About Our Fencing Range
Our fencing collection covers everything you need to define, secure, and improve your garden boundaries. We stock fence panels, trellis, fence posts, picket fencing, and closeboard options. All timber products are pressure-treated for long-lasting outdoor performance without annual retreating.
A well-built fence does three jobs: privacy, security, and wind protection for your plants. We supply panels in 6ft and 5ft heights to suit different boundary requirements. Trellis panels add height for climbing plants without blocking light. For a complete garden transformation, pair new fencing with our landscaping products including raised beds and path edging.
Ground cover alongside your new fence looks best with decorative stones and gravel. A gravel border at the fence base prevents mud splashing onto the panels and reduces maintenance.
Why We Chose This Range
"We always tell customers to use concrete fence post spurs rather than burying timber directly. Posts last three times longer. We picked this fencing range because the timber is genuinely pressure-treated, not just dipped. The panels are solid, the posts are straight, and they arrive without the warping you get from cheaper suppliers."

Fence Panels
Lap panel, feather edge, and hit-and-miss styles in 5ft and 6ft heights. Standard 6ft (1.83m) widths fit between posts spaced at 1.83m centres. Pressure-treated timber resists rot for 15 years. Panels slot into concrete or timber posts for straightforward replacement.
Trellis Panels
Diamond and square lattice trellis in various heights. Add on top of existing fence panels for extra privacy and climbing plant support. Lightweight construction puts minimal strain on posts. Perfect for training roses, clematis, and honeysuckle along boundaries.
Fence Posts and Fixings
Timber and concrete fence posts in lengths to match your panel height. Concrete posts outlast timber and never rot. Timber posts suit traditional gardens and are easier to cut to length. We also stock post caps, gravel boards, clips, and brackets.
Picket Fencing and Closeboard
Picket fencing for front gardens and decorative boundaries. Closeboard (feather edge) fencing for maximum privacy and wind resistance. Each board overlaps the next, leaving no gaps. Closeboard fences handle exposed, windy sites better than standard lap panels.
Quick Guide: Measure your boundary length and divide by 1.83m to calculate how many panels you need. Add one extra post beyond the panel count (you need a post at each end). Use concrete posts and gravel boards for the longest-lasting fence with the least maintenance.
Matt's Installation Tip: Post Foundations
Never bury timber posts directly in soil. Use concrete post spurs (also called repair spurs) set into postcrete or concrete. The spur keeps the timber above ground level where water collects. This triples the lifespan of your posts. If a post rots later, you replace just the post without digging out the concrete foundation.
Fencing costs vary by style and height. Standard 6ft lap panels typically cost £25-£45 each. Concrete posts run £12-£20 per post. A 10m fence run needs roughly 5-6 panels and 6-7 posts. For paths and borders alongside your new fence, explore our landscaping products.
Frequently Asked Questions
How high can a garden fence be in the UK?
Garden fences up to 2m (6ft 6in) do not need planning permission. Fences beside a highway must stay below 1m. Conservation areas and listed properties may have stricter limits. Adding trellis on top of a 6ft fence takes it over 2m, which normally requires a planning application. Always check with your local authority first.
How long do pressure-treated fence panels last?
Pressure-treated fence panels last 15-20 years outdoors. The treatment forces preservative deep into the grain, preventing rot from rain and ground moisture. You do not need to apply additional treatment unless you want to change the colour. Untreated panels typically last only 3-5 years before rotting.
Should I use concrete or timber fence posts?
Concrete posts last longer and never rot. They suit exposed sites and long boundary runs where durability matters most. Timber posts look more natural in cottage-style gardens and are easier to cut on site. For the best of both, use concrete post spurs with timber posts bolted above ground level.
Which side of the fence do I own in the UK?
Check your property deeds or title plan at the Land Registry. A "T" mark on the plan shows which property owns that boundary. An "H" mark means joint ownership. There is no general rule about left or right side. When in doubt, discuss with your neighbour before replacing or altering any boundary fence.
How do I stop fence panels blowing down in wind?
Use concrete posts set at least 600mm deep in postcrete or concrete. Ensure gravel boards sit beneath panels to lift them off wet ground. In exposed gardens, closeboard fencing handles wind better than lap panels. There are no gaps for gusts to catch. Check all post fixings annually before autumn storms.
Can I attach trellis to the top of existing fence panels?
Yes, trellis extends fence height and supports climbing plants. Screw trellis brackets to the top of your posts. Keep the total height under 2m to avoid planning permission. Lightweight trellis adds minimal load to the posts. Choose a trellis height that brings the total fence to just under the 2m limit.
