Safari’s manual star picket driver provides a simple, durable way to install star pickets without striking the exposed top of the picket directly with a hammer.

The steel sleeve fits over the picket, while the side handles allow the operator to raise and lower the driver in a controlled motion. This keeps the striking action enclosed within the tool and helps keep the operator’s hands away from the impact point.

It is a practical option for construction sites, fencing work, rural properties and smaller jobs where a petrol-powered post driver is not required.

Manual or Petrol Star Picket Driver?

Choose the manual model for smaller jobs, occasional installations or sites where powered equipment is unnecessary. For long fence lines and repetitive post installation, Safari’s petrol star picket driver can reduce the manual effort and time required.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a manual star picket driver work?
Place the sleeve over the picket and use the handles to raise and lower the driver. The internal striking surface transfers the impact to the top of the picket.

Will it fit every star picket or steel post?
Safari’s star picket driver fits most pickets and posts on the market, but compatibility depends on the tool’s internal diameter and the outside dimensions of the post.

Is it suitable for commercial construction sites?
It is designed as a robust, portable option for construction, fencing, concreting and rural applications.

Does it replace the need for safe operating procedures?

Do you also supply powered star picket drivers?
Yes. Safari supplies a Petrol motorised post driver for repetitive and higher-volume work.
