VidaXL fencing posts U‑channel 22 pcs 140 cm galvanized steel with hexagonal wire mesh fence 1.4 x 100 m galvanized steel

This set contains 22 VidaXL U‑channel galvanized steel fence posts, each 140 cm high, combined with a roll of hexagonal wire mesh fence measuring 1.4 x 100 m in galvanized steel. The components are intended for constructing or repairing perimeter, garden and small agricultural fences. The U‑channel posts accept roll mesh and the galvanization of both posts and mesh provides basic corrosion protection suitable for outdoor use.

Advantages

The U‑channel posts offer a straightforward mounting method for rolled hexagonal mesh and ensure stable vertical support along a fence line. Galvanized steel construction gives resistance to rust and reduces maintenance compared with untreated steel. The included mesh roll is lightweight and flexible, enabling easier handling and faster installation over long runs.

Suitable for

• Garden borders and flowerbed protection
• Small animal enclosures and pet containment
• Temporary or permanent property boundary fences
• Light agricultural uses such as chicken runs or orchard protection

When it may not be suitable

This set is not designed for heavy-duty security fencing or high-load retaining applications. The post height of 140 cm and the 1.4 m mesh height suit low to medium fencing needs; for taller or more secure barriers, longer posts and heavier gauge materials would be required. Extremely exposed coastal environments with high salt spray may require additional protective coatings or stainless materials for longer lifespan.

Key specifications

• Number of posts: 22 U‑channel posts
• Post height: 140 cm
• Post material: Galvanized steel
• Mesh dimensions: 1.4 m (height) x 100 m (length) rolled hexagonal wire mesh
• Mesh material: Galvanized steel
• Mesh type: Hexagonal (rolled) with flexible structure for unrolling along fence line

How to use

Plan the fence line and mark post positions at regular intervals appropriate to local ground conditions and load (commonly 1.5–3 m apart). Insert the U‑channel posts into the ground to the required depth so they stand level and straight; depending on soil type, posts can be driven, tamped in, or set with concrete for increased stability. Unroll the mesh along the line and fit it into the U‑channel grooves of the posts, tensioning it as you progress to reduce sag. Secure the mesh to each post using suitable ties, clamps or staples compatible with galvanized steel. Trim any excess mesh and tuck or fold wire ends to avoid sharp edges.

What to consider before purchase

• Required fence height and whether 140 cm meets containment or privacy needs
• Ground conditions and whether posts will need concrete footings for stability
• Local regulations or boundary agreements that may affect fence placement and height
• Tools and fasteners needed for installation (post driver, tensioning tools, wire ties)

Usage recommendations

For longer service life, install posts with a minimum of 40–60 cm driven or concreted below ground depending on frost and soil type, and maintain tension in the mesh to prevent deformation. Regularly inspect galvanized coatings for damage and touch up or replace sections if significant corrosion appears.
