Excessive noise, often termed noise pollution, has the potential to interfere with communication, leisure pursuits and in severe cases can lead to hearing impairment or emotional strain. Wooden structures and barriers serve as excellent solutions for attenuating and redirecting sound, making them ideal for noise mitigation across different environments. Timber Acoustic Fencing barriers seamlessly blend with various outdoor surroundings, providing an appealing, snug, and inviting appearance.

The Timber Acoustic Fencing range from First Fence is specifically crafted to tackle noise pollution with efficiency, featuring a gate to facilitate convenient entry and exit points. The gate is exclusively designed for in-ground installation.

The EchoReflect Acoustic Timber Gate, measuring 1.0m wide, is offered in heights of 1.8m, 2.0m, and 2.4m, arriving in a pre-assembled configuration. This gate boasts a specifically tailored vertical profile, designed for precise installation to eliminate any gaps, thus proficiently obstructing sound transmission. If you've opted for an acoustic barrier, integrating this gate is strongly advised for optimal performance.

Features and Benefits

These timber sound barrier gates operate by deflecting noise through their surface profiles, composed of vertical sawn boards and cover strips. Secured with horizontal timber rails, they minimise the likelihood of gaps that could permit sound transmission.

Timber Acoustic Fencing and Gates offer a straightforward solution for homeowners, builders, and local authorities dealing with traffic noise issues. They're equally ideal for vibrant areas or businesses aiming to minimise unwelcome noise disruptions.

The Acoustic Fencing system has been independently tested by Salford University, meeting the standards set by Highways England (BS EN 1793 Road Traffic Noise Reducing Devices). Additionally, it complies with BS EN 1794-1 and BS EN 1794-2, adhering to Highways Sector Scheme 2C for the prefabrication of environmental barriers.

Crafted from Tanalised (UC4), pressure-treated timber sourced from an FSC certified supplier, this wood has a natural pale green hue that seamlessly blends with its environment. The timber undergoes surface incising at the manufacturer's site, a crucial step for ensuring optimal preservative protection, particularly for ground-contact timber.

These gates offer the flexibility of being painted with a breathable stain or paint. It's advisable to clear any vegetation where the acoustic fencing is to be installed and to avoid areas prone to water accumulation.

With a manufacturer-provided desired service life of 30 years, these timber acoustic barriers and gates are engineered to be maintenance-free, contingent upon proper installation. Consult a structural engineer to ascertain wind loading specifications tailored to your location.

These gates not only enhance aesthetics but also provide an effective solution for addressing excessive and unwanted noise in various applications, including residential, education, transport, commercial, and industrial sectors. In addition to noise management, acoustic fence panels offer increased privacy and a more aesthetically pleasing alternative to industrial-styled security fencing.
