Why do we use steel posts on wood fences? Let’s dive in with our residential fencing manager, Kurtis Kremski, and Colin Duchinski, our wood fencing expert at Wallace + Wallace.
The biggest reason wood fences fail is due to rotten posts. By replacing them with steel posts, you eliminate this issue, ensuring the fence lasts a lifetime. A stronger post means a stronger fence, free from problems like rot, insect damage, and weed whackers. The installation process is clean and easy — no mud to haul away and no heavy equipment on your grass. The only thing we leave behind is a beautiful new fence.
