5% Off Treated Posts 150x150 and 200x200 Pyramid Top Prices and Benefits 20 to 27 Sept

If you’ve got a fencing, gate, driveway, garden boundary, or landscaping job coming up, this is a good week to sort the heavy posts before they sit on the “I’ll get to it later” list.


From Sunday 20th September until Sunday 27th September, selected treated timber posts are available with 5% off. The offer covers three strong, practical post options:


  • 150 x 150 3.0m treated posts

  • 150 x 150 2.4m treated pyramid top posts

  • 200 x 200 2.4m treated pyramid top posts


That 5% saving might sound small at first, but on proper structural timber, especially if you’re buying several posts for a run of fencing or a pair of gates, it can make a useful difference. Even better, these are sizes that work hard. They’re not flimsy garden stakes. They’re chunky, treated posts made for serious outdoor use.

Selected treated posts are included in the 5% discount from 20 to 27 September.

The 5% treated post offer at a glance


Here’s the simple version. The offer runs for one week only, from Sunday 20th to Sunday 27th September, and applies to the selected treated posts listed below.


Because timber prices can change with stock, treatment, and live availability, the safest way to show the offer is to apply the discount directly to the current marked price. The deal takes 5% off the usual price, so you pay 95% of the original price.

So, if you’re pricing up several posts, just multiply the normal price by 0.95 to get the discounted figure.


This week’s Gate posts on offer 150 x 150 and 200 x 200 are especially useful if you’re building something that needs more support than a standard fence line. For fencing jobs, the Fence posts on offer 150 x 150 and 200 x 200 are also a strong choice where you want extra rigidity, better visual weight, and a more solid finish.


Why choose treated timber posts


Outdoor timber has a tough job. It sits in changing weather, deals with wet ground, carries panels or gates, and has to stay as straight and stable as possible over time. That’s why treatment matters.


Treated posts are made to handle outdoor use better than untreated timber. The treatment helps protect the wood against decay and insect attack, which is especially important when the post is set into the ground or fixed close to damp surfaces.


A treated post is a smart pick for:


  • Garden fencing

  • Driveway gates

  • Side gates

  • Boundary work

  • Pergolas and garden structures

  • Privacy screens

  • Raised landscaping features

  • Decorative entrances


The other big benefit is confidence. When you use a properly sized treated post, the finished job feels better straight away. Panels line up neatly. Gates hang more securely. Larger structures feel less wobbly. It’s the sort of thing you notice every time you open a gate or walk past the fence.


The 150 x 150 3.0m treated post is the tall, flexible option


The 150 x 150 3.0m treated post is the one to look at when you need height, depth in the ground, or both.


At 3.0m long, it gives you extra room to play with compared with a shorter post. That can be handy if the ground level changes, if you’re setting the post deep, or if the finished fence or gate structure needs a taller final height.


This size is a good fit for heavier domestic fencing and gate setups where a standard smaller post doesn’t feel quite enough. The 150 x 150 section gives the post a solid, square profile without going as large as a 200 x 200. In simple terms, it looks strong and feels strong, while still being manageable for many garden and fencing projects.


Best uses for the 150 x 150 3.0m treated post


This post makes sense for jobs like:


  • Taller where extra post length helps with setting depth

  • Gate hanging where a chunky section is needed

  • Driveway or side access points

  • Garden entrances

  • Structural support for screens or partitions

  • Projects where the post may need trimming to final height

  • Pergolas or other garden builds


That extra length can save a lot of stress on site. If you’re working on uneven ground, the longer post gives you more margin. You can set it properly, line it up, then trim if needed.


Benefits of this post


The main benefit is flexibility. You’re not locked into a short length, and that makes it useful for jobs where measurements aren’t perfectly simple.


It also gives a good balance between strength and appearance. A 150 x 150 post has enough visual weight for a premium-looking fence or gate, but it doesn’t dominate the whole garden.


Pick this one if you want a treated post that can handle a wide range of outdoor builds, especially where height or fixing depth matters.

The 150 x 150 2.4m pyramid top post looks smart and stays practical


The 150 x 150 2.4m treated pyramid top post is a great choice when you want the strength of a chunky square timber post with a cleaner finished look.


The pyramid top does two helpful things. It gives the post a more decorative finish, and it helps water run off the top rather than sitting flat. That’s a simple detail, but it matters outside. Water sitting on flat timber tops is never ideal, so a shaped top is a practical upgrade as well as a visual one.


At 2.4m long, this post suits many common fencing and garden boundary jobs. It’s especially useful where the finished height doesn’t call for a longer 3.0m post.


