Product Information

Full details

The Snowdon Timber Feather Edge Fence Boards are designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to construct durable, private garden boundaries. These robust, pressure-treated softwood boards offer excellent longevity and a classic aesthetic, making them ideal for creating custom fence panels or garden enclosures. While they provide exceptional security and a clean finish, users should note that they require significant labor for installation as they must be overlapped and nailed individually to create a solid fence surface.

FAQs

What is the thickness of these boards?

The boards feature a tapered edge, with the thickest point being 11mm.

Are these boards pre-painted?

No, they are supplied as natural pressure-treated softwood. You can apply your own choice of exterior wood paint or stain once installed.

Can I use these for a 2-meter tall fence?

These boards are 1.8 meters long, so they are specifically intended for 1.8-meter fencing. They would not be suitable for a 2-meter fence without additional framing or support.

How many boards come in a pack?

This product comes in a pack of 20 boards.

Do I need to treat the cut ends?

Yes, whenever you cut the boards to size, you should apply a brush-on timber preservative to the exposed end grain to prevent moisture ingress.

Troubleshooting

Boards are warping after installation

Ensure the boards are securely nailed to at least three horizontal rails; improper fastening can allow timber to move as it dries.

Nails are leaving black streaks on the wood

This is a reaction between the treatment chemicals and standard steel. Switch to hot-dipped galvanized or stainless steel nails.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Overlapping design enhances privacy by eliminating gaps
  • Pressure-treated for superior resistance to rot and weathering
  • Standard dimensions simplify the planning and installation process
  • Cost-effective solution for large-scale fencing projects

Cons

  • Labor-intensive installation requires manual overlapping and nailing
  • Softwood requires periodic maintenance or staining to retain appearance
  • Heavy pack weight may require two-person handling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To install, you will need a stable frame of vertical fence posts and horizontal rails. Begin by attaching the first board vertically, then overlap the next board by approximately 20mm-25mm, securing it to the horizontal rails with galvanized nails to prevent rust. Ensure you use a spirit level for the first few boards to keep the fence plumb.

Compatibility: These boards are compatible with standard timber fence posts and rails. Ensure your hardware (nails, screws) is rated for outdoor use to avoid premature corrosion.

Care: Although pressure-treated, we recommend applying a high-quality timber preservative or exterior wood stain every 2-3 years. This will protect the color, prevent UV damage, and further extend the lifespan of the wood.
