What’s the Process Behind the Product?

For over 45 years, Kinghitter has been world leaders in the design and manufacture of hydraulic post drivers. Ever since the first Kinghitter rolled off the production line in 1977, they have been recognised for their legendary reliability, usability and cuttingedge design, paving the way for generations of fencers.

New Zealand Made

Why Kinghitter?

Beyond the product differences, like our 350-grade mast steel and custom-built Italian valve banks - it’s our after-sales team and nationwide dealer network that really sets Kinghitter apart. Your machine will be properly set up on your tractor, and more importantly, you’ll have easy access to parts and service when it matters most. A major advantage when a breakdown happens while you are in the middle of a fence line.

Dealing directly with an importer or small manufacturer might seem appealing at first, especially on price. But once they’ve got your money, will they be there in a few years time when you need some support? Are they committed to keeping you going, or just closing the sale?

Picture this: you're a several hours’ drive (or a flight) away from the manufacturer of your machine. Something breaks. They’re a small team, tied up on another job, and they don’t have a dedicated after-sales team to support you. You’re stuck with no one to talk to, wasting time and losing money — and suddenly that ‘great deal’ doesn’t feel so great. Or you could just call your local dealer or the Kinghitter after-sales team, and be back fencing in no time.
