Octorail System
Description
The Octopost rails make a wonderful post and rail systems as the rail has a half octagonal profile, therefore, the completed fence is very pleasing to the eye. The Octorails are treated in the exact same way as the posts are, and are available in creosote or Tanasote.

Rail lengths
95mm x 4200mm, however the fitted length of each rail will be 3950mm (3.95m) thanks to the overlapping joint. This makes erecting the fence far simpler as the rail ends do not have to end on the post.
Please scroll down to see the various rail systems suitable for Octorail. The below examples are for 2.1m posts, however the shorter 1.8m post would be fine if the overall height of the fence could be lower and was fitted with 2 or 3 rows of rails.
