Product Information

Full details

The Woven Wood 2.43M Fence Post is an ideal choice for homeowners and professional landscapers looking to install hazel or willow hurdles, garden screening, or natural garden borders. These posts offer a blend of rustic charm and structural reliability, featuring a pressure-treated finish that significantly extends their lifespan against environmental decay. While these posts are highly durable and easy to install due to their pointed ends, users should be aware that, as with any natural wood product, they may require periodic maintenance or re-treatment over many years to maintain their integrity in extreme soil conditions.

FAQs

Can these posts be cut to a shorter length?

Yes, they can be cut using a standard hand saw or circular saw. Note that any cut surface should be treated with a wood preservative to maintain decay resistance.

Do I need to cement these into the ground?

For most decorative screening and lightweight fencing, driving them firmly into the ground is sufficient. Concrete can be used for added stability if you live in an area with very loose, sandy soil.

How deep should I bury the posts?

A general rule is to bury at least one-third of the post's total length for maximum stability.

Are these posts suitable for damp or boggy soil?

They are pressure-treated for durability, but in consistently waterlogged soil, their lifespan may be reduced compared to dry, well-draining soil.

Can I paint or stain these posts?

Yes, ensure the wood is thoroughly dry, then apply an exterior-grade wood stain or paint compatible with pressure-treated timber.

Troubleshooting

Post is not going straight into the ground

Check if there is a large rock or root obstruction. Remove the post, clear the obstacle, and try a slightly adjusted position.

Post top is splintering while driving

Use a wooden block between the mallet/rammer and the post head to distribute impact force more evenly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Pressure-treated for enhanced durability against the elements
  • Pointed end significantly speeds up the installation process
  • Natural aesthetic complements organic fencing like hazel and willow
  • Multi-purpose utility for both fencing and garden landscaping

Cons

  • Natural wood may shift or crack slightly over time due to weather cycles
  • Requires manual driving or post-hole digging depending on soil density
  • Limited to specific types of lightweight or decorative fencing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, clear your path and use a string line to ensure your fence is perfectly straight. Using a heavy mallet or a post-rammer, drive the pointed end into the soil. For harder ground, a post-hole digger is recommended to start a pilot hole to prevent splitting the top of the post during the driving process.

Compatibility:

| Application | Suitability |

| :--- | :--- |

| Hazel Hurdles | Excellent |

| Willow Fencing | Excellent |

| Decorative Screening | Excellent |

| Heavy Security Fencing | Not Recommended |

Care instructions:

  • Inspection: Check the base of the posts annually for signs of excessive moisture accumulation.
  • Treatment: While pressure-treated, applying an additional wood preservative to the ground-contact area before installation can provide an extra layer of protection.
  • Cleaning: Simply rinse with a hose to remove mud or debris buildup.
