Wood fence post comparison into the ground

Standard Wood Posts in the Ground

Traditionally installed wood posts are dropped into a hole, then encased in concrete to prevent movement.

This installation method commonly runs into issues over time. Moisture can become trapped around the footing, allowing water to soak into the post and accelerate rot below ground. Above ground, repeated exposure to rain and irrigation can also break down the wood. As the seasons change, natural expansion and contraction cause the posts to loosen, which can lead to leaning, shifting, and overall instability.

Standard Wood Posts at Ground Level

Traditionally installed wood posts are weakest at the ground level, where they're prone to rot from moisture exposure.

This means concrete-set posts can be sturdy, but they're at a greater risk of rotting, attracting termites, and possibly shifting due to concrete settlement and soil changes. That's why our team prefers the King Plus method, which uses strong, metal poles that won't rot or disintegrate after installation.

Underground is where the real magic happens. Each post is driven 4 feet into the ground to offer enhanced stability.

No one wants a wood fence they have to worry about. And with King Plus, you don't have to. Gavanized steel posts are highly durable, resistant to rust and corrosion, and are set 50% deeper than regular wood fence posts to keep your panels strong for years to come.

King Plus Posts at Ground Level

The King Plus method uses posts that are entirely made of galvanized steel, so your fence won't rot or decay at the base.

King Plus steel posts are schedule 20 and 2.5 inches in diameter. Meaning, you get a tough post proven to last with wind resistance up to 112 mph. Each post is driven deep underground and concealed in a wood "box" casing, using beautiful 4x4s to conceal the metal post for a seamless look.

Wood fences are prone to issues at the base of the posts. Our I Drive Power System reinforces traditional wood posts with steel pipes. That means no wood enters the ground, which prevents rotting, lifting, leaning, and sinking due to frost heave or settlement.

No Mess. No Holes. No Mud.

Vinyl fence post comparison into the ground

Vinyl fence post in ground with concrete

Standard Vinyl Posts in the Ground

Traditionally installed vinyl fence posts are placed into concrete footings that are buried about 2-3 feet below ground.

Concrete footings can last for over 20 years when properly installed, but the key failure lies in their potential to shift and crack. Ground disturbance from digging also means your fence can be pushed up from expansion and contraction as the soil freezes and thaws.

Standard Vinyl Posts at Ground Level

Vinyl fence posts don't rot or warp, but ground level is where most fences fail due to wind and pressure.

Tough winds can easily blow down a vinyl fence set in concrete, not because concrete is bad, but because the vinyl fence lacks critical support at the ground level to stop it from bending over. Lack of reinforcement is the ultimate weakness for any vinyl fence.

Vinyl I Drive System in the Ground

Every steel beam extends up to 4 feet inside the fence post, adding core strength to the weakest point of a vinyl fence.

A vinyl post set in concrete has no internal reinforcement at ground level, so strong winds can flex it and cause it to crack near the bottom rail. That's why we drive posts deep underground, preserving the strength of your post from top to bottom.

Vinyl I Drive System at Ground Level

We use a steel beam in place of regular vinyl posts to reinforce your fence and stop it from bending and breaking.

Each beam is held in place with an adapter called a Uni-5, which acts as a brace to secure the pole, form a tight barrier with the vinyl sleeve, and keep your fence upright for decades without loosening or bending. It's reinforcement at its finest.

Vinyl fences are already built to last, but the I Drive Power System makes them even stronger thanks to steel beams and Uni-5 adapters. It locks the steel pole in the vinyl sleeve, forging a tight connection that doesn't loosen over time.

Hassle-free. Zero mess.

Aluminum fence post comparison into the ground

Standard Aluminum Posts in the Ground

Concrete footings can weaken over time due to changes in the soil, lack of supportive pressure, and frost heaving.

Standard posts in concrete are more prone to kinking or breaking when pressure is applied, as they lack sufficient reinforcement, making them easier to pull out or knock down. Lack of support ultimately weakens regular aluminum posts, even when installed properly.

Standard Aluminum Posts at Ground Level

Traditional aluminum fences are made in pre-welded panels with long posts that get partially set in concrete.

Concrete-setting an aluminum fence isn't inherently bad, but it doesn't offer the reinforcement necessary to stop fences from bending, bowing, or collapsing in high winds or when faced with impact or pressure. Concrete settlement can also lead to lifting and uneven panels.

I Drive Aluminum Posts in the Ground

What happens at ground level matters. I Drive aluminum posts extend below ground to reinforce each panel of your fence.

Our specialized posts are held in place at the bottom rail with a fastener to prevent any movement or loosening over time. The driven technology uses the soil's natural compaction to forge an anchor that doesn't shift or lift your fence when temperatures change.

We drive aluminum posts 3-4 feet into the ground to create a stable anchor that lasts for decades.

The I Drive Power System adds invaluable reinforcement to your aluminum fence that makes it more resistant to bending, breaking, leaning, shifting, or pulling out. This system is faster, easier to install, and makes your fence last longer than any other method.

Chain Link fence post in ground with concrete

Concrete-Set Posts in the Ground

Many fence owners are surprised to find their supposedly durable chain link fence falling over in just a few years.

As concrete footings age, they can crack and fill with groundwater, which can freeze and thaw, lifting your fence out of the ground. These footings also weaken your fence at the base, making it easier to knock down, whether by a person or a strong storm.

Concrete-Set Posts at Ground Level

Concrete-set fence posts can last for a long time, but they are more prone to shifting and lifting due to natural changes.

Eliminating the weakest point saves your fence, saves you money, and saves you the anxiety of worrying your fence can't do its job. With concrete, there's always a risk that your fence may lift or break, so you have to be extra-cautious about applying pressure.

I Drive Steel Beams in the Ground

All of our chain link fences reach 3-4 feet below ground and use natural tensioning from soil compaction to prevent shifting.

Thanks to the reinforcement of our advanced technology, your chain link fence won't start settling, be easily knocked over, or bend and break. The added reinforcement of our system prevents these problems from ever happening, so you can have total peace of mind.

We use the I Drive Power System to enhance your chain link fence's foundation, which improves every other part of the fence.

Driven posts resist shifting and changes due to settlement, and they're wind-tested at speeds exceeding 100 mph. Less soil disruption means stronger anchoring and fewer repairs for you to worry about. Galvanized steel doesn't rot, warp, or bend over time, so your fence stays strong.

Chain Link Fence I Drive Post Installation

Driving your chain link fence posts leads to a more stable fence that's less likely to break or need expensive repairs over its lifetime. The I Drive Power System eliminates all the hassle of regular, messy installation to give you a stronger fence.

No holes. No mess. No shifting.
