6×4 Waney Lap

6×4 waney lap fence panel

6×4 waney lap fence panel designed to provide a practical, cost-effective fencing solution while maintaining a traditional garden appearance. Manufactured using quality timber and finished with a Dipped Gold treatment, this panel is ideal for lower boundary fencing, garden divisions, and installations where a reduced height is required, particularly when used with gravel boards.

The 6×4 waney lap fence panel is a popular choice for customers who want a tidy, traditional fence line without the height of a full 6ft panel. It works especially well for side boundaries, front gardens, patio areas, and properties where fencing height restrictions apply. Despite its lower height, the panel still provides a clear boundary and a consistent, well-finished look.

Waney lap fencing is recognised for its overlapping horizontal boards, which create a classic and familiar appearance. This design suits a wide range of garden styles and property types. Compared to close-boarded fencing, waney lap panels are lighter in construction, making them easier to handle and install, particularly for longer fencing runs or DIY projects.

Each 6×4 waney lap fence panel is treated using a Dipped Gold process, offering protection against rot, fungal decay, and insect attack. This treatment makes the panel suitable for outdoor use in typical British weather conditions and helps extend the working life of the timber. While timber will naturally weather and soften in colour over time, the treatment ensures the panel remains structurally sound for everyday garden use.

One of the main advantages of this panel is flexibility. Although supplied as a 6×4 waney lap fence panel, it can also be manufactured to alternative widths where required. This is particularly useful when posts are not set at standard centres or when fencing runs include awkward gaps or changes in ground level. Ordering the correct width helps achieve a cleaner finish and avoids unnecessary cutting on site.

The 6×4 height makes this panel especially suitable for use with gravel boards, raised ground levels, or where a lower fence line is preferred. Many customers automatically order taller panels when a 6×4 panel would provide the correct finished height once installed. Choosing the appropriate size helps create a more balanced appearance and can also offer better value.

The 6×4 waney lap fence panel is suitable for use with both timber and concrete posts and can be installed as part of a new fencing project or used as a replacement panel. Its lighter construction makes it easier to lift and position, while still delivering a neat and consistent boundary when installed correctly with suitable fixings.

Visually, waney lap fencing offers a softer and more open appearance than close-boarded alternatives. The horizontal boards allow small gaps for airflow, which can help reduce wind pressure on the fence line. This makes the 6×4 waney lap fence panel a practical option for more sheltered gardens or areas where full privacy is not essential.

For customers who require greater strength, privacy, or durability, we also offer feather edge fence panels as an upgrade option. Featheredge fencing features vertical close-boarded construction and heavier framing, making it better suited for exposed locations or areas where a more solid fence line is required. Many customers choose waney lap fencing for budget-friendly runs and featheredge panels where extra robustness is needed.

All 6×4 waney lap fence panels are manufactured with care and checked before leaving our workshop to ensure consistent build quality. While this panel is designed as a lighter-duty option, we still focus on producing fencing that is reliable, well finished, and fit for purpose.

If you’re looking for a traditional fencing solution that offers good value, flexible sizing, and a neat garden appearance, the 6×4 waney lap fence panel is a practical and dependable choice. With Dipped Gold treatment, made-to-measure options, and compatibility with gravel boards and a wide range of installations, it provides a straightforward solution for many fencing projects.
