Vinyl Fence

Vinyl fencing is the fastest growing fencing market over the last several years. Many consumers like the lower maintenance that man made materials provide. Oz-Post offers two models that are designed for the vinyl fencing industry the P5-850 is designed for posts that are 5” square and the P4-850 are for posts that are 4” square. In both cases it is recommended to drive the Oz-Post completely into the ground or leave a small portion out of the ground to protect the vinyl from weed wackers. Once the Oz-Post has been set you simply apply a good quality adhesive like polyurethane, epoxy, or silicone to the inside of the Oz-Post and slide the vinyl post in. After the glue sets up the fence post will be very solid and long lasting. You can also “dry fit” your vinyl fence with Oz-Post and glue at the end which is helpful for first time builders.

Because there is no digging or concrete required with Oz-Post, it is easy to keep the site and the vinyl fence clean. It is recommended by many vinyl manufacturers that gate posts have an insert, commonly aluminum, to provide additional strength for gate posts. Other manufactures recommend filing the posts with concrete to stiffen the post. Oz-Post recommends that these reinforcement measures also be used when anchoring your posts with Oz-Post. Vinyl is not as rigid as other fencing materials and therefore on gate posts additional reinforcement is usually recommended. Regardless of what is required for reinforcing your gate posts, Oz-Post will provide a sturdy foundation for long term performance.
