DuraPost · Newport · South Wales
DuraPost: the post that won't let you down.
DuraPost is a galvanised steel fencing post that replaces traditional timber or concrete. It's designed to resist rot, warping, cracking and leaning, and DuraPost systems come with a manufacturer warranty when installed to specification. We install DuraPost systems across Newport and South Wales.
Why people choose DuraPost
Timber posts rot at the base and concrete posts crack and chip. DuraPost is a galvanised steel post engineered to outlast both, while staying slim and discreet behind the panels. It flexes in high winds rather than snapping, which is exactly what you want on an exposed boundary.
It works with composite and timber infill panels, so you get a rock-solid frame with the look you're after. We finish every job neat, level and squared up, with caps and trims for a tidy edge.

A steel post behind a timber finish
The point of a DuraPost system is that the part doing the work is steel, while the part you look at can still be timber. The posts and gravel board carry the load and sit at ground level where timber normally fails, and the infill boards give you the finish you actually want.
Post depth and foundation size are set to suit the fence height, ground conditions and exposure, and installed in line with the manufacturer’s requirements rather than a single fixed rule.
DuraPost questions, answered
What exactly is DuraPost?
It's a galvanised steel fence post system designed to replace traditional timber or concrete posts. It's slim, strong and designed to resist rot and corrosion, and DuraPost systems come with a manufacturer warranty when installed to specification.
Is DuraPost better than concrete posts?
For most gardens, yes. Concrete posts crack and chip and are heavy to handle; DuraPost is lighter, neater and flexes in high wind rather than snapping, which matters on exposed boundaries.
What panels can I use with DuraPost?
Both composite and timber infill panels fit the system, so you can have a steel-strong frame with whatever look you prefer — modern composite or classic timber.
Is DuraPost more expensive?
It's a little more than timber posts to start with, but it removes the rot-and-replace cycle that timber posts go through, so it works out cost-effective over the years.
