The Fastest, Strongest Way to Set Fence, Gate & Sign Posts

Building a new fence, gate, or sign? Skip the concrete—and build smarter with helical pile foundations from Screw Pile Installers. Our screw pile post systems deliver immediate load-bearing strength, year-round installation, and unmatched stability across British Columbia and Alberta. Perfect for homeowners, contractors, and developers who want a foundation that’s clean, fast, and built to last.
Whether you’re building on clay, sand, slopes, or frost-prone terrain, our screw piles provide unmatched stability and faster installation
than traditional concrete footings.

Permanent Stability for Fences, Gates & Signs

Traditional post holes and concrete footings can crack, shift, or heave over time—especially in Western Canada’s freeze-thaw climate. Helical piles eliminate those issues entirely. Installed below the frost line, they provide deep, corrosion-resistant anchoring that stays level for decades.
From residential backyards to commercial properties, our piles deliver long-term strength without the mess, waiting, or weather restrictions of concrete.

Our process is designed for speed, accuracy, and zero disruption—ideal for finished landscapes, existing fences, and high-traffic properties.
[01]
Site Assessment
We review your fence or sign layout, soil type, and load requirements to determine the best pile type and depth for your project.
[03]
Screw Pile Installation
Using compact hydraulic drivers, our installers screw each pile into the ground until it reaches engineered torque—ensuring solid, frost-proof anchoring.
[05]
Bracket or Mounting Installation
Brackets, adapters, or direct post mounts are attached to each pile, providing an immediate foundation ready for fencing, gates, or signage installation.
[02]
Layout & Marking
Each post or anchor location is precisely marked to ensure perfect spacing and alignment before installation begins.
[04]
Load Verification
We verify every pile’s torque and load capacity to guarantee a strong, stable foundation that meets or exceeds design requirements.
