Star Pickets
Star pickets — also known as Y posts or fence droppers — are the go-to steel post for fast, strong fencing. At Daisy's we stock bitumen-coated steel star pickets with sharp pointed ends and pre-punched holes for a quick, hassle-free setup, in sizes from 300 mm right up to 2.4 m. Tougher and longer-lasting than timber, they knock in fast and hold a fence line dead straight.
Star Pickets FAQs
Here are some common questions about our Star Pickets.
Star pickets (Y posts, fence droppers) are steel posts used for fencing — rural, garden, temporary and work-site — as well as marking and plant support. They knock straight into the ground.
Match the length to the job and the height of fence — allow enough length below ground for a firm hold (roughly a third of the picket). For a standard rural fence, 1650-1800 mm is common.
Steel pickets are faster to install, don't rot, and last longer than timber. Bitumen-coated pickets resist corrosion for extra life.
Yes — safety caps cover the sharp top of the picket and are recommended anywhere people or animals could snag on them.
