Steel posted Timber fence

Modern Timber fences have a fatal flaw. The posts are susceptible to rot under the ground. The red-gum posts of the distant past lasted well, up to 45 years. Too many times I have seen fences with years of life left in them falling over due to the posts losing footing. This option is a good one.
Here is a fence that will outlast other timber fences. This fence incorporates 65mmx65mm galvanised tube posts as the supporting structure with welded on brackets to hold the rails.
The other option (below) is Aussie Galvanised steel posts, an option with similar pricing to a timber posted fence but using concrete means the fence will be a lot more stable and stay upright a lot longer.
