What it's used for
- Residential garden boundary fencing where a solid, close-board appearance is required
- Screening utility areas, bins, or storage from view -
- Creating a windbreak in exposed or coastal garden settings
- Replacing worn or damaged panels in an existing close-board fence run
Fitting and handling
Allow panels to stand upright in a dry, ventilated space for 24 to 48 hours before installation so the timber can adjust to site conditions. Fix panels to 75mm x 75mm or 100mm x 100mm fence posts using galvanised or stainless steel fixings to avoid corrosion and staining of the treated timber. Although TANALITH E treatment provides rot and insect resistance, applying a compatible exterior timber preservative stain every two to three years will maintain appearance and extend service life.
FAQ
What is the difference between a V joint tongue and groove fence panel and a standard overlap panel?
V joint tongue and groove panels use interlocking boards machined with a V profile, creating a smooth, uniform face rather than the overlapping layers seen on traditional lap panels. The result is a more rigid, solid structure that holds its shape better over time and gives a cleaner, more formal appearance.
Does the TANALITH E treatment mean I do not need to paint or stain the panel?
TANALITH E treatment protects against rot and insect attack from within the timber, so the panel is structurally protected without additional treatment. However, the surface will weather to a silver-grey colour over time if left untreated. Applying a UV-stable exterior stain will keep the colour consistent and adds a further layer of surface protection.
Are matching gates available for the Hutton Deluxe range?
Yes. Hutton manufacture matching Highgrove gates and trellis panels built to the same specification, so you can achieve a coordinated finish throughout your garden boundary.
