3.1m Recycled Plastic Horizontal Rail for Closed Board Fencing

3.1m Recycled Plastic Horizontal Rail for Closed Board Fencing

Closed board fencing is a timeless and reliable option for those in need of a strong, durable, and private fencing solution. Its sturdy design provides excellent wind resistance, privacy, and long-lasting protection for homes, gardens, and commercial properties. With the flexibility to customize both length and height, and the ease of repairing individual boards, it stands out as a versatile and cost-effective choice.

Closed board fencing is constructed using vertical boards that are firmly attached to horizontal rails mounted on posts. While traditionally made from wood, recycled plastic is also available, offering the appearance of timber with a range of additional advantages.

Introducing Recycled Plastic Closed Board Fencing

First Fence’s recycled closed board fencing is made from Plaswood, a material derived from recycled plastic. This innovative and durable material mimics the appearance of real wood but is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, including extreme temperatures, UV exposure, and moisture. Unlike natural wood, plastic does not rot, warp, attract insects, or splinter. The product and its raw materials are rigorously tested by independent experts to ensure quality, and the recycling process transforms waste into new, sustainable materials.

This 3.1m recycled plastic rail is specifically designed for use with the recycled plastic closed board fencing system. We recommend two rails for the 1.2m and 1.5m system, and three rails for the 1.8m system; one at the top, bottom and centre.

This is a dig-in fencing system and requires one bag of post mix per post. It is recommended that posts are installed at 1.5m (+/- 50mm) post centre intervals. To fix the posts, rails and pales together use twin flight, parallel thread, coarse pitch screws, similar to those used with wooden particle boards or hi-low screws. Please note that these fixings do not come with the product.

Plastic closed board fencing offers flexibility and customisation, allowing you to create a fence of any length. It’s an excellent choice for those seeking a low-maintenance, eco-friendly, and long-lasting option, combining the durability and strength of plastic with the natural look of wood.

After proper installation, this fencing requires very little maintenance. However, it is recommended to periodically check all connections to ensure their stability and promptly carry out any necessary repairs.
