Buy 3.0M x 100 x 100mm Wooden Fence Post - Pressure Treated Green at East Coast Fencing
3.0M x 100 x 100mm Wooden Fence Post - Pressure Treated Green is a heavy-duty square timber post designed for taller or more demanding fencing and gate installations. The substantial 100 x 100mm section provides excellent rigidity, while the extended 3.0m length allows deeper embedment for stability on exposed sites, uneven ground or runs incorporating gravel boards and trellis.
Green pressure treatment for durability
The post is pressure treated with a green preservative that penetrates deep into the timber to help resist rot, fungal decay and insect attack. This treatment supports year-round outdoor performance with reduced maintenance compared to untreated wood. As the timber seasons, the green hue weathers to a softer, natural tone without diminishing protection.
Robust 100 x 100mm profile
A 100 x 100mm (4" x 4") section offers high bending strength and resistance to twisting, making it well suited to taller panels, closeboard systems and gateways. The square faces simplify alignment and provide a generous fixing surface for rails, brackets and ironmongery, helping you achieve straight, professional fence lines across long runs.
Advantages of the 3.0m length
The extra length accommodates deeper concrete footings for improved pull-out resistance and overall stability—particularly valuable on wind-prone plots, soft ground or where designs add leverage (e.g., trellis toppers). It also provides flexibility to step fence lines neatly over changes in terrain while maintaining consistent top levels.
Typical applications
- Closeboard fencing: A sturdy backbone for arris rails, feather edge boards and capping on taller boundaries.
- Panel fencing: Supports heavier panels and bays with gravel boards or trellis additions.
- Gate posts: Suitable as hanging or slamming posts for small to medium timber gates; choose hardware rated for duty.
- Garden structures: Framework for robust screens, bin stores and light pergola elements where extra rigidity is required.
Installation guidance
- Set posts plumb and to a string line for accurate alignment; check levels frequently along the run.
- Bed in a suitable concrete footing; increase below-ground depth on exposed sites or weaker soils.
- On sloping ground, step post heights consistently or maintain a level datum for rails, gravel boards and capping.
- Treat any freshly cut ends, notches or drilled holes with an appropriate end-grain preservative before fixing.
Fixing and compatibility
The flat, square faces accept panel clips, rail brackets, arris rail supports and through-bolts with ease. For gates, specify hinges, latches and fixings suited to the gate’s weight and frequency of use. The post integrates neatly with timber or concrete gravel boards, capping rails and post caps for a cohesive, weather-resilient boundary.
Low-maintenance performance
Ongoing care is straightforward: periodically check fixings (particularly after high winds), keep soil and mulch from building up around the base, and clear debris to maintain airflow. If you plan to apply a decorative finish later, allow the timber to season first and always re-treat any new cuts beforehand.
Where this post excels
- Exposed locations: Deeper setting and a robust section help manage wind loading.
- Heavier fence designs: Extra stiffness supports panels with gravel boards and trellis toppers.
- Long, straight runs: Square geometry simplifies accurate alignment bay after bay.