Best uses for the 150 x 150 2.4m pyramid top post


This option is well suited to:


  • Garden fences with a neat finished look

  • Decorative boundary posts

  • Side gates

  • Front garden entrances

  • Courtyard and patio fencing

  • Shorter privacy screens

  • Projects where the top of the post will stay visible


If the post tops will be seen, choosing pyramid top posts can make the finished run look much more thought through. It’s a small detail, but it stops the job looking unfinished.


Benefits of this post


The big benefit here is the mix of strength and appearance.


The 150 x 150 section gives more substance than slim posts, which helps the overall fence or gate feel sturdy. The pyramid top gives a neater finish without needing separate caps.


That can also save time. Instead of fitting caps afterwards, the top is already shaped. If you’re installing multiple posts, that makes the job simpler and keeps the look consistent from one post to the next.


This is the post to choose if you want something strong, tidy, and suitable for visible garden features.


The 200 x 200 2.4m pyramid top post is the heavyweight option


The 200 x 200 2.4m treated pyramid top post is the big one in this offer.


A 200 x 200 post has a much heavier presence than a 150 x 150. You’d choose it when the post is meant to be a main feature, or when the job needs serious strength and visual impact.


It’s a popular style for larger gates, entrance posts, statement fencing, and garden structures that need to look solid from the start. If you’re building something that would make a smaller post look underpowered, this is the one to look at.


The pyramid top adds the same benefit as the 150 x 150 pyramid version. It looks finished, and it helps shed rainwater away from the top surface.

Best uses for the 200 x 200 2.4m pyramid top post


This post is a good match for:


  • Driveway gate posts

  • Large side gates

  • Feature entrances

  • Heavy boundary fencing

  • Decorative entranceways

  • Statement garden structures

  • Projects where the post itself is part of the design


If you’re hanging a gate, the post does a lot of work. It has to take the weight, hold the hinges, and stay as stable as possible. Bigger gates usually need stronger support, so stepping up to a 200 x 200 post can make sense.


Benefits of this post


The biggest benefit is strength with presence.


A 200 x 200 post doesn’t disappear into the background. It gives the job a proper framed look. On a driveway entrance, for example, that can make the whole setup feel more substantial.


It’s also a good match for wider spaces. If you use smaller posts on a large entrance, the proportions can look a bit off. A 200 x 200 pyramid top post holds its own visually and helps the finished job feel balanced.


Choose this one when you want the post to be noticed, or when the build needs real support.


Which treated post should you choose


The easiest way to choose is to think about the job the post needs to do.


If you need height or extra setting depth, go for the 150 x 150 3.0m treated post. It gives you more length to work with and suits jobs where the final ground level or post depth needs flexibility.


If you want a neat visible finish for a fence, garden boundary, or smaller gate, the 150 x 150 2.4m pyramid top post is a smart all-rounder. It’s strong, tidy, and already finished at the top.


If you’re building a bigger entrance or want a heavier feature post, the 200 x 200 2.4m pyramid top post is the one with the most visual weight. It’s the best choice when the post needs to look and feel substantial.


Here’s a quick guide:

A few tips before you buy


Before ordering, it’s worth checking three things.


Measure the finished height you want. Then allow enough length for the post to be set securely. The exact depth depends on the job, ground conditions, and load, but it’s always better to plan this before you cut anything.


Think about what the post will carry. A decorative boundary post has a different job from a gate post carrying hinges and regular movement. If the gate is heavy, don’t undersize the post.


Match the post size to the look of the project. A thicker post can make a fence or gate look more premium, but it should still suit the scale of the space.


Also, if the post will be cut on site, remember that any cut ends need suitable end grain treatment. This helps protect the exposed timber and keeps the post in better condition outdoors.

Make the most of the 5% offer


This offer is a nice chance to buy the sturdier posts while the price is reduced. The saving applies from Sunday 20th until Sunday 27th September, so it’s a short window rather than an open-ended deal.


If you already know you’ll need posts soon, it makes sense to get them while the discount is live. That’s especially true if you’re buying more than one. A pair of gate posts, a run of fence posts, or several feature posts can all add up, and 5% off every post keeps a bit more in your pocket.

The simple takeaway


The 5% treated post offer gives you a saving on three useful, heavy-duty outdoor post options.


Choose the 150 x 150 3.0m treated post when you need extra length and flexibility. Go for the 150 x 150 2.4m pyramid top post when you want a strong, tidy post for visible fencing or garden boundaries. Pick the 200 x 200 2.4m pyramid top post when the job needs more strength, more presence, or a proper feature entrance.


The offer runs from Sunday 20th to Sunday 27th September, so if those posts are already on your materials list, this is the week to sort them.
