Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install these panels, ensure you have compatible wooden fence posts if mounting as a topper or a divider. For wall mounting, use appropriate masonry or timber screws along with spacers to prevent the wood from sitting directly against wet brickwork, which can trap moisture.
Maintenance Tips
- Annual Inspection: Check all joints and fasteners every spring to ensure the wood hasn't shifted during winter.
- Staining: Although pressure-treated, applying an external-grade wood preservative or stain every 2-3 years will keep the timber looking fresh and further extend its life.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a light hose spray to remove dirt, moss, or cobwebs; avoid high-pressure power washers as they can damage the timber fibers.
