Wildlife Fencing

Wildlife Fencing Steel Supply

Galvanised steel posts, rails and structural sections for fauna exclusion, koala and roadside wildlife fencing — supplied to fencing contractors, environmental consultants and government infrastructure projects nationwide.

Specification & Supply

Wildlife exclusion fencing protects native fauna and reduces roadside vehicle strikes. We supply the structural steel that goes into these systems — galvanised CHS line posts, heavy strainer assemblies, top rails, overhang sections and mesh framing — cut to length to engineer's specification and palletised ready for remote site delivery. Mill direct supply available on full pack and project quantities, subject to availability and lead time. Trade pricing applies to bulk and contractor orders.

  • Heavy strainer and corner assemblies with brace stays
  • Top rails, overhang arms and apron support steel
  • Hot-dip galvanised to AS/NZS 4680 for long-life exposure
  • Cut to length to engineer's specification
  • Project-based supply for government and infrastructure programs
  • Mill direct on large exclusion fencing programs
  • Australia-wide delivery to remote and regional sites

Frequently Asked Questions

What steel posts are used for koala fencing?+

Koala-rated fencing typically uses smooth-finish galvanised CHS posts (65NB–89NB) with an angled overhang to prevent climbing. Smooth galvanised surfaces are specified to minimise grip — we supply hot-dip galvanised CHS cut to engineer's detail.

Do you supply for roadside wildlife exclusion projects?+

Yes. We supply galvanised CHS line posts, heavy strainers, overhang sections and apron steel for state road authority and DOT roadside fauna exclusion programs — bulk project quantities, palletised for remote delivery.

Can you cut and pre-fabricate strainer assemblies?+

Yes — strainer and corner assemblies can be supplied as cut packs or welded sub-assemblies (HDG after fabrication). Custom lengths and project-specific bundling are available on request.

Is your steel suitable for conservation and environmental fencing?+

Yes. Hot-dip galvanised steel to AS/NZS 4680 provides decades of ground-contact corrosion protection — the standard specification for cluster fencing, conservation reserves and environmental exclusion projects.

What lead times apply for large wildlife fencing programs?+

Common stock sizes are typically available ex-stock or short lead time. Mill direct project orders (full packs / containers) are subject to availability and mill rolling cycles — contact us with the BOQ for confirmed lead time.
