What makes Douglas fir a good option for fencing?

Douglas Fir is an excellent option for fence panels because it is highly durable and naturally resistant to environmental challenges. This type of wood is well-known for its strength and toughness, which allows it to withstand weather conditions without warping, splitting, rotting, decaying, or being attacked by pests. This resilience makes it an ideal material for outdoor applications, ensuring longevity and maintaining structural integrity over time. Additionally, the natural resins present in Douglas Fir provide organic protection against insects and fungal growth, further enhancing its suitability for fence panels.

How wide are the fir panels?

Available in standard widths of 1800mm and 2100mm, our Douglas Fir panels provide flexibility in design and application, suitable for various garden sizes and styles. Bespoke options are also available to cater to specific needs.

How long does a Douglas fir fence panel last?

Douglas Fir panels are renowned for their longevity and have a lifespan of 20 years, longer if treated often.

With natural resistance to environmental elements, these panels can last for decades, maintaining their structural integrity and visual appeal with minimal maintenance.

Is Douglas fir a good alternative to Siberian larch?

Douglas Fir is a great alternative to Siberian larch for fencing, cladding, and construction. Both timbers are known for their durability and resistance to decay and rot, making them suitable for outdoor environments. Aesthetically, Douglas Fir typically displays a pronounced contrast between reddish-brown heartwood and lighter sandy-toned sapwood, while Siberian Larch has a more uniform golden-brown colour. This choice between the two is a matter of specific design preferences.

Additionally, both types of wood are known for their strength and can be sustainably sourced, with certifications like FSC or PEFC ensuring responsible forestry practices.
