FAQs

Does the slot weaken the post?

Under normal circumstances, yes, such a slot would weaken the post, but not with the Clipex™ system fencing post. We have completely re-engineered the cross-sectional profile to compensate. However, we do stipulate that to maintain maximum strength, you insert the post so that the bottom slot is set approximately 50mm above the ground.

How strong is the clip?
The clip was engineered so that the post will bend before the wire comes out. We have spent nearly a year constantly modifying the design of the clip so that the wire is held without compromised security, whilst still allowing you to pull the wire out easily when required. 

Is this post worth the extra cost?

NOW some of our products are the SAME cost as other quality products. This simply increases your cost savings further.

There are at least three levels of cost savings in the Clipex™ system:

  •   Save on Labour  – Time IS money, and taken into account when fencing, our system will cost you less EVERY time - up to 50% quicker.
  •   Save on Materials - With the Clipex™ system, you can quickly and simply attach all* the hinge joint or ring lock panel mesh wires into the post, so you no longer have to run support wires for the mesh. This alone is a significant saving up to  $0.45 PER METER . You also save on Tie clips and tie wire - which can cost around $0.08 per tie , saving up to $0.40 PER POST .
  • Save on Maintenance  - during the life of your fence you wil spend LESS time and LESS money on materials - no cutting or replacing tie clips, quicker post repacement - and easier re-straining.

See our Comparisons page where several fencing system costs are compared.

Ease of construction is another reason that the Clipex™ system is worth the extra unit cost. For example, how many people have ride-on lawnmowers and own less than an acre? In most cases this ride-on mower is not “cost efficient”, it's simply easier.

We guarantee the Clipex™ system will be a similar experience. Once you’ve used it, you'll never want to tie or thread a wire again.

* not all wires on EVERY panel mesh type will fit into every slot of the Clipex system.
