Description

1.8m x 75mm x 75mm Wooden Fence Post – Pressure Treated Green

Lightweight post ideal for low fencing and 1.2m picket panels

This 1.8m x 75mm x 75mm fence post is UC4 pressure treated in green for long-lasting ground contact use. Its slimmer profile makes it perfect for lighter applications such as 1.2m high picket fencing, low boundary runs, and decorative areas of the garden.

It’s an economical alternative to bulkier 100mm posts, yet still suitable for smaller panel fencing where wind exposure is minimal.

Compatible Fencing Systems

Picket Fencing

Well-suited for supporting 1.2m high picket fencing, including both round top and pointed top options. Its height allows for secure burial while maintaining a full 1.2m above-ground height.

Light Panel Fencing

May be used with small lap fence panels under 1.2m when installed in sheltered areas. For privacy fencing or stronger applications, we recommend upgrading to 100mm x 100mm fence posts.

Installation Recommendations

Clarke Fencing recommends a 2ft (60cm) burial depth to provide adequate wind resistance and strength. Secure using 1.5 to 2 bags of Postcrete per post. For added durability, consider Post Saver Sleeves to protect against rot at ground level.
