For your traditional post and rail fencing (ideal for rural garden perimeters, farmland, paddocks and menages), we recommend using 3 horizontal rails, nailed to vertical pointed stakes. Allow one stake to every 1.8m of fencing, plus one for the end of the run; and 3 rails for every 3.6m of fencing. The standard size is a 3.6m x 87mm x 38mm rail and a 1.8m x 125mm x 75mm pointed stake. 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 set into the ground by at least 2ft. When fitting fence panels, for a panel less than 4’ high, we recommend a post that is 3” x 3” or x 4” x 3”. A 5ft or 6ft high panel require a 4” x 4” post, especially if it is a windy site.
