Slat Fencing & Wall Extensions

Set the privacy with the spacing

Close slats hide the garden. Wider gaps let in air and a view. Decide what you want to see, how much wind the fence takes and the look you want before the spacing is fixed.

Wall extensions

Slat panels can go on top of an existing boundary wall or fence to raise it without more brickwork. The wall has to carry the extra height and wind, so we look at it on the site visit before we quote.

Steel or aluminium?

Neither is better everywhere. Exposure, span, weight and maintenance decide it. If material leads your decision and you are open to another profile, compare Aluminium Fencing.

Straight lines need good supports

Even spacing depends on the panel frame, the post spacing, the levels and the installation. We survey slopes before anything is made.

Screening inside the property?

For a patio, balcony or pool screen rather than a boundary, see Privacy Screens.
