Cedar Slat Fence Post KIT ™
(1 post)
Available in 6ft surface mount posts, or 8ft inground posts.
This post kit (1 post) comes with everything you need to construct your Cedar Slat Fence, except the 1” x 6″ x 6′ cedar boards. You’ll need 12 cedar boards, per 6’ fence section. BOARDS SOLD SEPARATELY. Fits boards 0.75″ thick or less. (1″x6″ boards are actually 0.75″ thick). The fit is tight, but it’s easy to tap in for soft woods like Cedar, Pine or Redwood.
NOTE: You’re not restricted to 6 ft wide fence sections, you can go up to 8 ft wide, but recommend 6ft for added strength.
Includes
- Aluminum universal slotted post, black
- Aluminum press on post cap
- Aluminum base plate (for 6ft surface mount posts only)
- Post channel covers (for universal post configuration)
- Top/Bottom L-brackets (fit inside post channel)
- Concrete anchor bolts (for 6ft surface mount posts only)
- Board spacers, ½” (22 per 6’ x 6’ section)
Recommended Boards
Cedar boards are the most common, and cost roughly $27 per 1″x6″x6′ board. If you’re on a budget you can go with a premium pine board for around $14 per board.
NOTE: You might find that 6ft lengths aren’t available and will have to purchase 8ft long boards and cut to size which will increase the price a bit.
How Many Boards Do I Need?
You need 11, 6″ wide boards. This leaves extra room on the bottom so the bottom board doesn’t touch the ground. This leaves a few inches of post above the boards on the top.
You want to stay with 6″ wide boards (actual size is 5.5″) because the number of spacers we provide are designed for 6″ boards. If you want to go with 4″ wide boards, let us know so we can add more spacers to your order (fees apply).
Line Post Description
The post and cap are made from high durable aluminum, powder coated black, unaffected by UV rays, high humidity, as well as temperature fluctuations. This line post is compatible with soft wood fence boards of up to 0.75″ thickness. Features 3 channel grooves so the fence can be made into a straight line or in a 90 degree corner.
Includes channel covers to hide the post channel grooves that aren’t being used.
BOARDS NOT INCLUDED.
Cedar boards are available at Home Depot, Lowes, and most building supply stores. We recommend pre-cut cedar boards, 1” x 6” x 6’). Cost varies depending on where you purchase, but these boards are relatively inexpensive, cost between $14 – $22 per board.
NOTE: Generally, places like Home Depot and Lowes offer free board cutting
