Performance & Installation
The overlapping board design provides effective screening while allowing some airflow, helping reduce wind pressure on the fence line. The surrounding timber frame adds rigidity, maintaining panel shape once secured between posts.
For installation, the panel should be fitted between compatible timber or concrete fence posts and raised off ground level using a gravel board to minimise moisture exposure. Proper fixing and alignment will ensure long-term structural stability.
