    Trellis Fence

    Trellis fencing creates separation without turning a garden into a closed box. The open timber grid admits daylight, carries flowering climbers and gives patios or paths a defined edge. We select treated timber and fixings for the site, from salt-exposed coastal gardens to damp clay sections and frost-prone inland yards.

    How the Fence Looks From Each Side

    See how the open timber grid reads from the garden and neighbouring sides of the line.

    Presentation Side

    From the public side, the regular grid gives a garden boundary a balanced finish while leaves and flowers can weave through it.

    Property Side

    Inside the garden, restrained framing keeps the screen open and useful as a support for climbers.

    Configure the Fence for Your Site

    Select the grid direction, finished height, top detail and access gate around the planting and ground profile of your site.
