DuraPost Fencing System

DuraPost – Stronger, Lighter and Faster

DuraPost is a good solution to the problem of rotting wooden posts without having to use the hefty, unattractive and drab-looking concrete posts. Made from cold-rolled steel, these “H” section posts are very strong yet surprisingly light. This makes them faster and easier to fit, saving you time, energy and money. The new Fencemate DuraPost® complements the beauty of wood with the strength of steel. Creating durable fencing that’s quick and easy to install. Wind tunnel tested to 100mph; these robust posts are perfect for most types of domestic fencing.

DuraPost Versatility

These posts are great for supporting most standard UK-manufactured and continental-pattern fence panels. The pre-drilled “H” section posts are easily adapted for Closeboard and Palisade (picket) fencing. The versatile DuraPost can also be used to erect most other types of fencing.

Composite Gravel Boards

Composite, rot free DuraPost gravel boards are suitable for fitting under fence panels ( 1.83m 6ft long ) and closeboard or palisade (2.44m 8ft long). They are coloured to match the DuraPost. These gravel boards will also fit into standard concrete slotted posts. We recommend fitting a galvanised reinforcing rod into each gravel board to increase its strength and rigidity. The boards can be stacked on one another to make a solid fence panel. Each board has an interlocking ridge and groove, which prevents gaps from opening up between the boards.

Up to 25 years Manufacturers Guarantee

Guaranteed against failure from corrosion for up to 25 years* DuraPost® will not split, warp and rot like wooden posts or chip and crack like concrete posts. All DuraPosts are galvanised with the option of having an extra layer of coloured powder coating for added protection, which blends in well with the colour of our treated timber. To obtain the guarantee, you must register your purchase with the manufacturer within 3 months of the invoice date. (see terms & conditions*) .

Money-saving

Unlike wooden posts, all the framework components are speedily screwed together, utilising Durapost’s predrilled holes. This makes the fencing very strong and secure. Panels cannot be lifted out, so there is no need to buy panel security brackets. For Closeboard and Palisade fences, different size bays and coping with slopes is quick and easy to do with DuraPost. There are no Arris rails to reshape either, saving even more time. DuraPosts are up to 80% lighter than the equivalent concrete posts and up to 50% lighter than an equivalent treated wooden post. This means they are much easier to transport, manhandle and install, saving you time and money all around.
