Close Board Fencing – Our Premium Option

Close board fencing is the strongest and longest-lasting option for UK gardens. Unlike pre-made panels, close board is built section by section using individual vertical featherboard boards overlapped and nailed to horizontal rails. This creates an extremely robust fence that resists high winds and lasts significantly longer than standard panels.

Our close board installations use pressure-treated timber posts concreted into the ground, heavy-duty arris rails mortised into posts, featherboard boards secured with galvanised nails, concrete gravel boards at ground level, and capping rails along the top for a professional finish. Close board fencing can be repaired easily by replacing individual boards rather than entire sections, making it more economical long-term.

Standard height for rear garden close board fencing is 6ft (1.8m), though we can install 5ft for side boundaries or lower heights for front gardens. Close board looks attractive from both sides and is the preferred choice for discerning homeowners across Wakefield wanting fencing that will last 20+ years with proper maintenance.

Panel Fencing – Economical and Popular

Panel fencing remains the most popular choice for UK gardens, offering good privacy and security at affordable prices. We supply and install quality overlap panels in standard 6ft widths and heights from 3ft to 6ft. Our panels are pressure-treated to resist rot and come with a manufacturer’s guarantee.

Professional installation is crucial for panel longevity. We use concrete posts and gravel boards as standard, ensuring panels don’t sit in wet soil which causes premature rot. Posts are set in concrete at 6ft intervals, with panels secured using metal clips. This creates stable fencing that withstands Yorkshire weather.

Panel types we install include overlap panels with waney edge boards (most economical), larchlap panels with horizontal slats (mid-range option), and closeboard-effect panels combining panel convenience with close board appearance. All panels are 6ft wide to fit standard concrete post spacing.
