforward mechanical installation into soil or onto concrete with compatible fixings.

Advantages

The product offers a complete post-and-mesh solution that simplifies fence assembly without the need to buy posts and mesh separately. U-channel posts give consistent support along the mesh height and facilitate attachment with ties or clips. The green-coated hexagonal mesh blends with garden vegetation while providing visibility and airflow. Coated steel construction improves durability compared with untreated metal and is suitable for standard outdoor exposure when maintained.

Suitable for

• Garden fencing and plant protection
• Pet enclosures for small animals
• Temporary perimeter delineation
• Support for climbing plants and vines

When it may not be suitable

This set is intended for light- to medium-duty applications. It may not be suitable for heavy security requirements, high-impact zones, or locations with extreme weather and high corrosion risk unless additional protective measures are applied. For tall or load-bearing fences, longer or more robust posts and heavier mesh should be considered.

Key specifications

• Number of posts: 5 U-channel posts
• Post height: 160 cm
• Mesh type: hexagonal wire mesh
• Mesh dimensions: 1.6 m (height) x 10 m (length)
• Material: coated steel for posts and mesh
• Colour: green coating

How to use

Position the posts at regular intervals along the intended fence line and secure them in the ground by driving, tamping with concrete, or fixing to a base depending on the surface. Unroll the hexagonal mesh along the posts, keeping it taut, and attach it to the U-channel posts with suitable wire ties, clips or staples. Trim excess mesh where necessary and check alignment and tension before final fixing. Inspect connections periodically and perform touch-up corrosion protection if required.

What to consider before purchase

• Required fence height and whether 160 cm posts meet your needs
• Soil type and chosen method for securing posts (ground driving vs concrete)
• Local weather conditions and whether additional corrosion protection is needed
• Compatibility with available fixing accessories (ties, clips, post caps)

Usage recommendations

For longer service life, install posts with a portion below ground set in concrete in wet or loose soils, avoid placing the mesh in direct contact with soil where moisture accumulates, and periodically inspect coatings and joints to maintain structural integrity and appearance.
