Fence Posts VidaXL U-Channel 80 cm Galvanized Steel, Hexagonal Fence 0.8 x 25 m Galvanized Steel (set)

This set contains 11 VidaXL U-channel fence posts, each 80 cm tall and made of galvanized steel, together with a hexagonal mesh fence panel measuring 0.8 x 25 m in galvanized steel. The components are intended to form a simple, corrosion-resistant perimeter or garden barrier: the U-channel posts serve as mounting supports for the hexagonal mesh panel and provide a straightforward method to install and tension the mesh along a property line or around green areas.

Advantages

The galvanized steel construction offers protection against rust and weathering for outdoor applications, while the U-channel profile simplifies attaching and aligning the mesh panel. Supplied as a matched set, the posts and the hexagonal fence panel are sized to work together, reducing the need to source compatible mounting elements separately. The 80 cm post height is suitable for low fences and provides stable support when embedded or fixed to a base.

Suitable for

• Garden and yard enclosures to mark boundaries or protect planting areas
• Temporary or semi-permanent mesh fencing for small livestock or pets
• Sectioning off construction or storage areas where low-height fencing is sufficient
• DIY fencing projects requiring corrosion-resistant posts and mesh

When it may not be suitable

The included 80 cm U-channel posts and 0.8 x 25 m hexagonal mesh panel are intended for low to medium containment and visual screening; they are not designed for high-security applications or to restrain large or strongly jumping animals. For very tall fences, heavy-duty barriers, or locations requiring significant impact resistance, more substantial posts, taller panels, or additional anchoring solutions will be required.

Key specifications

• Post type: U-channel profile
• Post material: galvanized steel
• Post height: 80 cm (each)
• Number of posts: 11
• Panel type: hexagonal mesh
• Panel material: galvanized steel
• Panel dimensions: 0.8 m high x 25 m long
• Intended use: outdoor fencing, garden perimeter

How to use

Position the U-channel posts along the planned fence line at regular intervals, ensuring consistent spacing that matches the panel length and any local installation requirements. Secure each post by embedding it in the ground, fixing to a concrete footing, or mounting to a solid base depending on soil and site conditions. Unroll the hexagonal mesh panel and align its edges with the posts; insert the mesh into the U-channels and fasten with appropriate clips, ties, or stainless-steel wire to hold the panel taut and level. Trim excess mesh at the ends as needed and check that all connections are secure to maintain panel tension and stability.

What to consider before purchase

• Required fence height and whether 80 cm posts and 0.8 m panel height meet your containment and privacy needs
• Ground conditions and mounting method (in-ground, concrete footings, or mounted base)
• Spacing between posts for adequate support of a 25 m panel length and local wind or load conditions
• Need for additional accessories such as clips, tension wire, corner posts, gates, or end-post reinforcements

Usage recommendations

For best long-term performance, install posts with appropriate depth or concrete footings in frost-prone areas, apply additional corrosion protection at cut edges if any trimming is required, and use stainless-steel fasteners or UV-resistant ties to reduce corrosion and maintenance. Regularly inspect the mesh and fixings and retension or replace damaged sections to preserve fence integrity.
