Description

Drive-In Post Spike (Bolt Secure, Hot-Dipped Galvanised) provides a fast, no-dig way to install timber fence and gate posts in firm ground. The heavy-duty steel spike is driven into the soil to form a secure foundation, while opposing clamping bolts grip the post above ground for a rigid, twist-resistant hold. The hot-dipped galvanised (HDG) zinc finish delivers long-term corrosion protection and a clean, professional appearance.

Key Features & Benefits

  • No-Dig Installation: Drive straight into firm ground—ideal where excavation would disturb paving, roots or services.
  • Bolt-Secure Clamping: Opposing through-bolts lock the post for a strong, twist-resistant connection.
  • Above-Ground Protection: Keeps end grain out of standing water to help reduce rot risk.
  • Hot-Dipped Galvanised: Thick zinc coating for durable outdoor corrosion resistance.
  • Quick & Accurate: Use with a drive-in tool for rapid alignment and consistent results.

Instructions for Use

  1. Mark the post line. Place the spike and start square to the surface.
  2. Using a compatible drive-in tool and sledge, drive the spike to depth, checking plumb frequently.

Limitations & Precautions

  • For firm ground only; in soft/peaty soils or where high uplift/lateral loads exist, consider concrete-in or bolt-down solutions.
