A lattice-topped fence combines a private lower panel with a lighter upper edge. It can screen seating areas and neighbouring windows while allowing sun and breeze around the top. The structure can be strengthened for exposed wind zones and detailed with suitable treated timber for wet clay, coastal moisture or alpine freeze-thaw cycles.

How the Fence Looks From Each Side

See how the private lower panel and daylight-friendly upper grid appear on either side.

Presentation Side

Outside, the solid base forms a private boundary and the lattice gives the top line a lighter architectural detail.

Property Side

Inside, the rails support the lower boards while the upper grid admits light and can carry climbing plants.
