Wooden Gates For Bucks, Berks, Herts & Oxon
Secure your next structural timber project while protecting your budget with our Special Offer Bulk Buy: 5-Pack Heavy-Duty Concrete-In U-Post Support Brackets. Specifically manufactured for fencing contractors, landscape developers, and serious DIYers, this trade-pack bundle provides ultimate structural anchoring for five timber posts. It is the perfect choice for high-load installations like closeboard fencing, heavy pergolas, timber carports, and decking frameworks.
Each bracket features a heavy-gauge steel U-shaped shoe welded to a ribbed concrete-reinforcing rebar stem. Designed to be set directly into wet concrete mix, these anchors create a permanent, rock-solid ground connection. The entire assembly is hot-dip galvanized to form an impenetrable barrier against moisture, preventing your timber posts from rotting in the soil and ensuring your structures stand straight against harsh weather.
Instant Multi-Pack Savings: Buy in bulk to significantly lower your cost-per-post compared to buying individual brackets.
Permanent Concrete Anchoring: The ribbed rebar stem creates a high-friction mechanical bond with concrete, completely eliminating post wobble or lifting.
Moisture Protection Gap: Elevates your wooden posts cleanly above ground level, stopping groundwater absorption and preventing base rot.
Industrial Hot-Dip Galvanizing: Weatherproofed to industrial standards, preventing rust even when installed in highly corrosive soils or high-salinity coastal areas.
Price range: £30.80 through £32.60 + VAT
The most common point of failure for any fence line, pergola, or structural timber frame is at the ground level, where moisture rotting can destroy a 100mm wood post in just a few seasons. This Bulk Buy 5-Pack of Concrete-In U-Post Supports solves this issue by separating the wood from the wet earth. By setting the heavy-gauge steel stem into a concrete foundation pad, the load of your structure is transferred directly into the ground through clean engineering steel.
These brackets are built to handle the physical leverage forces caused by high winds hitting solid-clad fence panels. The pre-punched holes in the U-shoe provide clean alignment points for heavy-duty coach screws or timber bolts, pulling the wooden post into a tight, rigid fit that won’t loosen or sway over time.

Pro Tip: When setting multiple concrete-in post brackets along a run—like a new fence line or a 4-post pergola—getting all five brackets perfectly level and aligned before the concrete cures can be stressful.
The Trade Method: Do not try to level each bracket individually in its separate hole. Instead, build a simple, straight timber dummy rail out of cheap scrap wood. Clamp all 5 of your U-post brackets into the dummy rail at your exact spacing distances (e.g., 1.8-meter centers for fencing). Prop up and level the entire dummy rail assembly across your dug holes using stakes. Once the rail is level and in line, pour your concrete into all five holes around the stems at the same time. This keeps everything in place, preventing brackets from twisting or sinking as the concrete cures. Leave the dummy rail clamped on until the concrete hardens!
