150mm/175mm x 3.0m Tanalised UC4 Timber Post

Fencing with timber posts and agricultural netting is a reliable way to protect crops, safeguard livestock, and clearly define property lines. It’s a cost-efficient system that’s straightforward to set up and built to last when the right materials are used.

Advantages of Timber Posts with Agricultural Netting

• Strong & Long-Lasting: Solid wooden posts create a firm framework, while high-tensile netting is designed to resist pressure.
• Affordable: A budget-friendly choice compared with metal fencing, without compromising on lifespan.
• Quick to Fit & Maintain: Requires only basic tools and can be adjusted with ease.
• Flexible in Use: Suitable for farming, gardens, and perimeter marking.
• Environmentally Friendly: Timber is a renewable material that requires less energy to produce than steel or concrete alternatives.

Pointed Timber Turner Post

Turner posts are specifically designed for corners or changes of direction within a fence line. They keep the wire under tension while offering the strength needed at stress points where the fence bends.

Crafted from pine, each post measures 3.0m in length with a diameter ranging between 150mm and 175mm (natural variation occurs since they are debarked rather than machine-shaped). These posts are treated to Use Class 4 (UC4) standard, meaning they are pressure-treated for in-ground installation and long-term outdoor exposure, the highest treatment level available for ground-contact timber.

When properly installed, these posts provide a sturdy anchor for fencing systems, preventing sagging or tension loss. They are usually set in place by backfilling with soil, gravel, or stones, though for added stability, concrete post mix can be used. Additional struts or braces may be added where extra support is required.

Why Choose Timber Fence Posts?

Wooden posts remain a popular choice because they are:

• Durable and resilient in outdoor environments.
• Economical, offering great value for large fencing projects.
• Easy to work with and can be cut, drilled, or adjusted on-site using simple tools.
• Individual posts can be swapped out without dismantling the whole fence.

Typical Applications

These posts are highly versatile and can be used in:

• Agricultural fencing for livestock containment.
• Boundary fencing around farms, gardens, or footpaths.
• Security fencing with added wire or netting.
• Landscaping projects, including tree supports and rural property lines.

Because timber is naturally strong and relatively easy to handle, it’s well-suited to both agricultural and non-agricultural installations, especially in remote or rural areas.
