Why Choose Hardwood Fence Boards?
Hardwood fence boards offer complete design freedom. You determine the fence height, board spacing, layout and finish, allowing you to create a garden boundary that perfectly complements your home and landscaping.
Thanks to the natural durability of hardwood, the boards are highly resistant to moisture, rain, wind, insects and changing weather conditions.

- Complete design flexibility
- Natural premium appearance
- Suitable for both modern and traditional gardens
- Low maintenance
Build Your Own Hardwood Fence
Many homeowners choose to build their own garden fencing using individual hardwood fence boards. This allows complete freedom to create either a fully enclosed privacy fence or a more open decorative design with custom board spacing.
Building your own fence also makes it easier to accommodate sloping ground, unusual dimensions and bespoke landscaping requirements.
Fence Boards or Fence Panels?
If you're deciding between individual fence boards and ready-made fence panels, the right choice depends on your project. Hardwood fence boards offer complete flexibility and customisation, while pre-assembled hardwood fence panels provide faster installation.
For bespoke garden projects and premium landscaping, individual fence boards are often the preferred solution.
Choosing the Right Fence Posts
A strong fence begins with solid support. Hardwood fence boards are commonly installed with hardwood posts or concrete posts. Concrete posts offer additional protection against ground moisture and maximum structural stability, while hardwood posts provide a completely natural appearance.
The best option depends on your preferred design and site conditions.
Vertical or Horizontal Fence Boards?
Hardwood fence boards can be installed either vertically or horizontally. Vertical boards create a classic, traditional appearance, while horizontal installations have become increasingly popular in modern garden designs.
Both installation methods produce a durable, attractive and long-lasting garden fence.
Combining Hardwood with Other Materials
Hardwood fence boards combine beautifully with concrete, steel, natural stone, welded mesh panels and double wire mesh fencing. Mixing materials allows you to create a unique fence that perfectly complements the architecture of your home and the style of your garden.
Maintaining Hardwood Fence Boards
Hardwood requires very little maintenance. Over time, untreated timber naturally develops a beautiful silver-grey patina through exposure to sunlight and rain. This natural weathering process has no effect on the structural strength or lifespan of the wood.
If you wish to preserve the original colour, simply treat the boards periodically with a quality hardwood oil.
How Many Fence Boards Do You Need?
The number of fence boards required depends on the total fence length, board width and desired spacing between the boards. Careful planning before installation helps minimise waste and ensures a smooth construction process.
