FAQs

What is the warranty on Postsaver Pro-Posts?

How deep should I bury the posts?

Can I paint or stain these posts?

Yes, you can paint or stain the posts if desired, but make sure the surface is clean and dry before applying any treatment.

Are these posts suitable for use with electric fencing?

Yes, these posts are suitable for electric fencing. Ensure you use appropriate insulators and installation methods for electric fence applications.

How do I know if the Postsaver protection is working?

The Postsaver protection is designed to prevent ground-line rot. After installation, the post should remain in good condition for many years. Regular inspection can help to identify any potential issues.

What is UC4 treatment?

UC4 treatment is a pressure treatment process that makes the timber suitable for ground contact and resistant to fungal decay.

Troubleshooting

Fence post appears unstable.

Check the depth and stability of the post installation. Ensure the post is properly secured with concrete or backfill. If needed, re-dig and reset the post with proper support.

Rot appearing above the ground line.

The Postsaver protection is designed for ground-line rot prevention. Address any above-ground issues by inspecting the entire post for physical damage and replacing the post if necessary. Consider treating the affected area with a suitable wood preservative.

Difficulty in driving posts.

Ensure the correct tools and methods are used for power-driving. If resistance is encountered, pre-dig the hole or adjust the installation method to prevent damage to the post and Postsaver protection.
