This is a considerably durable softwood timber and performs much better than many other softwood pots such as Scandinavian Scots Pine. Douglas Fir has a superb graining pattern within the timber which will naturally weather down over a period of time to a silver grey colour, but it is also an ideal timber to apply paint, wood stains and oils to before installation.
We recommend using a post saver with Douglas Fir posts to protect them at ground level.
All Douglas Fir timbers are either PEFC or FSC certified.Prices inc vat
