Wood vs Concrete vs Steel: Ultimate guide to fence posts

Installation

Due to the sheer weight of concrete fence posts, installation takes a great deal of time and effort. This usually requires an extra pair of hands or two to ensure a safe and efficient job is complete. So, if speed’s an important factor for you, concrete fence posts probably aren’t for you.

Compare this to a wooden fence post system, and you’ll find a slight decrease in time-to-install. Why? Wood is somewhat lighter than concrete, meaning less effort is required to install a fence using wooden posts. Although slightly quicker to install, wooden fence posts still require two people for maximum efficiency.

So how does DuraPost compare?

When it comes to installation, a fence posts system made from galvanised steel blows both concrete and wooden fence posts out of the water. How? DuraPost, is 80% lighter than concrete. This makes the entire installation process efficient with just 1 person, reducing the time-to-install.

Aside from the installation speed, the compact design of DuraPost combines the ease of installation with security. Due to DuraPost’s innovative design, the fence panels cannot be lifted once installation is complete, giving you maximum security from your fence.
