6×2 Waney Lap

6×2 waney lap fence panel

6×2 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 low-level boundaries, garden edging, and areas where a subtle divide is required without restricting light or visibility.

The 6×2 waney lap fence panel is the lowest height in the Waney Lap range, making it a popular choice for front gardens, lawn separation, raised beds, patios, and decorative fencing applications. It provides a clear boundary while keeping spaces open and visually balanced, particularly in smaller gardens or areas where taller fencing would feel overpowering.

Waney lap fencing is recognised for its classic overlapping horizontal boards, which create a familiar and tidy finish. This traditional design suits a wide range of property styles, from modern homes to older properties. Compared to close-boarded fencing, waney lap panels offer a lighter construction, making them easier to handle and quicker to install, especially for DIY projects or longer fence runs.

Each 6×2 waney lap fence panel is treated using a Dipped Gold process, providing 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 lifespan 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 key benefits of this panel is flexibility. Although supplied as a 6×2 waney lap fence panel, it can also be manufactured to alternative widths where required. This is particularly useful where posts are not set at standard centres, where fencing runs include awkward gaps, or where the panel is being used alongside gravel boards or raised ground levels. Ordering the correct width helps achieve a cleaner finish and avoids unnecessary cutting on site.

The 6×2 height makes this panel especially well suited to installations where a low fence line is preferred. It’s commonly used to separate lawns from borders, define patio areas, or provide structure within larger gardens without creating a closed-in feel. Many customers automatically opt for taller panels when a 6×2 panel would be more appropriate for the intended purpose.

The 6×2 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 to replace existing low-level fencing. Its lighter construction makes it easy to lift and position, while still delivering a neat and consistent boundary when installed correctly with appropriate fixings.

Visually, waney lap fencing offers a softer and more open appearance than close-boarded alternatives. The small gaps between the horizontal boards allow airflow through the fence line, helping to reduce wind pressure. This makes the 6×2 waney lap fence panel a practical choice for sheltered gardens or areas where full privacy is not essential.

For customers who require increased strength, privacy, or a more solid fence line, 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 where durability is the priority. Many customers choose waney lap fencing for decorative or budget-friendly runs and featheredge panels where robustness is needed.

All 6×2 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 low-level boundary, the 6×2 waney lap fence panel is a practical and dependable choice. With Dipped Gold treatment, made-to-measure options, and compatibility with a wide range of installations, it provides a straightforward solution for many garden and landscaping applications.
