SMALL BUT MIGHTY - T-SHAPED STEEL POSTS FROM JACKSONS FENCING
“ We are proud that Mi-T ® posts are 100 % recyclable , meaning they have an extremely low carbon footprint and environmental impact .
Garden and security fencing manufacturer Jacksons Fencing has responded to industry demand and expanded its range of premium quality products by creating a metal fence post , Mi-T ®. These posts reflect emerging market trends and offer a sustainable alternative to tackle the destructive nature of concrete posts .
At 2.7m long , Mi-T ® posts can be used with Jacksons ’ framed timber fence panels . They ’ re constructed from hot-dip galvanised steel to protect them from rust and corrosion , and can also be powder coated in anthracite grey .
From the front , the post can hardly be seen between panels , creating a seamless fencing run with no posts to interrupt the continuity .
Like their timber posts , Mi-T ® posts also hold a 25-year guarantee .
Nick Bishenden , Senior Marketing Manager , Jacksons Fencing says : “ There is a traditional audience in the UK who remain wary of using timber posts , as they have been bitten by inferior products to ours that rot after only a few years . This audience generally opts for concrete posts .
“ Beyond the manufacturing process , we ensure that the installation of all of our products is as eco-friendly as possible . The new Mi-T ® post is lightweight and easy to handle , so our vehicles can transport more at once , and installation is easier .
The Mi-T ® posts work with several of Jacksons Fencing ’ s framed fence panels , including :
Tongue and Groove , Venetian , Hit and Miss , and Woven .
Peter Jackson , MD Jacksons Fencing says : “ For years we have flown the flag for reliable timber posts . We ’ re very proud to say , they have more than proven themselves , often lasting many more years than our 25-year guarantee .
“ The launch of the Mi-T ® posts will broaden our range , respond to customer demand , and offer a new alternative for those looking for a more sustainable option than concrete .
“ In situ , these posts are subtle , ensuring the overall aesthetic is not deterred away from the attractive natural timber panels they ’ re fixed to .”
