VidaXL fence posts U-Channel set 10 pcs, galvanized steel, 160 cm for hexagonal wire mesh 1.6x10 m

The VidaXL U-Channel fence posts set includes 10 galvanized steel posts, each 160 cm high, designed to support hexagonal wire mesh fencing sized 1.6 x 10 m. Each post features a U-shaped channel profile that secures the mesh roll along the post length and simplifies installation. The zinc coating provides corrosion resistance for outdoor use and helps maintain structural integrity over multiple seasons.

Advantages

The U-channel profile ensures firm fixation of hexagonal wire mesh without the need for complex fasteners, while the galvanized steel construction resists rust and weathering. A uniform post height of 160 cm allows for consistent tensioning and a neat finished appearance. The set of 10 posts is sized to match a typical 1.6 x 10 m mesh roll and supports straightforward, modular fence assembly.

Suitable for

• Installing or repairing perimeter garden fences
• Creating small livestock pens or poultry runs
• Securing slope edges or boundary markers on residential properties
• Temporary or semi-permanent enclosures where hexagonal wire mesh is used

When it may not be suitable

These U-channel posts are intended to be used with hexagonal wire mesh rolls around 1.6 x 10 m and may not be appropriate for heavier-duty fencing systems that require thicker posts, concrete footings, or welded mesh panels. They are not designed for mounting heavy gates or supporting high-security barriers where engineered posts and anchors are required.

Key specifications

• Material: galvanized steel
• Post profile: U-channel
• Post height: 160 cm
• Quantity: 10 posts per set
• Intended mesh size: compatible with hexagonal wire mesh approximately 1.6 x 10 m
• Surface treatment: zinc coating for corrosion resistance

How to use

Position posts at regular intervals along the intended fence line, typically matching the length of the mesh roll and local installation practices. Set posts in firm soil or in shallow concrete footings as required for stability. Slide the hexagonal wire mesh into the U-shaped channels along each post, align the mesh vertically and tension it before securing with suitable ties or clips. Trim excess mesh and verify that the top and bottom are level and properly anchored.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility with the exact dimensions of your hexagonal wire mesh roll.
• Assess ground conditions to decide if additional anchoring or concrete footings are needed.
• Check local regulations for fence height and setback requirements.
• Plan for additional accessories such as tension wire, ties, or corner posts if building a continuous fence.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the posts with matching-dimension hexagonal wire mesh, install posts at consistent spacing, and apply recommended tension gradually to avoid deforming the mesh. Regularly inspect the zinc coating and touch up any damaged areas to prolong service life.
