Everbilt Light Duty Steel U-Posts have tons of applications around the home and farm. Use to protect gardens from deer and other animals, create a temporary pasture, support young trees or display warning signs. The U-Post measures 1-3/10 in. x 1-3/10 in. and has a total length of 5 ft. When the anchor plate is totally buried in the ground, the post has an above ground H of 4 ft. The tightly welded plate also helps to minimize sideways or rotational movement of the post. These fence posts are made of 14-Gauge steel for durability and are powder coated to protect from rust and weathering. The notched design makes it easy to secure fence to the post. No dig installation is made even easier by using the Everbilt Metal Fence Post Driver (Model 901147EB) to pound posts into the ground.
