Why choose chestnut

Natural appearance, durable heartwood.

Heartwood, the inner part of chestnut timber, has natural resistance to decay. This is useful in outdoor posts; the life of each post varies with its composition and conditions of use.

Removing the bark leaves knots and the shape of the timber visible. The post keeps its natural form, and its diameter can vary along its length.

Pointed or unpointed

A pointed end makes it easier to drive a post into the ground. Unpointed posts suit horizontal elements or fixings that do not need a pointed end.
