The 10ft (3.0m) Concrete Intermediate Fence Post is a heavy-duty, wet-cast fencing post designed for tall fence runs and installations requiring additional post length below ground. Manufactured from steel-reinforced concrete, it provides a strong and durable alternative to traditional timber posts.
This intermediate post features slots on both sides, allowing a fence panel or gravel board to be installed on either side as part of a continuous straight fence run. It is intended for positioning between suitable end, corner or three-way posts.
The 3.0m overall length makes this post suitable for taller fencing arrangements or installations where additional embedment is required. The finished fence height will depend on the depth at which the post is installed and the combination of fence panels and gravel boards used.
Manufactured without a nib, the post provides a clear, continuous slot for compatible fencing components. Its smooth light-grey finish works well with concrete gravel boards, composite gravel boards and a wide range of traditional or decorative fence panels.

Choosing the Correct Post Length
The required post length depends on the intended finished fence height, the height of any gravel board and the amount of post that must be set below ground. A 10ft post is generally selected for tall fencing arrangements or locations requiring additional foundation depth.
Before ordering, calculate the complete installed height of the fence and confirm that the selected panels and gravel boards fit the post slots. Local ground conditions, exposure and the weight of the fencing should also be considered.
Installation
Install the post vertically in a suitably sized hole and support it securely while the foundation material sets. Concrete posts are heavy and should be handled by enough people or with appropriate lifting equipment.
Use suitable post mix or concrete around the base and check that the post remains level in both directions. The required installation depth and foundation size will depend on the finished fence height, soil conditions and local wind exposure.
Allow the foundation to set before installing heavy fence panels or gravel boards. Do not force components into the slots, as this may damage the panel, gravel board or post.
Important Height Information
A 10ft concrete post can be used to construct a fence exceeding common residential boundary height limits. Check applicable planning requirements, property restrictions and boundary agreements before installation.
