TIMco

Drive-In Post Spike (Bolt Secure, Oxide Red) provides a fast, no-dig way to install timber fence and gate posts in firm ground. The heavy-duty steel spike is driven into the soil to form a secure foundation, while opposed clamping bolts grip the post above ground for a rigid, twist-resistant hold. The oxide red coating offers corrosion resistance and a clean, professional finish.. Key Features & Benefits. No-Dig Installation: Drive straight into firm ground—ideal where excavation would disturb paving, roots or services.. Bolt-Secure Clamping: Opposing through-bolts lock the post for a strong, twist-resistant connection.. Above-Ground Protection: Keeps end grain out of standing water to help reduce rot risk.. Durable Finish: Oxide red coating for outdoor corrosion resistance and tidy appearance.. Quick & Accurate: Use with a drive-in tool for rapid alignment and consistent results.. Available Sizes.

Applications: Fencing, light gates, pergolas, signage and garden structures. Instructions for Use. Mark the post line. Place the spike and start square to the surface.. Using a compatible drive-in tool and sledge, drive the spike to depth, checking plumb frequently.. Insert the post fully into the shoe; plumb and square it, then tighten clamping bolts evenly.. Re-check alignment after initial settling; retighten during routine inspections.. Limitations & Precautions. For firm ground only; in soft/peaty soils or where high uplift/lateral loads exist, consider concrete-in or bolt-down solutions.. Do not strike the shoe directly—always use a drive-in cap or tool to prevent damage.. Cut post ends square and treat end grain with preservative before clamping.. A robust, no-dig fixing that speeds up fence and frame installs—drive in, clamp tight and protect the post end above ground for a long-lasting, professional result.
