Forest Galvanised Bolt Grip Fence Post Support with Spike
The Forest Galvanised Bolt Grip Fence Post Support with Spike provides a fast, secure, and convenient way to install timber fence posts without the need for digging post holes or using concrete. Part of the reliable Forest Easy-Fit Fencefast range, these heavy-duty post supports are designed to save both time and labour while creating a strong foundation for fencing, gates, and other outdoor timber structures.
Suitable for use in normal soil conditions, the deep steel spike is driven directly into the ground before the timber post is firmly secured using a robust twin bolt fixing system. The durable galvanised finish offers excellent resistance to rust and corrosion while providing a clean silver appearance that suits a wide range of fencing installations.
Quick and Easy Fence Installation
Installing fence posts is quicker and cleaner with the Forest Bolt Grip Post Support. Instead of excavating holes and waiting for concrete to cure, the ground spike is simply driven into the soil using a sledgehammer, allowing the post to be securely fixed in place almost immediately.
For the easiest installation, Forest recommends using the DD02EF Fencefast Driving Tool, which helps protect the spike while driving it into the ground and ensures a more controlled installation.
These versatile supports are also suitable for securing pergolas, trellises, garden screens, arches, and many other outdoor timber structures.
