FAQs

What scale is this fencing kit for?

This kit is designed for HO and OO gauge model railways.

Do I need to paint the fencing?

The fencing is supplied with pre-coloured brown parts. However, painting or weathering is recommended to add further realism and a unique finish.

What type of glue should I use?

A standard plastic cement or a PVA wood glue suitable for model making is recommended for assembly.

How many fence sections are included?

The pack contains 8 lengths of fencing, each measuring 75mm.

Are the mounting posts included?

Yes, the pack includes 16 mounting posts.

Can I cut the fencing to shorter lengths?

Yes, you can carefully cut the 75mm sections to shorter lengths using a sharp craft knife or modeller's saw if needed for specific placements.

Troubleshooting

Fencing sections not sticking to posts

Ensure you are using an appropriate model glue. Clean any dust or residue from the connection points on both the fencing and the posts. Allow adequate drying time for the glue.

Parts appear too light or don't match desired scenery

The fencing is designed to be painted or weathered. Apply a suitable model paint or weathering wash to achieve the desired colour and aged effect.

Uneven or wobbly fence line

Ensure all mounting posts are firmly secured to your baseboard or scenery. Check that the fencing sections are evenly attached to the posts and that the ground is level where the fence is installed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the fencing sections and mounting posts.
  2. Apply a small amount of suitable model glue to the base of the mounting posts where they will connect to the fencing sections.
  3. Carefully attach the fencing sections to the posts, holding them in place until the glue sets.
  4. Use the remaining posts to secure the ends of fencing runs or to add intermediate support as needed.

Compatibility:

  • This product is designed for HO/OO gauge model railways.
  • It is compatible with most standard model railway scenery and building products in the same scale.

Care:

  • Keep the model components away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent warping or discoloration.

  • Clean with a soft, dry brush to remove dust. Avoid using liquids unless specifically for weathering effects.
