Fencing

Timber Fencing

An ever-popular choice, timber fencing is functional, aesthetically pleasing, and easily customised. A timber fence and gate will require regular cleaning, painting, and staining. Our selection ranges from standard posts and palings through to premium options such as Primewood, laminated, and picket fences, plus decorative trellis.

Composite Fencing

A modern solution to fencing, composite products are typically engineered from recycled wood and plastic. The result is a sustainable and low-maintenance alternative to traditional timber fencing. Composite fences don’t require painting or staining, are easy to install, and both neighbours get ‘the good side’. Our range includes Stabifence, BiForm, and Durafence.

Paling Fencing

Paling fences are a type of fencing made from vertical wooden or metal boards (pales) fixed to horizontal rails. They provide a traditional, durable, and cost-effective solution for privacy, security, and boundary marking in residential or rural properties. A paling fence is made up of vertical boards or slats (called pales) that are spaced evenly and attached to horizontal rails, which are fixed to vertical posts.
