Performance & Installation
The canted (angled) design helps deflect rainwater away from the top surface of the rail, reducing water retention and prolonging service life. When installed between timber fence posts, cant rails form the main structural framework for attaching vertical featheredge boards.
For installation, secure rails firmly to posts using exterior-grade galvanised nails or screws to prevent corrosion. Ensure correct spacing and alignment to maintain fence strength and visual consistency.
