Essential first steps toward installing your brushwood fence
Contact your local council for fencing regulations applicable in your area.
Always check with Dial Before You Dig prior to commencing installation.
Choose your installation method, whether it be in-line, post and rail, or framed.
Measure the length of your fence or screening area, noting corners and gate entries.
Determine the height and width for the panels you need.
Choose your panel thickness from our range:
a. Screening Only (40mm)
b. Standard (50mm)
c. Premium (60mm)
d. Super thick (65mm)
Note: greater thickness allows for better noise reduction
Maintenance Advice
Our brushwood fence panels feature a long life span and, when installed correctly, require very little maintenance. The panels naturally change colour as they cure over the first year after installation. From there, the colour will settle and retain its look for the lifetime of the product. Keeping them looking good is as simple as preventing soil build-up on the base of the panels and replacing the roll top capping every 10 to 12 years.
- Brushwood fence panels are a long-term investment. We offer support and advice to help keep your brushwood fence looking fresh for years.
- The roll top capping is the most critical part of maintaining your Bowman Brush brushwood fence. It must be replaced every 10 to 12 years to continue offering protection from the elements.
- Keeping soil away from the base of your fence is essential to keep it dry and prevent rotting.
Bonus maintenance tip: A quick spray with a 50/50 solution of linseed oil and turpentine once-a-year year helps to keep your Bowman Brush brushwood fence looking like new.
