6×3 Waney Lap

6×3 waney lap fence panel

6×3 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 divisions, and areas where a subtle fence line is required without dominating the space.

The 6×3 waney lap fence panel is a popular choice for front gardens, side boundaries, patio edges, and raised areas where a full-height fence would be unnecessary. Its reduced height allows light and visibility to flow through the garden while still clearly defining boundaries and maintaining a neat, consistent appearance.

Waney lap fencing is known 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 housing to older homes. Compared to close-boarded fencing, waney lap panels offer a lighter construction, making them easier to handle and quicker to install, particularly for DIY projects or longer fencing runs.

Each 6×3 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. Although 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 6×3 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 where fencing runs include awkward gaps, changes in ground level, or existing structures. Ordering the correct width helps achieve a cleaner finish and avoids unnecessary cutting on site.

The 6×3 height makes this panel especially suitable for use with gravel boards or raised ground levels, where a taller panel may appear oversized. Many customers automatically select larger panels when a 6×3 panel would provide the correct finished height once installed. Choosing the appropriate size results in a more balanced appearance and can also offer better value.

The 6×3 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 tidy 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 6×3 waney lap fence panel a practical option for more sheltered gardens or locations where full privacy is not essential.

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

All 6×3 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 6×3 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 garden and boundary applications.
