The 9ft (2.7m) concrete end fence post is designed to finish the final bay of a fence run. Its 100 x 125mm profile has a single panel slot, leaving the outer face closed instead of showing an unused second slot at the boundary end.
The 9ft end post is the longest single-slot termination post in the range. Its 2.7m length is intended for endings where the fence height, ground level or fixing requirement needs more material than an 8ft post offers. It should be chosen because the final bay needs that extra length, not simply because it is the largest option. Use an end post where the fencing genuinely stops. If another fence line continues away from that point, a corner or 3-way post will usually provide the correct slot arrangement instead.
If the fence is likely to be extended later, consider whether an end post is still the correct component. A future change of direction or additional run may require a different slot configuration.
The 100 x 125mm section gives the end post additional depth while keeping a narrower face than the 125 x 125mm corner and 3-way profiles. The single-slot arrangement is specifically for a true termination point, such as the end of a boundary beside a drive, wall, gate opening or open garden edge. Use compatible fence panels within the run.
At 2.7m overall this is a substantial concrete component. It is wet cast around steel reinforcement, vibration finished to give three smooth sides out of four, and completed with a pyramid-shaped top. The portion below ground does not depend on preservative treatment because concrete does not rot in the way timber can at ground level.
Measure the total run before setting the end post so the final bay lands cleanly at the intended termination point. Keep the single slot facing the last panel and check the visible outside face while the post is still adjustable. The fence post length calculator is useful for size selection, and the chosen cement product should be installed to its stated instructions. A 2.7m concrete post is heavy and awkward to reposition once it is in the hole, so confirm the required depth, slot orientation and finished top level before the setting material is mixed. The concrete fence posts range includes shorter versions of the same post roles. Use 9ft only where the extra overall length has a clear purpose in the fence design, and count each post type from the actual layout rather than estimating from total metres alone.
