What Is an Under-Fence Plinth?
An under-fence plinth is a precast concrete panel that sits at the base of a fence, between the bottom fence rail and the ground. It fills the gap that would otherwise allow pests to pass under the fence, and protects the fence from sitting in soil and moisture.
The plinth slots into the steel fence posts and is held in place without the need for additional fixings.

Benefits of a Concrete Plinth
Pest control — Fills the gap under the fence to prevent animals from passing through.
Fence protection — Keeps the fence sheets off the ground, reducing the risk of corrosion at the base of Colorbond panels.
Handles uneven ground — Fills gaps under fence panels on sloping or uneven ground.
Durable — Concrete does not rot, rust or require maintenance.
Clean finish — Gives the fence a solid, finished appearance at ground level.
Plain vs Charcoal
The plain (grey) plinth is the most versatile option, suiting a wide range of fence colours and garden styles. For a more coordinated look with darker Colorbond colours, a charcoal plinth may be preferred.
Installation Tips
- Plinths are installed by slotting them into the steel fence posts before the fence sheets are installed
- On sloping ground, the plinth can be set at an angle to follow the ground, or the ground can be graded to suit
- Plinths can be cut to length if required for non-standard bay widths
