When installing fence posts, stability and durability are key factors. Postmix is a specially formulated, fast-setting concrete mix designed to provide a strong and secure foundation for fence posts, gate posts, and other structural supports. It eliminates the need for traditional mixing, making it a convenient and time-saving solution for fencing projects.

What Is Postmix?

Postmix is a ready-to-use, pre-mixed concrete that sets rapidly when mixed with water. Typically composed of cement, sand, and additives, it is specifically designed for securing posts in the ground. Unlike conventional concrete, Postmix requires no additional mixing, making it an ideal choice for quick and efficient installations.

Benefits of Using Postmix

• Fast-Setting Formula – Sets quickly, reducing installation time.

• No Mixing Required – Simply pour the dry mix into the post hole and add water.

• High Strength and Durability – Provides a solid and long-lasting foundation for fence posts.

• Weather Resistant – Offers excellent performance in various weather conditions.

• Minimal Effort – Requires less labour compared to traditional concrete mixes.

• Versatile Applications – Suitable for fencing, decking, pergolas, and signposts.

How to Use Postmix for Fence Posts

Using Postmix is a simple and efficient process:

• Prepare the Post Hole – Dig a hole to the required depth and width.

• Position the Post – Place the fence post in the centre of the hole and use a spirit level to ensure proper alignment.

• Add Postmix – Pour the dry Postmix mix evenly around the post.

• Add Water – Pour the recommended amount of water directly onto the mix.

• Allow to Set – Hold the post in place while the mix sets.

• Final Adjustments – Ensure the post remains level while the concrete hardens.

Postmix is an excellent alternative to traditional concrete, offering convenience, speed, and reliability. Whether you're installing a new fence, securing gate posts, or working on other outdoor structures, Postmix ensures a strong and durable foundation with minimal effort.
