FAQs

What are the dimensions of the gravel boards?

These boards are designed for 1.83m x 45mm fence panels.

Are these boards suitable for all types of fences?

They are suitable for fences that use 1.83m or 1.80m wide fence panels.

How do I clean the concrete gravel boards?

You can clean them with water and a mild detergent.

What is the lifespan of these boards?

Concrete gravel boards are very durable and can last for many years, often outlasting the fence panels themselves.

Can I paint the concrete gravel boards?

While you can paint them, it is generally not necessary as they come in a finished grey color. If you do paint them, use a concrete-specific paint.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

You may need a level, a shovel for digging if you are installing posts, and potentially some assistance due to the weight of the boards.

Troubleshooting

Board is not level after installation.

Adjust the base support or packing beneath the board until level.

Board appears to be cracked.

Inspect the board carefully. Small cracks are normal, but if the crack is significant, replace the board.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly extends the life of wooden fence panels.
  • Resistant to rot, rust, and insect damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Compatibility: These gravel boards are specifically designed for use with 1.83m or 1.80m wide fence panels. Ensure your fence panels match these dimensions.
  2. Installation: The concrete gravel boards should be installed at the base of your fence posts, before the fence panels are fitted. This provides a barrier against ground contact.
  3. Care: The boards require very little maintenance. You can clean them with water and a mild detergent if needed. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  4. Handling: Due to their weight, handle with care during installation. Consider using assistance to lift and position the boards safely.
