This is the connection channel used when a DuraPost fence changes direction or changes application. It is not a fence post.
Use a U-Channel with the DuraPost Corner Post where fencing needs to connect to the square post. It can also be fixed to a suitable wall or existing structure to create the side channel for the fencing.
When do I need a U-Channel?
- At a DuraPost Corner Post where the fence changes direction
- Where the fence changes into a different application or connection
- Where fencing meets a suitable wall or existing structure
- On the fence side of selected gate layouts
Do I need a U-Channel at the end of a normal fence?
No. If the fence simply finishes, continue with the standard Classic post and use the Classic Post End Infill to cover the exposed channel.
