Milled from slow-grown, high-density European Redwood (Pinus sylvestris), this heavy-duty rectangular "blank" post features smooth, unnotched faces. It gives you absolute on-site flexibility to mount horizontal rails or structural brackets exactly where your layout demands. Pressure-treated to UC4 ground-contact specifications, it offers maximum resistance against structural rot, wood-boring insects, and wet-earth breakdown.

  • Massive 125x100mm (5" x 4") Cross-Section: Increased structural mass easily withstands high wind-loads, heavy closeboard framing, and large pedestrian gates.

  • Unnotched "Blank" Profile: Free from pre-cut recesses or mortises, making it ideal for continuous bespoke closeboard runs, corner configurations, and custom bracketry.

  • UC4 Tanalith-E Pressure Treatment: Deep-penetrating preservative defense engineered for direct, permanent sub-surface embedding in damp soil or concrete.

  • Slow-Grown European Redwood: Superior grain density drastically minimizes twisting, bowing, and structural checking under extreme seasonal weathering.

  • Collection / Delivery allow 3-5 days

Overview

In high-exposure wind tunnels or when supporting heavy, solid-board wooden fencing, standard square posts can bow under dynamic load forces. Our 125mm x 100mm (5″ x 4″) Blank Redwood Post provides the offset engineering stability required for demanding landscapes. By positioning the wider 125mm face perpendicular to your fence line, the post acts as a rigid structural beam that completely resists the lateral “sail-force” leverage generated by seasonal storms.

Because this is a completely blank, unnotched post, it is highly favored by professional contractors and fencing specialists. You aren’t locked into fixed panel heights or pre-routed positions. Instead, you can comfortably stagger your rails across undulating terrain, frame up uneven boundary corners, or seamlessly mount heavy-duty gate hinges. Its open cell matrix absorbs preservative chemicals deep into the heartwood core, ensuring your structural anchors won’t snap at ground level.

Key Features

  • Directional Stability Upgrades: Rectangular profile provides targeted structural resistance against heavy forward and backward wind pressures.

  • Bespoke Adaptability: The unnotched finish makes it incredibly versatile—easily convert it into a corner post, a robust end post, or a heavy-duty side gate anchor on-site.

  • Anti-Bleed Protection: Advanced industrial treatment processes ensure the anti-rot chemical seal bonds perfectly with the wood fibers, eliminating ugly chemical bleeding.

  • Natural Weathering Hue: The subtle pale-green preservative tint gently matures over time into a silver-grey weathered tone, which readily accepts exterior timber stains or oils.

Technical Specifications

Attribute Specification
Product Type Heavy-Duty Sawn Blank (Unnotched) Fencing Post
Timber Species Premium European Redwood (Pinus sylvestris)
Dimensions 125mm x 100mm (Nominal 5″ x 4″)
Length 2.4 Metres (Nominal 8 feet)
Treatment Grade UC4 (User Class 4) – Formulated for Permanent Ground Contact
Preservative Type Tanalith-E (Or equivalent eco-friendly copper triazole)

Trade Installation & Sizing Tip

Pro Tip: To maximize the high wind-resistance of this rectangular post, always install it with the wider 125mm face pointing down the line of the fence (perpendicular to the panels). This alignment uses the post’s maximum structural depth to fight wind leverage.

Critical End-Grain Rule: To build a stable 1.8m high boundary, set this 2.4m post roughly 600mm deep into a 300mm wide hole filled with rapid-setting Postcrete. If you cut the top of the post to form a weather-shedding slope or point, you must apply an end-grain preservative fluid to the raw wood fibers immediately. Always keep the uncut factory end at the bottom of the hole to protect the base from underground rot.

Precision-milled with pre-cut triangular recesses along the face, this massive structural post is engineered to accept standard triangular arris rails seamlessly without requiring on-site cutting or tedious bracket adjustments. Cut from slow-grown, high-density European Redwood (Pinus sylvestris), this rectangular profile offers a massive upgrade over standard square posts. Pressure-treated to UC4 ground-contact specifications, it provides maximum long-term resistance against wet rot, fungal attack, and structural ground breakdown.

  • Pre-Cut V-Notch Alignment: Features precision-milled triangular recesses that allow standard arris rails to slot directly flush into the post face, creating an incredibly rigid framework.

  • Massive 125x100mm (5" x 4") Cross-Section: Provides targeted directional mass to comfortably withstand high wind-loads and support heavy featheredge boundaries.

  • UC4 Tanalith-E Pressure Treatment: Deep-penetrating chemical defense engineered specifically for permanent, direct sub-surface installation in damp earth or concrete.

  • Premium European Redwood: Superior grain density significantly minimizes twisting, warping, and cracking under intense seasonal weathering compared to cheaper whitewood alternatives.

  • Collection / Delivery allow 3-5 days

Overview

Traditional closeboard fencing relies on a perfectly integrated, interlocking framework to outlast standard budget fence panels. Our 125mm x 100mm V-Notched Redwood Post provides the ultimate structural foundation for this system. By featuring factory-machined triangular notches, the horizontal arris rails slide directly into the core of the timber structure. This inset design transfers dynamic wind forces away from the fixings and directly into the mass of the heavy-duty post.

By positioning the wider 125mm face perpendicular to your fence line, the rectangular geometry acts as a rigid structural beam. This directional layout completely resists the lateral “sail-force” leverage generated by seasonal storms against solid featheredge runs. Because the notches are cut prior to the high-pressure chemical treatment process, the defensive anti-rot barrier completely coats the recessed internal corners, ensuring no raw wood fibers are left exposed to trapped moisture.

Key Features

  • Fast Structural Assembly: Drastically cuts down on-site labor times by removing the need to manually measure, mark, and chisel out rail notches by hand.

  • Directional Stability Upgrades: Rectangular profile ensures maximum resistance against high forward and backward wind pressures.

  • Anti-Bleed Protection: Advanced industrial treatment processes ensure the anti-rot chemical seal bonds tightly with the wood fibers, eliminating ugly chemical bleeding.

  • Natural Weathering Hue: The subtle pale-green preservative tint gently matures over time into a silver-grey weathered tone, which readily accepts exterior timber stains or oils.

Trade Installation & Sizing Tip

Pro Tip: To maximize the high wind-resistance of this rectangular notched post, always install it with the wider 125mm face pointing down the line of the fence (perpendicular to the panels), ensuring the V-notches face outward toward the front of your boundary line.

Critical Sizing & End-Grain Rule: To build a stable 1.8m high closeboard boundary, set this 2.4m post roughly 600mm deep into a 300mm wide hole filled with rapid-setting Postcrete. If you trim the top of the post to form a custom weather slope, you must apply an end-grain preservative fluid to the raw wood fibers immediately. Always keep the uncut factory end at the bottom of the hole to protect the base from underground rot.
