The Durapost Fencing Gate and Corner Post is a professional-grade steel solution designed for residential and commercial fencing contractors or DIYers who need a structural foundation for gate hung points or direction changes. It offers superior durability and resistance to rot compared to traditional timber posts, though it requires specific U-channel accessories to securely mount fence panels, as the post itself features a smooth, slot-free surface.

Yes, as long as you use the appropriate Durapost U-channels, you can mount various types of fence panels to this post.
The post comes with a protective finish. Painting is optional for aesthetic reasons but not required for structural longevity.
You will need a drill with high-quality metal drill bits and compatible rust-resistant screws.
Yes, its steel construction makes it significantly stronger than timber, making it an excellent choice for supporting heavy gate loads.
You can cut the steel using an angle grinder with a metal-cutting disc. Remember to sand the edge and apply touch-up paint to prevent rust.
Ensure the hole depth was adequate and the diameter of the concrete footing is sufficient for the height of the fence.
Verify that you are using self-drilling screws rated for steel and that they are properly seated into the thickest part of the post profile.
Installation requires digging a post hole to a depth sufficient for local frost lines and stability, followed by securing with concrete. Ensure the post is perfectly plumb using a spirit level. Since this post does not have integrated slots, install the necessary Durapost U-channels using compatible fasteners directly into the steel. To maintain the post, perform a biannual visual inspection for any paint chips. If the finish is scratched, touch it up immediately with a suitable metal primer or rust-inhibitive outdoor paint to maintain the integrity of the protective coating. Avoid using abrasive steel wool for cleaning to prevent damaging the galvanized finish.
