2050mm Base Plate Gate Post – Ideal for Concrete & Hard Ground Installation

All Nova Fence panels can be cut down to specific lengths when installing.  Simply turn your panel over, mark out the required length on the top and bottom rails and cut with a circular saw or grinder. 

While any Nova Fence post can be used, the difference will be mainly visual.  We suggest using 50 x 100mm posts (50mm side facing forward) to (1) blend your posts into the fence line (2) allow the battens to finish flush with the front of the posts and (3) match the 50 x 100 frames on the sides of our batten gates.  For corner returns, we suggest a 100 x 100mm post or 65 x 65mm placed behind the fence line and joined with angle brackets.

nova Fence panels can be mounted using our standard brackets or angle brackets (sold separately).  Standard brackets sleeve over the rail and mount to the side of the post.  Our angle brackets can be used to run your panels over the front of the post. 

Absolutely - all Nova Fence panels come with aluminium powder-coated caps included in the panel price.

What if I'm on a sloping block?

Not every block is flat.  Our panels can be stepped down in height, cut on a rake under the bottom rail to the slope of the land, or a combination of both.  Here is an example of where Nova Fence panels have been cut on a rake to follow a 150mm change in level over of the length of a panel, with the next post stepped at an equal height.
