Discover all electric fence posts

Electric fence posts, also known as electric fence stakes or electric fence poles, are essential for your electric fence. Depending on the type of fence and its purpose you can find your electric fence posts here. Whether you're fence is mobile or permanent, you will find your solution with Electric Fence Online.

Types of electric fence posts

There are 4 main types of electric fence stakes: Plastic, wooden, fibreglass and metal posts. Electric fence stakes form the fundamental structure of your electric fence system, so it’s important to make an informed decision.

Plastic Electric Fence Posts

The posts used for mobile electric fencing are constructed of plastic and go by the name of polyposts or plastic electric fence posts. For farmers and ranchers who regularly need to relocate their fence, they are a popular option since they are lightweight, strong, and simple to instal.

Mobile Fence Posts

Mobile electric fencing posts are a cost-effective option that have replaced more traditional types like wood. They can save time and effort because of their built-in insulators. Additionally, fibreglass is often a popular choice for mobile or temporary fence posts. This is due to its flexible and lightweight properties, whilst also retaining affordability. Browse our full range of mobile fence posts. 

Wooden Fence Posts

Wooden electric fencing posts are the most traditional type of electric fence post as many types of wood can be used. However, with this comes a danger of poor quality. At Electric Fence Online, we only stock high quality products that you can trust. Take a look at our range of wooden fence posts.

Metal Fence Posts

Metal electric fencing poles are also an extremely common choice for electric fencing systems because they are strong and long-lasting, whilst remaining relatively affordable. This has established them as a solid option for electric fence posts. Browse our range of metal electric fence posts.

How tall are electric fence posts 

Mobile electric fencing posts range from 50 cm to 180 cm (1.7 feet to 6 feet) in height, while permanent electric fence posts range from 95 cm to 250 cm (3 feet to 8 feet) in height. Depending on the animal you'd like to contain or keep out the height is determined.

These are the most commonly used fence post heights:

What height electric fence posts for horses

For large horses the electric fencing posts should be at least 140 cm (4.6 feet) and for smaller horses and foals this should be at least 120 cm (3.9 feet). This is because the highest point of the electric fence in these cases must be fixed at 135 cm (4.4 feet) and 115 cm (3.8 feet).

How many electric fence posts do I need 

The number of electric fence posts you need for an electric fence depends on the materials to be used and the terrain. When using the following materials, there must be a certain distance between the electric fence posts:

What spacing for electric fence posts

Electric fence posts are placed at a distance of 7 to 40 metres (23-131 feet) apart. The distance depends on the material used, the type of fence and the landscape.

The wires will droop excessively if the distances are too great, which lowers safety. Mobile electric fencing poles also do not bury themselves as deeply. They must therefore be closer together in order to remain robust.

How to install electric fence posts

Mobile electric fence posts can be easily installed because they have a single or double footplate. Permanent electric fence posts often require a hole to be drilled before the electric fence post can be placed. With a post hole digger you can easily create a hole for fence posts and a post rammer to ram the post into the ground.
