Extending the height of your fencing can be done in one of two ways.
The cost effective solution is to use fence post extensions, considering that the concrete fence posts are still in good condition. Simply slide the oversized panels into the existing concrete posts and then slot the post extension inbetween the panels onto the concrete post.
Note - 4ft post extensions are made to order. Please allow additional time for production
*Please note that the post extensions simply sit on top of the concrete fence post. For extra security and stability, simply screw through the back of the post insert into the frame of the fence panel*
A second way of extending the height of the fence would be to replace the concrete posts for ones suitable for the required fence height. This is a very labour intensive and much more costly way to increase the height of a fence.
Intermediate fence post extensions are used on a straight run of fencing, also available are corners, 3 ways and end post extensions.
All of the timber used for post extensions is pressure treated with Tanalith E, prior to manufacture. This provides an effective long term protection against fungal and insect attack, therefore making it ideal for garden fencing.
You could also consider topping off the fence with a trellis panel. They give an aesthetically pleasing finish to your fencing and with them being harder to climb than a standard fence panel they will deter intruders. When topping off a fence with a trellis panel inbetween post extensions, you will require a U-Channel (sold separately) to attach the post extension to the concrete post.
Important: Fence post extensions are designed to be used with the bobble top concrete posts. They can be used with pyramid top concrete posts but will require the inside edge to be tapered.
