Lifetime Steel Post® Powder Coated Steel Fence Post

Lifetime Steel Posts® are available in Black with Double Powdercoat Finish and Galvanized with Clear Powdercoat Finish.

Out posts require minimal maintenance compared to traditional wood or concrete fence posts. The durability of the steel construction and the protective powdercoat finishes significantly reduce the need for upkeep. To maintain their appearance and functionality, occasional cleaning to remove dirt or debris may be beneficial. Unlike wood, there is no need for painting, staining, or treating to prevent rot, decay, or pest damage. The steel posts are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, ensuring a long-lasting, low-maintenance fencing solution​​​​.

Our posts are highly resistant to weather conditions. Their steel construction and protective powdercoat finishes offer superior resistance against wind, rain, and extreme temperatures.

For optimal support and durability of any gate, we recommend configuring Posts back to back. Secure them together using a 3/16" by 1/2" bolt, choosing either galvanized or stainless steel for long-lasting strength and resistance to corrosion. This setup ensures your gate has the robust foundation it needs for reliable operation.

To ensure optimal stability for your posts, it's advisable to excavate the post hole to a diameter that is three times the width of the post itself. For instance, a 4-inch wide post should be placed in a hole approximately 12 inches in diameter. The depth of the hole should correspond to one-third to one-half of the post's above-ground height. For example, a post supporting a 6-foot-tall fence should be set in a hole with a minimum depth of 2 feet. For setting the post, utilize gravel to establish the correct depth before proceeding to fill the remainder of the hole with concrete for a secure installation.

Installation of Lifetime Steel Posts® is DIY-friendly. However, if the terrain is challenging, the project is complex, or safety is a concern, a professional contractor may be wise - and you can take a seat and relax!
