FAQs about our fencing supplies
Are aluminium fence posts suitable for coastal areas?
Aluminium fence posts are an excellent choice for coastal areas. They are lightweight, easy to handle and install, and fully powdercoated to make them resistant to rust and corrosion.
How long do Steeline FNW's fence posts last?
The lifespan of our fence posts varies depending on the material. Steel and Aluminium posts, especially when powder-coated, can last decades with proper maintenance.
Are steel fence posts prone to rust?
Our steel fence posts are powder coated to resist rust and corrosion. Colorbond steel posts come with a durable paint finish to ensure long-lasting resistance to rust.
What are the installation requirements for metal fence posts?
Installation requirements can vary depending on the type of metal fence post and the specific project. Generally, concrete will be needed to set the posts in place in the ground for maximum stability. Our team can provide detailed installation guidelines and support to install your fence securely. For areas where in-ground installation is not possible e.g. a concrete path, Steeline FNW also offers fully powder coated Flange Posts in Steel or Aliminium that can be bolted to the ground.
Do metal fence posts require maintenance?
Metal fence posts require minimal maintenance compared to wood posts.
Can I combine steel and aluminium products?
No. When attached, raw aluminium and steel create a chemical reaction that speeds up corrosion. As a matter of standard practice, aluminium and steel are never mixed, so aluminium posts go with aluminium fences, and steel posts go with steel fences.
How do I choose the right type of metal fence post for my project?
Selecting the right metal fence post depends on several factors, including your budget, the environmental conditions of your area, and the specific requirements of your fencing project. Our team can help you assess these factors and recommend the best material.
