Fence U‑Channel Posts VidaXL 100 cm galvanized steel set of 22

Set of 22 VidaXL U‑Channel posts, each 100 cm long, manufactured from galvanized steel for outdoor perimeter applications. These U‑channel posts are designed to support chain link, wire fencing and other lightweight barriers. The galvanized finish helps reduce corrosion and extends service life in garden, allotment and temporary enclosure settings where multiple posts of uniform height are required.

Advantages

The U‑channel shape provides straightforward vertical support and makes installation compatible with common fittings for wire and chain link fences. Galvanized steel construction offers increased resistance to rust compared with untreated metal, suitable for outdoor exposure. Supplied as a set of 22 identical posts, the package simplifies purchases for runs of fencing that need consistent height and alignment.

Suitable for

• Supporting chain link or wire mesh fencing in domestic gardens
• Temporary enclosures and site segregation
• Allotment boundaries and small perimeter fences
• Projects requiring multiple posts of the same height

When it may not be suitable

These posts are intended for light to medium duty perimeter use; they are not designed for heavy structural loads such as supporting large gates, high-tension fences, or load-bearing constructions. For very windy locations, exposed coastal sites with extreme corrosion risk, or where higher mechanical strength is needed, more substantial posts or additional anchoring methods should be considered.

Key specifications

• Material: galvanized steel
• Post type: U‑channel profile
• Post length: 100 cm
• Quantity in set: 22 posts
• Surface finish: zinc galvanization for corrosion resistance

How to use

Select appropriate spacing for your fence design, typically between 1.5 and 3 meters depending on fence type and local conditions. Position posts in a straight line, mark locations, then dig holes or prepare sleeves according to the chosen anchoring method. Place each U‑channel post vertically and secure in concrete or compacted soil; ensure correct alignment and plumb before the material sets. Attach fence mesh or wire to the posts using suitable clips, ties or brackets compatible with U‑channel profiles. Regularly inspect fixings and touch up any damaged galvanization to maintain corrosion protection.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the 100 cm length matches your required finished fence height and any ground burial depth needed for stability
• Assess whether 22 posts fit the run length and spacing of your specific project
• Check local soil conditions and whether concrete footings or sleeves are required for sufficient support
• Ensure compatibility of fittings and fasteners with U‑channel profile and galvanized finish

Usage recommendations

For best results, use appropriate concrete footings for each post where long-term stability is required, and apply zinc‑compatible touch-up paint to any scratched areas after installation. Regularly inspect for loose fixings and corrosion, especially in high-moisture or coastal environments, to maintain the performance of the fence system.
