Why Choose a 21-Board Privacy Fence Panel?

A privacy fence panel is an excellent choice when you want to reduce overlooking and create a more secluded outdoor space. The 21-board construction gives this panel a substantial appearance while allowing the natural texture and grain of the timber to remain visible.

Unlike open decorative fencing, the closely arranged boards provide a more effective visual barrier between neighbouring gardens or different areas of the same property.

The 180cm height is particularly useful for screening patios, seating areas and rear garden boundaries. Several panels can be installed together to create a continuous fence line.

As timber naturally expands and contracts with changes in temperature and moisture, small gaps may develop over time. A privacy fence panel therefore provides excellent screening but should not be considered completely gap-free.

21 Timber Boards Measuring 14x140mm

This wooden fence panel features 21 boards with a nominal thickness of 14mm and a width of 140mm.

Board thickness is an important consideration when comparing timber fence panels. A 14mm board is slightly thinner than a 16mm board, which can make this specification an attractive option for customers looking for an economical privacy fencing solution.

However, the overall strength of a fence depends on more than board thickness. The panel construction, quality of the fixings, supporting posts and foundations all contribute to the stability of the finished fence.

FSC-Certified Timber from Responsible Sources

The timber used for this fence panel is FSC-certified. FSC certification supports responsible forest management and provides assurance regarding the sourcing of timber through the applicable certification system.

Choosing certified wood allows you to combine the natural appearance of timber with greater attention to environmental and social considerations in the supply chain.

For more information about responsible timber sourcing, read our Intergard guide to FSC certification.

Chromium-Free Treated Softwood for Outdoor Use

This wooden fence panel is manufactured from chromium-free treated softwood. The preservative treatment helps protect the timber against biological deterioration, including premature fungal decay.

Treated softwood is widely used for garden fencing because it combines a natural appearance with practical protection for outdoor conditions.

Although the timber has been treated, correct installation remains important. Avoid placing the bottom of the panel directly against persistently damp soil and ensure that water can drain away from the fence.

The timber will naturally weather over time, and its colour may gradually change. If you wish to maintain a particular shade, a suitable exterior wood stain can be applied according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

Stainless Steel Screws for Long-Lasting Connections

The 21 timber boards are assembled using stainless steel screws. Stainless steel provides good resistance to corrosion and is particularly suitable for outdoor timber products exposed to changing weather conditions.

Using stainless steel fixings helps reduce the risk of rust marks around the screw heads and supports a secure connection between the timber components.

For installing the complete panel between fence posts, use suitable fence panel L-brackets or other compatible fixing hardware.

Wooden Fence Posts or Concrete Fence Posts?

This wooden fence panel can be combined with different supporting systems. The most suitable option depends on your preferred appearance, ground conditions and local wind exposure.

Traditional Wooden Fence Posts

For a completely natural garden fence, combine the panel with suitable wooden fence posts.

Wooden posts create a consistent timber appearance and are suitable for many traditional and contemporary garden designs.

Depending on the construction, posts can be installed in suitable foundations or secured using appropriate fence post spikes or H-post supports.

Always ensure that the chosen support system is suitable for the height, weight and wind exposure of a solid 180cm fence panel.

Wooden Fence Panels with Concrete Posts

For a robust fencing installation, the panel can also be combined with compatible concrete fence posts and concrete gravel boards.

A concrete gravel board can help keep the bottom of the timber panel away from direct ground contact, reducing prolonged exposure to moisture.

Timber-and-concrete fencing also offers an attractive contrast between natural wood and grey or anthracite concrete components.

Explore our range of wood-and-concrete fencing. Check that the selected posts, gravel boards and fixing system are compatible with this particular panel.

Where Can You Use a Wooden Fence Panel 180x180cm?

Garden Boundary Fencing

Install several wooden fence panels in a row to create a continuous boundary between neighbouring gardens. The 180cm height provides substantial screening and helps establish a clearly defined outdoor space.

Privacy Screening Around a Patio

A closely boarded timber panel is ideal for screening patios and seating areas. It reduces overlooking and can provide some shelter from the wind, depending on the location and orientation.

Rear Garden Fencing

This panel is suitable for enclosing a rear garden and can be combined with a matching wooden garden gate to provide convenient access.

Separating Garden Areas

Use individual panels to divide different areas of your garden, such as a patio, utility area or vegetable garden. The natural timber appearance blends well with planting and other landscaping features.

How to Install Wooden Fence Panels – Step-by-Step Guide

Installing a wooden garden fence requires careful planning, secure posts and suitable fixing materials. A solid 180cm-high fence panel can be exposed to considerable wind loads, so the supporting structure must be properly designed.

1. Step 1: Measure the Fence Line

   Measure the complete boundary and mark the intended position of the fence. Check the property boundary and any relevant local requirements before beginning installation.

2. Step 2: Calculate the Number of Panels

   Determine how many 180cm-wide panels are required. Allow for the width of the supporting posts, fixing gaps, corners and any garden gates.

3. Step 3: Mark the Fence Post Positions

   Use a string line to mark a straight fence line. Position the posts according to the actual panel dimensions and the selected installation method.

4. Step 4: Prepare the Foundations

   Choose foundations suitable for the soil conditions and expected wind loads. For a solid fence approximately 180cm high, posts are often installed around 60–80cm into the ground, but the required depth depends on local conditions and the construction.

5. Step 5: Install and Align the Posts

   Position each post vertically using a spirit level. Check the spacing carefully before securing the posts. Allow any concrete foundations to cure according to the manufacturer's instructions.

6. Step 6: Attach the Fence Panel

   Install suitable fence panel brackets and position the timber panel between the posts. Check that it is level before securing it with appropriate fixings.

7. Step 7: Complete the Fence Line

   Continue installing the remaining panels. Check the alignment regularly and add matching garden gates, post caps or finishing battens where required.

8. Step 8: Inspect the Finished Fence

   Check that all panels are firmly attached and that the posts are stable. Pay particular attention to corners, end posts and exposed areas where wind loading may be greater.

Installation tip: Keep the bottom of the timber panel clear of persistent ground moisture. Always use suitable posts, foundations and fixings for the site conditions.

Which Accessories Do You Need for a Complete Wooden Fence?

To create a complete garden fence, you will need suitable posts, fixing materials and potentially additional finishing accessories.

• Wooden fence posts: for a traditional timber fencing installation.
• Concrete posts and gravel boards: for compatible timber-and-concrete fencing systems.
• Fence panel L-brackets: for attaching panels to suitable posts.
• Fence post spikes: for compatible timber post installations.
• Post caps: for a neat finish to the tops of posts.
• Wooden garden gates: for convenient access through the fence.

How to Maintain a Treated Wooden Fence

Chromium-free treated softwood is designed to withstand outdoor conditions, but regular inspection and basic maintenance will help preserve the appearance and condition of your fence.

As a natural material, timber may gradually turn grey when exposed to sunlight and rain. Minor cracks, changes in colour and slight movement are normal characteristics of wood.

To keep your fence in good condition:

• Remove leaves, dirt and algae regularly.
• Clean the timber using a soft brush and suitable wood cleaner.
• Avoid prolonged contact between the panel and damp soil.
• Inspect posts, brackets and screws periodically.
• Apply a suitable exterior wood stain if you wish to maintain the original colour.
• Treat exposed or damaged timber according to the preservative manufacturer's recommendations.

With appropriate installation and maintenance, treated wooden fence panels can provide many years of practical garden screening.
