Product Information
Full details
The Taskar Fence Arris Rail Bracket is designed for fencing contractors and DIY homeowners who need a reliable, structural connection for feather edge fencing. These 300mm brackets provide a secure method for fixing arris rails to fence posts, ensuring long-term stability and rigidity; however, users should ensure their posts are properly aligned for concrete mounting, as the rigid steel construction offers little room for adjustment once fixed.

FAQs
Can these brackets be used on timber posts?
While designed primarily for concrete, they can be used on timber posts if you use appropriate heavy-duty timber coach screws rather than masonry anchors.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will need a masonry drill, the correct sized drill bit for your anchors, a drill/driver, and a socket set or wrench to tighten the fasteners.
Are the mounting screws included in the pack?
No, the pack includes the 10 brackets only. You will need to purchase concrete masonry bolts and wood screws separately based on your specific post type.
Will these rust if used near the coast?
The galvanised finish offers high resistance to rust, but in high-salt coastal environments, it is recommended to monitor them for oxidation and apply a protective metal primer if necessary.
How many brackets do I need per rail?
Typically, two brackets are required per arris rail—one at each end—to ensure a secure, stable connection to the fence posts.
Troubleshooting
Bracket feels loose against the concrete post.
Check that the masonry anchor used is the correct size and fully expanded within the hole. Consider using a larger diameter sleeve anchor if the concrete has crumbled.
Arris rail splitting during screw installation.
Ensure you drill a pilot hole into the timber rail before driving the screws to prevent the wood from fracturing.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable galvanised finish protects against weathering
- Pre-drilled holes ensure consistent and rapid installation
- Specifically designed for standard arris rail fencing systems
- Sturdy construction supports heavy fence loads
Cons
- Requires specific masonry fasteners for concrete installation
- Rigid metal design does not allow for adjustment post-installation
- Limited to 300mm rail configurations
Setup, Compatibility & Care
For installation, ensure you have a masonry drill bit of the correct diameter to match your chosen concrete anchors. Position the bracket so the rail sits flush against the post, then fix the bracket to the concrete post first. Use weather-resistant wood screws to attach the arris rail to the bracket face. For long-term care, periodic inspections should be performed once a year to ensure that the masonry fasteners have not loosened due to vibration or wind pressure. If you notice any signs of surface rust, applying a cold-galvanizing spray or exterior metal paint can help maintain the integrity of the protective coating.
