Post and Rail fencing is a classic timber design used for practical boundary marking. Common in rural settings, it’s also the industry standard for motorway and highway borders. Sturdy upright posts support horizontal rails, forming a simple, effective barrier that clearly separates public roads from private land.
The straightforward design of Post and Rail fencing is highly effective for boundary demarcation. While used in agricultural settings, its primary application in this context is along motorways, A-roads, and dual carriageways. It serves a critical practical purpose: offering a clearly defined, sturdy border that is easily maintained and cost-effective for large-scale infrastructure projects.
Timber post and rail fencing is more cost-effective than steel or concrete, making it an attractive option for authorities and developers who want a compliant, durable, and visually appealing solution that meets public infrastructure standards.
For compliant highway boundaries, First Fence offers a full range of materials, including this 1.8m x 150mm x 75mm HCD Incised Timber Post. Built to Highways Specification, it provides the strength and durability required for roadside environments. The 150mm x 75mm section delivers robust structural performance, while the incised treatment allows deeper preservative penetration, protecting the timber from salt, pollution, and moisture. This product has a 30 Year desired service life as per BS 8417 – Incised For Ground Contact.
This 1.8m post is designed for a 1.2m high post and rail fencing run with three horizontal rails. Each of these products is available to purchase, or why not take a look at our handy calculator to work out exactly what you need for your project?
First Fence also offers a 2.1m incised post, with the choice of a standard or pointed end. The 2.1m post is designed for a four-rail, 1.5m high system.
