What Fence Post Should I Use?

The best timber fence post for your project depends on several factors, including the type of fence you're building, the soil conditions, and your budget. For most standard fencing projects, a 4-inch pressure-treated pine post provides a good balance of cost, strength, and longevity. Here are some key considerations:

Wood Type

Pressure-Treated Pine: Commonly used and affordable, pressure-treated pine is resistant to rot, decay, and insect damage, making it a durable choice for most fencing projects.

What Size Fence Post Do I Need?

• 3 inch Posts / 75mm are suitable for lighter, decorative fences, such as picket fences or garden fencing. They’re easier to handle and more cost-effective.
• 4-inch/ 100mm Posts are ideal for more substantial fencing projects, such as privacy fences or where greater strength and stability are required.
• Consider Soil Conditions
     - In soft or sandy soils, opt for thicker posts (4-inch or larger) and ensure they are set deep enough for stability.
     - In rocky or clay soils, a standard 3- or 4-inch post should suffice, but proper installation is crucial.

What Height Post Do I Need For My Fence?

• We recommend putting 2ft / 60cm of the post in the ground. If your fence is 6ft high, you'll need an 8ft post.
