Timber Posts

Whether you're enclosing a garden, securing a boundary, or upgrading your old fence, our timber fence posts will help create a consistent look and feel in your garden.

Timber fences are easy to install but do require cement or post fix. Pouring a specialist post fix or concrete on top of a ballast or gravel that is at least a 5cm or 2 inches to allow for drainage will prevent water damage and ensure your fence post stays level and lasts a long time. As timber fence posts are quite light in comparison to concreate posts, they can be installed by one person.

At Laker, our timber fence posts are pressure treated to prevent insect infestations, fungal decay and rotting. We offer brown, green timber posts, used with fence panels and morticed fence posts to be used with featheredge or closeboard fence boards. Our fence caps give fences a touch of style and offer a professional finish.

FAQs

What size fence post do you need?

The recommendation for choosing the correct fence post for your fence is that the post should be 2 to 4 feet longer than your fence panel, depending how big your fence panel is. This extra length will be mostly buried to offer strong support for your fence panel.

What are morticed fence posts?

Used when constructing Featheredge or Closeboard fences, a morticed fence post has rectangular cavities that allow timber arris rails to be slotted into so the Featheredge or Closeboard boards can be nailed directly onto the arris rails to create the fence.
