Plan the fence run first

Measure the total fence length, mark corner and end post positions, and note any gates or step-downs. This determines post count, panel or paling quantities and rail lengths.

  • Measure each straight run separately.
  • Mark gate locations and opening widths.
  • Include post caps, plinth boards and fixings in the same order.

Common questions

FAQ

Which fencing material is best for Melbourne?

Colorbond steel suits most Melbourne conditions with low maintenance. Timber needs ongoing treatment. Aluminium resists coastal corrosion. BuildBarn can help match the material to the site and budget.

How many posts do I need for a fence?

Post spacing depends on the fence system, panel width and wind zone. As a rough guide, allow one post every 2.4m for Colorbond and one post every 1.8-2.4m for timber. Confirm with the product specification.

Can fencing materials be delivered?

Yes. Melbourne metro delivery for fencing materials can be checked by postcode, longest length and load size. Long posts and panels may need truck delivery.
