Buy 1.8M x 100 x 100mm Wooden Fence Post - Pressure Treated Green at East Coast Fencing
1.8M x 100 x 100mm Wooden Fence Post - Pressure Treated Green is a heavy-duty square timber post designed to provide strong, dependable support for garden fencing and small gates. The 100 x 100mm section offers excellent rigidity, while the 1.8m length suits common residential fence heights when set in an appropriate footing.
Green pressure treatment for durability
The post is pressure treated with a green preservative that penetrates deep into the timber to protect against rot, fungal decay and insect attack. This long-lasting treatment equips the post for year-round outdoor exposure and reduces maintenance compared with untreated wood. Over time, the green hue weathers to a softer, natural tone without affecting performance.
Robust 100 x 100mm profile
The substantial square section provides high bending strength and resistance to twisting, making it well suited to exposed sites and sturdier fence designs. The flat faces simplify accurate alignment and offer a reliable fixing surface for rails, panel brackets and hardware.
Versatile 1.8m length
At 1.8m, the post is a practical choice for typical garden boundaries. When set at an appropriate depth in concrete, it supports standard panel heights and closeboard constructions, including builds that incorporate gravel boards and capping for a neat, professional finish.
Typical applications
- Panel fencing: Support for 1.5–1.8m high timber panels with or without gravel boards.
- Closeboard fencing: Fix arris rails, feather edge boards and capping for robust boundaries.
- Pedestrian gates: Use as a gate post for small to medium gates where a 100mm section is appropriate.
- Garden structures: Posts for screening, bin stores and light-duty pergola elements.
Installation guidance
- Set posts plumb and to line using a level and string line for straight runs.
- Bed in concrete; a common guideline is around one-third of the post length below ground, adjusted for site conditions.
- On sloping ground, step posts consistently or maintain a level datum for panels and capping.
- Treat any freshly cut ends, notches or drill holes with a suitable end-grain preservative.
Fixing and compatibility
The square faces accept panel clips, rail brackets and other common fittings with ease. The post is compatible with timber or concrete gravel boards, capping rails, post caps and finials. For gate use, select hinges and latches sized to the gate’s weight and duty cycle.
Low-maintenance performance
Routine care is minimal: periodically check fixings, keep soil or mulch from building up around the base, and clear debris after severe weather. If you wish to adjust colour later, allow the timber to season before applying a compatible exterior wood finish; always re-treat any new cuts beforehand.
