Product Overview
Green pressure-treated softwood post, measuring 2400mm (8ft) in length with a 100mm x 100mm (4" x 4") section. The timber is treated under high pressure to resist rot, fungal decay, and insect attack, while the square-cut top allows for post caps or finials.
A strong, rigid post size for domestic fencing, it provides dependable support for 1.8m (6ft) panels (without gravel board) or 1.5m (5ft) panels with one gravel board. The 4x4 section is a standard choice for use throughout fence lines, including ends, corners, and gates.
