Garden Fence Posts VidaXL U-Channel 22 pcs Gray 160 cm Steel with Hexagonal Wire Mesh 1.6 x 100 m Gray Steel

Set includes 22 VidaXL U-channel garden fence posts in gray, each 160 cm tall, and a roll of gray hexagonal wire mesh measuring 1.6 x 100 m. The posts are made of steel and designed to be used together with the hexagonal mesh to form a continuous barrier for gardens, enclosures or landscaping projects. This combination provides a structural support system and the mesh gives a flexible yet strong covering suitable for securing perimeters, keeping small animals contained or marking boundaries.

Advantages

The steel U-channel posts offer straightforward mounting and stable support for hexagonal wire mesh, while the included roll of mesh ensures a complete set for immediate installation. Steel construction provides durability for outdoor exposure, and the gray finish blends with common garden and landscape environments. The combination of individual posts and a long mesh roll allows for flexible layout and adaptation to different terrain and boundary lengths.

Suitable for

• Perimeter fencing for residential gardens and yards
• Enclosures for small livestock, poultry or pets
• Protecting planted areas and landscaping from wildlife
• Temporary or semi-permanent boundary marking around properties

When it may not be suitable

This set is intended for light to medium-duty fence applications; it may not be suitable where high security, heavy-duty containment or climbing prevention is required. The steel components are designed for outdoor use but may require additional corrosion protection or maintenance in highly corrosive coastal or industrial environments.

Key specifications

• Number of U-channel posts: 22 pieces
• Post material: steel
• Post height: 160 cm
• Mesh type: hexagonal wire mesh
• Mesh material: steel
• Mesh dimensions: 1.6 m (height) x 100 m (length)
• Colour: gray

How to use

Plan the fence line and determine post spacing according to desired rigidity and terrain. Insert the U-channel posts in the ground at regular intervals, ensuring consistent vertical alignment and secure embedment depth. Unroll the hexagonal wire mesh along the line of posts and fix the mesh to each U-channel using appropriate ties, clips or staples suitable for outdoor steel use. Tension the mesh as needed to reduce sagging, cutting to length at the end points and attaching to terminal posts or anchors for a neat finish. Regularly inspect fixings and tension, and touch up any coating or corrosion-prone areas.

What to consider before purchase

• Required fence length and whether the 100 m roll of mesh and 22 posts cover your perimeter
• Ground conditions and whether additional foundation or anchoring is needed for stability
• Local climate and potential need for extra corrosion protection or coating
• Tools and fasteners needed for installation (wire ties, clips, tensioning tools)

Usage recommendations

For best results, space posts uniformly (commonly 1.5–2.5 m apart depending on terrain and load), use galvanized or rust-resistant fasteners, and tension the hexagonal mesh during installation to minimise sagging and ensure long-term performance.
