supplier needed for pvc coated posts please?
Posted by Marcella Ross on February 7, 2008 at 3:58 pmI’m looking for a supplier for pvc coated posts.
I need 6m 114mm diameter posts but tried 3 companies and had no luck with 6m lengths.
Dee Organ can get them in for me but want £98 per post plus a MASSIVE delivery charge ……… way in excess of £100!!!!any help appreciated.

What about Gibson’s Marcella, have you tried them?
Think Robert mentioned them in another post on Posts and panels a few days ago.
They are in Rutherglen and I always found them to be pretty good. -
Hi Marcella
the last time I needed 6m posts I ended up using ASHBY as nobody else has them / would send them.

ASD metals are usually pretty good
http://www.asdmetalservices.co.uk/
go to the aluminium and stainless section, you will find a sign components section, 114mm posts are in there.
tried to do a link thingy but it wouldn’t work for some reason??

thanks guys.
Martin – Gibsons was my first port of call but they faxed back saying they had no 6m posts.
I thought of Ashby but wondered if they’d deliver that size up here …..never heard of ASD metals, will give them a try too.
thank you. 😀

Just called ASD ………… they don’t do signposts apparently but may be able to source them. Going to call me back.
But the guy says, ‘what’s your name please’ I say ‘Marcella’ he says ‘ Oh lovely name ………… but is it your first name or your last name?’ 😕 :lol1: -
Blackburns do them.

I buy all my posts from them, they even do them black as a special for me, their website shows they do 50, 60, 76, 89 and 114mm in grey and mill finish.
Maybe he just wanted to get off home..!!
it’s their loss I suppose.

maybe he did want to go home!
I called the branch in Coatbridge and they said they don’t do that kind of thing but to call their Edinburgh branch. So I did and that was the guy who said he may be able to source them. 😕We’ll see, he said someone would call me back tomorrow.
I’ll try Blackburns in the morning too – see who’s the cheapest! :lol1:

quote Robert Lambie:have you tried curries in airdrie marcella?
