Hints and Tips

  • When erecting a 4' - 6' panel fence on wooden posts allow the post to be 3' longer than the overall height of the fence.

 

  • Use a wood preserver to treat any untreated softwood timber regularly.

 

  • When working on a gardens border lay down a timber plank to work from to keep the edges neat.

 

  • Place the soil from digging holes on a heavy duty plastic sheet to protect the lawn.

 

  • Always use posts caps on upright posts to prevent water sitting in the ends of the timber grains.

 

  • Check fences and posts for any rot/damage in the early spring so if any repairs are needed no vegetation will get damaged in the process.

 

  • If you want to erect our closeboard panels on timber posts we recommend to use a 100mm x 100mm post for extra strength.

 

  • Treat Iroko hardwood product with a teak oil to keep its rich colour, otherwise leave it to weather naturally and it will look similar to oak - a silvery grey.

 

  • A garden shed will last much longer if the felted roof is kept in good condition.
