Items Required for Fence & Trellis Panels

2 November 2023 /Posted bysawmilladmin

1 x post at either end of the panel (if you need 6 panels, you will require 7 posts; for 10 panels, 11 posts)
1 x post cap on each post or decorative finial
Nails or screws to fix it

We recommend using as thick a post as possible to hang the panel. Either a 3”x 3” or a 4” x 3” post is suitable for a 3 to 4 ft high panel. 5ft and 6ft high panels require a 4” x 4” post, especially if it is a windy site.

The length of the post depends on how windy the site is and what type of ground the posts are going in; however as a general rule, each post should be set into the ground by at least 2ft 6in. Also allow for the post to be 2” taller than the panel to give room for the post cap.
