Garden Fence Posts VidaXL U-Channel 22 pcs, gray, 150 cm steel for 1.5x100 m hexagonal fence

Set of 22 VidaXL U-Channel garden fence posts in gray steel, each 150 cm high, designed for use with a 1.5 x 100 m hexagonal (chicken) wire fence. The U-channel profile delivers linear rigidity and straightforward mounting for mesh panels or rolls, making these posts suitable for creating perimeter enclosures, garden borders and animal pens where a durable steel support is required for outdoor use.

Advantages

These VidaXL U-Channel posts are made from steel with a gray finish that resists weathering and provides mechanical strength for supporting hexagonal mesh. The uniform 150 cm height and U-shaped cross-section simplify alignment and attachment of wire mesh along a fence run. Supplied as a set of 22 pieces, the kit reduces the need to source individual posts and helps ensure consistent spacing and appearance for medium-length fencing projects.

Suitable for

• Support for 1.5 x 100 m hexagonal (chicken) wire fence rolls
• Garden boundaries and vegetable plot enclosures
• Small animal enclosures and chicken coops
• Temporary or semi-permanent perimeter fencing

When it may not be suitable

These steel U-channel posts are specified at 150 cm height and intended to pair with hexagonal mesh fencing of the indicated dimensions; they may not be suitable for applications requiring taller posts or for heavy-duty security fencing. They are not finished as a decorative element, so projects requiring a specific ornamental look or custom paint should plan for additional surface treatment.

Key specifications

• Quantity: 22 posts
• Material: steel
• Finish: gray
• Height: 150 cm per post
• Profile: U-channel cross-section for mesh attachment
• Intended fence type: hexagonal (chicken) wire, 1.5 x 100 m

How to use

Plan the fence line and mark post positions at appropriate spacing for the hexagonal mesh being used. Dig post holes or use surface mounting methods suitable for your ground conditions, then insert each U-channel post vertically and ensure they are plumb. Fix the bottom of the mesh to the posts first, then unroll and tension the mesh along the run, securing it to the U-channel flanges with appropriate clips, wire ties or staples. Check alignment and tension progressively and cut mesh to size where needed. Finish any exposed steel edges with rust-inhibiting paint if additional corrosion protection is required for your environment.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the 150 cm height meets your required fence height and local regulations.
• Verify compatibility with your hexagonal wire dimensions and required post spacing.
• Assess ground conditions and installation method (in-ground set, concrete footings, or surface mounts).
• Consider additional corrosion protection or paint if used in highly corrosive environments.

Usage recommendations

For stable results, install posts with consistent spacing and proper vertical alignment; use tensioning tools to keep the hexagonal mesh straight and secure mesh at multiple points along each post. Treat cut edges and welds with protective coating in coastal or high-humidity locations to extend service life.
