Product Information

Full details

The Secure Fix Direct Concrete-In Fence Post Support is designed for homeowners and contractors who need a robust, permanent foundation for timber fence posts on hard surfaces or where ground conditions are unsuitable for drive-in spikes. This system excels at providing long-term stability while preventing timber rot by keeping the wood elevated from the ground, though it requires a concrete pour that makes it less flexible for temporary fencing projects.

FAQs

Can I use these on soft grass?

While technically possible with a large enough concrete foundation, these are specifically optimized for hard standing surfaces and patios.

Does this package come with screws?

No, the wedge grip design holds the post securely using mechanical pressure, so no nails or screws are required.

What size post do I need?

These supports are designed specifically for 100mm (4-inch) square timber posts.

How do I prevent the wood from rotting?

The support keeps the timber elevated above the ground and away from standing water, which is the primary cause of rot.

Can I move these after the concrete sets?

No, these are intended for permanent installation and would require excavating the concrete to relocate them.

How many supports are in a pack?

Each pack contains 10 individual post supports.

Troubleshooting

Post feels loose within the grip

Ensure the wedge grip mechanism is fully tightened; if the wood has shrunk due to drying, add a thin shim to tighten the fit.

Support is tilting after pouring concrete

Use spirit levels and temporary wooden bracing to hold the support perfectly upright while the concrete sets.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Protects timber from rot by preventing direct ground contact
  • Provides a stronger, more permanent hold than drive-in spikes
  • Easy to install on patios, driveways, or hard-standing areas
  • Secure wedge grip eliminates the need for hardware
  • Includes 10 units for larger fencing projects

Cons

  • Requires a permanent concrete pour for installation
  • Cannot be easily relocated once the concrete has set
  • Less suitable for loose or soft soil environments
  • Requires manual effort for mixing and pouring concrete

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Excavate a hole to the required depth in your designated area.
  2. Position the post support, ensuring it is level and plumb.
  3. Pour concrete around the base and allow it to cure fully according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  4. Once cured, insert the timber post into the wedge grip and tighten.

These supports are compatible with standard 100mm (4-inch) square timber posts. For care, occasionally check the bolt tension on the wedge grip if your area experiences high vibrations or extreme seasonal temperature fluctuations that may cause wood shrinkage.
