Buy 3.0M x 75 x 75mm Wooden Fence Post - Pressure Treated Brown at East Coast Fencing
3.0M x 75 x 75mm Wooden Fence Post - Pressure Treated Brown is a versatile square timber post designed for light to medium-duty fencing where extra embedment depth is required. The 75 x 75mm section balances strength with manageable weight, while the extended 3.0m length improves stability on exposed sites, uneven ground or runs that incorporate gravel boards and trellis.
Brown pressure treatment for durability
The post is pressure treated with a brown preservative that penetrates deep into the timber to help resist rot, fungal decay and insect attack. This long-lasting protection suits year-round outdoor exposure with reduced maintenance compared to untreated wood. The warm brown tone blends naturally with other treated components and will mellow attractively as it weathers.
Balanced 75 x 75mm profile
The square section provides dependable rigidity for typical garden applications yet remains lighter than heavier posts for easier handling and installation. Flat faces aid accurate alignment and offer a straightforward fixing surface for panel clips, rail brackets and trellis fixings—useful when you need neat, straight runs across multiple bays.
Advantages of the 3.0m length
The additional length allows for deeper concrete footings, improving resistance to wind loading and ground movement. It also provides flexibility to step fence lines neatly over changes in terrain while maintaining consistent panel and capping heights, especially where a gravel board is included beneath panels.
Typical applications
- Panel fencing: Support for light to medium-duty timber panels, including bays with gravel boards.
- Picket and decorative runs: Create tidy boundaries with consistent post spacing and alignment.
- Trellis and screening: Fix trellis sections or privacy screens above panels to add height.
- Small pedestrian gates: Use as a hanging or slamming post where a 75mm section is appropriate.
Installation guidance
- Set posts plumb and to line using a spirit level and string line for straight, consistent runs.
- Bed in a suitable concrete footing; increase below-ground depth on wind-exposed sites or weaker soils.
- On sloping ground, step posts consistently or maintain a level datum for panels, gravel boards and capping.
- Seal any freshly cut ends, notches or drilled holes with an appropriate end-grain preservative before fixing.
Fixing and compatibility
The flat faces accept panel clips, angle brackets, arris rail supports and trellis fixings with ease. The post integrates neatly with timber or concrete gravel boards, capping rails and post caps for a cohesive boundary. For gate applications, choose hinges and latches rated to the gate’s weight and expected use.
Low-maintenance performance
Routine care is minimal: keep soil and mulch from building up around the base, check fixings periodically (especially after high winds), 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 embedment from the 3.0m length enhances stability against wind loads.
- Mixed-height or stepped runs: Extra length helps manage level changes neatly across bays.
- Gravel-board installations: Provides the depth needed to keep panel tops aligned when a base board is included.
