Where any cuts are made on site, treat all fresh cut ends immediately with a suitable end-grain timber preservative to maintain the Use Class 4 protection at those points. Store posts flat and off the ground on level bearers if not being installed straight away, keeping them clear of standing water and covered to limit moisture uptake before fixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the finished size of a 95mm x 95mm planed fence post?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause this post is planed, the finished size will be slightly smaller than the nominal 95mm x 95mm - typically around 90mm x 90mm after machining.
