How to Install DuraPost® with Wooden Fence Panels
If your going to fence any area,dura posts are obsolete, fence the area with colorbond, never have to paint ,or spray again.
Hello, DuraPosts are not obsolete, in fact they have never been more popular! Especially with recent storms and stronger winds - DuraPost Classic posts can withstand at least 110mph winds! DuraPosts are also powdercoated, giving a 25 year guarantee. Thank you.
@birkdalesales just saying there are far better options for fencing,using any wood for fencing is absolutely obsolete, a fence with full colorbond with proper foundations ,kicks your product to the third division.
With colorbond the whole fence is powder coated.
What I need to see (and what your video, in common with ALL other videos that I have been actually ABLE to find) is the set-up and installation of CORNERS!
Thank you. Here is how to install a corner - ua-cam.com/video/rWNyHJ4JoQ4/v-deo.html Alternatively, you can use a Corner Post, with a U-channel to two or more sides, fixing the U-Channel with 16mm self-tapper metal screws. Hope that helps!
Nice. Rough cost for 7 bays with the planks?
Hi Andy, if you find a Stockist near you, or Installer, they will be able to cost this up for you - www.birkdalesales.com/pages/fencing-stockists Many thanks.
Great video. Do you have a spec for the timber planks been used in this installation? I like the Durapost and timber combo?
Hi, Yes we believe the slats are 100mm x 19mm. All the best with your project!
Looks flimsy, sure it won't rust and corrode? What's it look like after 5 years?
Hi, there have been various tests done to ensure the products will not rust and corrode, feel free to check out our website for more information :).
I can't find anywhere that stocks the new style post caps because I would like to replace my old ones. Please can you provide with more details.
Hi Simon, please can you drop us an email to - durapost@durapost.co.uk :).
@@birkdalesales Thank you. I've emailed now so look forward to finding out more.
What size rails did you use And what distance posts apart
Hi, the rails are likely 100mm x 38mm, however the choice is yours :) The distance between posts is 1.8mtrs.
But, will it rust?
Hi Marion, The DuraPost® galvanised fence posts have a 15 year warranty, obviously dependant on where the post is located. The coloured/powdercoated DuraPost® fence posts have 25 year warranty.
So how long before they rust? Because post Crete traps moisture
Abt a year 😊
I don’t actually know I’m just guessing
Hi, DuraPost® galvanised fence posts have a 15 year warranty, and coloured options, 25 years! :)
This would astonish the Pharoahs!
Part numbers would be handy
Thanks for your feedback. The DuraPost fence posts are designed to have some flex, in order to take pressure from wind. Unique design, and never been more popular! Hope you're well!.
Eh?? You postcrete the second post with the fencing panel and the gravel board already in place?? That's got to be nonsense??
Hello, yes, that is one way to do it. That's the joys of DuraPost fence posts - you can fix/screw your panel in and then go on to the second post! Easy peasy!
I would like to buy but I cannot find this in the USA.
Thank you for your interest. Hopefully we may expand to the USA soon!
Im looking at a half cap in brown but cant find anywhere to get one from
We now have these in stock. You can ask a DuraPost Stockist near you to order these in for you - www.birkdalesales.com/pages/fencing-stockists

Looks great
Your 100w tramsformer blew after about 4 months. And yes, I do have a waterproof external plug socket. And yes, all the connections were tight.
Hello, Apologies about this. Did you get it rectified?
how do you fix/connect U post with H post?
Hello, apologies not to reply sooner. You attached the U-channels to corner/end post with 5x 15mm self-tapper screws.
Spring is in the air!
I followed the instructions in this video to the letter, but as soon as I let go of the post it just falls over.... If only this video covered installing the post in the ground...
Hi, you should post concrete the post in to the ground with FENCEMATE Rapid setting post concrete. It will require mild support for 10 mins or so until it sets. Many thanks.
Does this come with motion detectors?
Hi, unfortunately, no.
Yes i strongly believe this has a huge potential!
Good luck on your company 🥳
What's the best option if my gate is 52mm? Rebate and get a 50mm lock or pack out and get a 70mm one? Thanks
Hello, a 50mm lock and pack it out slightly. Many thanks.
Not available in the US, I checked you look great!
Hopefully soon!
Do you just mix the concrete in the hole or just add water?
Just add water; no mixing required. It should say that on the package.
Correct, just put water in the hole, then tip in the post concrete
Good video
ou can tell the council put that fence up! Why not level it properly?!
It was ‘stepping downhill’
Thank you.
