Which Type of Fencing Should You Choose?

Fence panels provide a straightforward way to create privacy and define a garden boundary. They are available in different styles and can be installed between timber or concrete posts.

Closeboard fencing, made using feather edge boards, rails and posts, is a strong option for longer boundaries, sloping ground and projects where panels may not provide enough flexibility.

Trellis panels can be used for decorative screening, climbing plants or adding extra height above a fence. Garden gates provide access while helping the boundary maintain a consistent appearance.

What Materials Are Needed for a Complete Fence?

A typical panel fencing project may require fence panels, posts, gravel boards, post fix and suitable fixings. Gravel boards help keep timber panels away from direct ground contact, while correctly installed posts provide the main structural support.

For closeboard fencing, the usual materials include feather edge boards, horizontal rails, posts, gravel boards and fixings. The exact quantities will depend on the length of the boundary, fence height, ground conditions and spacing between posts.

Timber Posts or Concrete Fence Posts?

Timber fence posts provide a traditional appearance and are generally easier to cut and work with. Concrete fence posts are heavier but offer strong support and do not rot where they meet the ground.

The best option depends on the required finish, available budget, installation method and expected lifespan of the fence.

How Much Fencing Do You Need?

Measure the total length of the boundary and decide on the required fence height before ordering. For panel fencing, divide the boundary length by the panel width and allow for the number of posts, gravel boards and fixings required.

If the boundary includes corners, gates, slopes or changes in height, additional posts and materials may be needed. Contact our team with your measurements if you need help estimating quantities for your fencing project.
