Uc4 Green Square Wooden Fence Post - Pack Of 4

Uc4 refers to a specific level of wood preservation treatment designed for timber intended for ground contact, offering high resistance to rot and insect attack.

Yes, the posts are supplied in a natural timber color and can be painted or stained with suitable exterior-grade products after installation. Ensure the wood is dry before application.

For a typical 6ft fence panel, it is recommended to set the post approximately 2ft into the ground to ensure stability and longevity.

These posts are designed for ground contact and are suitable for most common soil types. For very wet or poorly draining soil, consider using concrete for installation to enhance stability.

Due to the deep pressure treatment, these posts are designed for an extended service life, significantly longer than untreated timber, but the exact lifespan depends on installation conditions and environmental factors.

The square posts have dimensions of 10cm x 10cm (approximately 4 inches x 4 inches).

Ensure the post hole was dug deep enough and the backfill material (soil or concrete) was compacted sufficiently. Re-assess and add more concrete or compacted soil if necessary.

Check that the post surface is level and that you are using appropriate fixings (screws, nails, or brackets) for the type of fence panel and post material. Ensure the panel is correctly aligned.

This can sometimes occur on the surface of treated timber, especially in damp conditions. It is typically cosmetic and can be brushed off once dry. For persistent issues, consider applying a wood preservative or stain.
