What length do I need for a fence support post?
First decide on the height of the fence you require. Example below for a 6ft (1.8m) high fence -
You'll need the wooden \ timber support post to be 2ft (.6m) longer then the height of the fence. This is to allow for the post to be fixed into the ground. The length of post required is 8ft (2.4m)
