A galvanised gravel board clip is the straightforward way to fix a timber gravel board to a timber fence post without complicated joinery or through-bolting. These clips hold the gravel board firmly in position at the base of the fence panel, keeping it clear of the ground and making it simple to replace the board later without disturbing the rest of the fence. Each box contains 25 clips, giving you enough to work across a good run of fencing in one go.
Gravel board clips are used wherever a timber gravel board sits between fence posts at ground level. The clip bridges the gap between the board face and the post face, holding the board securely in position. Because the board is not permanently fixed into the post, it can be swapped out quickly when it starts to rot at the base. That is one of the main reasons gravel boards exist in the first place. Anyone who has replaced a full fence panel when only the bottom 150mm had gone soft will appreciate the logic.
Sizes Available for Gravel Board Clips
These galvanised gravel board clips are available in three sizes to suit the most common combinations of gravel board and post dimension:
150 x 25mm suits a standard 25mm thick gravel board fixed to a post face. 150 x 50mm suits a 150mm wide board against a 50mm post face, or a board recessed into a slotted post. 170 x 50mm provides a slightly taller clip face for deeper boards or where a little extra coverage is needed at the base.
Checking your board width and post face dimension before ordering takes seconds and avoids the inconvenience of clips that do not sit flush. Most domestic timber fencing uses the 150 x 50mm size, but it is worth measuring rather than assuming.
Why Galvanised Clips Hold Up Outdoors
Galvanising provides a zinc coating that resists corrosion in outdoor and ground-level conditions. For fencing hardware that sits close to soil, grass, and standing water, this matters. Uncoated steel fixings will rust and stain timber within a season or two in typical UK weather. Galvanised gravel board clips maintain their grip and appearance over the long term without any maintenance, which is exactly what you want from a fixing that is partly buried behind a board at the base of a fence.
The clips are nailed or screwed directly to the post face, with the board sliding or pressing into the clip channel. Installation is quick, does not require drilling, and can be completed with standard fencing tools. For a fencing contractor working through a run of panels, the time saving over alternative fixing methods adds up noticeably across a full day.
Sold in boxes of 25, these gravel board clips are priced for trade use and suit anyone working on residential garden fencing, boundary fencing, or estate maintenance.
Pro Tip: Always fix the gravel board clip to the post before positioning the board, as trying to nail into a post with the board already in place is awkward and rarely results in a clean finish.
Galvanised gravel board clips are used in timber close-board and panel fencing installations where a gravel board runs along the base between posts. They are common on residential garden fencing, housing estate boundaries, and agricultural or commercial perimeter fencing where timber posts are used. Landscapers, fencing contractors, and groundworkers all use these clips regularly as part of standard fence construction and repair work.

Suitable for outdoor and ground-level use
Not suitable for: These clips are designed for timber-to-timber fixing only and are not suitable for use with concrete gravel boards or concrete fence posts. They are not intended for structural load-bearing applications.
Fix each gravel board clip directly to the face of the timber fence post using nails or screws, positioning the clip so the channel aligns with where the gravel board will sit. Slide or press the timber gravel board into the clip channel and check it sits level before fixing the next clip on the opposite post. Two clips per board, one at each end, is standard practice for boards up to around 1.8m in length.
Measure your gravel board width and post face dimension to confirm the correct clip size before starting.
Position the first clip on the inside face of the fence post at the correct height for the gravel board.
Fix the clip to the post using nails or screws through the fixing holes.
Repeat on the opposite post, keeping both clips level with each other.
Slide the timber gravel board into the clip channels from above or press it into place.
Check the board sits level and flush with the post faces before moving to the next bay.
How many clips do I need per gravel board?
Two clips per board is standard, one fixed to each post at either end of the board. For boards longer than 1.8m, or where additional support is needed, a third clip in the centre of a mid-span post can be added.
Which size gravel board clip should I order?
The 150 x 50mm clip suits most standard domestic fencing where a 150mm wide gravel board is used with 50mm timber posts. The 150 x 25mm clip is for thinner boards or lighter post sections. The 170 x 50mm clip suits deeper boards or installations where a little extra clip height is needed. Measure your board width and post face before ordering.
Can these clips be used with concrete posts or concrete gravel boards?
No. These galvanised gravel board clips are designed for timber-to-timber use only. They will not fix securely to concrete posts, and they are not suitable for holding concrete gravel boards.
These gravel board clips are manufactured from steel with a galvanised finish, providing a zinc coating that resists rust and corrosion in exposed outdoor conditions. The clip profile is formed to accept standard timber gravel boards and allows the board to be retained securely against the post face without permanent fastening. Galvanised fencing hardware is the accepted standard for ground-level outdoor timber fixing in UK construction and landscaping.