Over the past two years I have concreted into the ground concrete spurs which I have attached wooden posts too. I have about 30 panels in my garden so you can imagine it has been a lot of work. The trouble I have is the fence panels become brittle and winds either damage the panels or my dog jumps up at them and just puts holes in them with just his weight. Having looked around I love the composite panels that you make and was wondering if there was a way I could attach a Durapost to a concrete spur then naturally fit the composite panels in between? Regards Chris
Hi Chris, apologies not to reply sooner! you could possibly use concrete/frame fixings and screw those through the predrilled holes on the DuraPost fence posts, or alternatively and better, concrete the DuraPost post right next to the concrete repair spur. The joys of DuraPost is that you don't require concrete spurs... :)
I don't understand why people erect fences that the wind blows into offering resistance and ultimate collapse. I make all my fences to allow wind to flow through - reducing the strain on the fence. Safer and more cost effective in the long run. And they look great.
I find them too flimsy, customers always comment on how flimsy they are. Stopped using them.
There rubbish trying to fix something that doesn't need fixing
Thank you for your comment. The DuraPost Classic fence post is tested to withstand at least 110mph winds!
@@birkdalesales ok send link in comments to show us all
Ah the perfect ground to dig holes in not a rock or root in sight! Wish all holes were that easy!
for real
Thank you
Shame none of the posts are actually wood-colour.
Thank you for your feedback. The Olive is closest to Green treated timber wood and the Sepia Brown is closest to Brown treated timber.
Any tips to secure a Durapost bolt down to tarmac drive, please
I would cut out the tarmac (using an angle grinder) and then dig a hole for the post, or fill the hole with concrete then use a bolt down afterwards, but a post in the ground is stronger for a fence
Any tips for it to be installed on top of a wall? Bolt down? How high could u go for the bolt down hold?
@@jhtech5807 for a wall id fix with masonry bolts, you want to make sure the fixings go down past the capping of the wall into the block or brick as otherwise its not very strong. Something like 10x150mm masonry bolts are usually right
@@sethburgess8211 there’s no cap top of the wall it’s just a retaining wall ? Block etc . How high a fence would a bolt down hold?
@@jhtech5807 wouldn't want to go over 1.2 metres with bolt downs
What depth do you sink the posts into the ground? What size hole do you recommend. 1ft x 1ft ? Is is difficult enough to find them in Ireland. Also I would require the brackets to fix the posts at the bottom.
Hi, we recommend you sink the posts into the ground 600mm, for 1800mm out of the ground. 1ft x 1ft hole would be fine, although almost too large.
What depth do you sink the posts into the ground? What size hole do you recommend. 1ft x 1ft ?
Hi, recommended depth is 600mm for 1800mm out of the ground. approx 300mm x 300mm would be plenty!
Three baseboards are 1.8m long?
Correct.
How did you secure the posts? Concrete?
yep
Correct
Can i stack 2 base boards?
Hi, Apologies not to reply sooner! for others that might view this, yes, you can stand 2x or more base boards :)
shame the boards aren't patterned on both sides...
They have a varying pattern, so you can either have a mix / match or all same one side / all the same the other side...
More pictures of the product
Hi, feel free to check out our website or socials, there is a range of images on there!
How do you do corners that are greater or less than 90 degrees?
Good question, but without answer for 1 year. 🤦🏻
Hello, Apologies you haven't had a response. We unfortunately don't. The best way to achieve a corner less or greater than 90 degress is to use two posts, or pack out a u-channel to the angle desired. We hope that helps.
Any chance of a short video showing the installation of the Fencemate Cover Strip too? So if you're using the Cover Strips, you don't fix your panels to the posts with Pan Heads?
Apologies not to reply sooner! Please see here - ua-cam.com/video/P04sbmzPY1c/v-deo.html
Can you use an outdoor plug? And is there a remote control?
Hello there, yes you can use an outdoor plug, and no there isn't a remote control, but there is a automatic night / day sensor and timer.
Are these soon to be available at DIY stores ? and what are the overall dimensions ? Main motivation behind the question is i am soon to build a raised patio decking area with wooden sleepers 100mm by 150mm so dimensions would be handy to slot sleepers into the posts.
We have our own stockists, if you head to our website you will be able to find your local stockist by entering in your postcode!
They're erection is your protection.
Just used these on a job… there ok could be a little heavier IMO
Absolutely no consideration given to hedgehogs, frogs etc. Fucking rubbish.
We supply hedgehog holes if customers wish to buy them.
Just replaced 5 x 6ft x 6ft fence panels using durapost, these posts made light work of the job What a fantastic product, would totally recommend 100% a lot easier than using wooden or concrete posts Also looks neater
Hi there, should the 600mm deep hole for the 2400 post be filled to the top with concrete? Or should you allow space for soil on top? Thanks
as I know the most important is to fill 600mm with concrete.
That's correct :)
