Traditional close board fencing is one of the most popular and robust designs, offering security, privacy and shade. Also known as feather board or feather edge fencing, traditional close board is fully assembled on site, allowing us to accommodate changes in the ground level without needing to step the fence.
Flexible Design with Added Privacy and Style
Traditional close board fencing is incredibly versatile and is the perfect solution for most boundaries. Made from pressure treated softwood for durability, it also offers the option to add a capping rail or decorative trellis for additional privacy.
