Concrete Slotted Fence Post Blogs

AVS Fencing Supplies have some great offers on fence panels this November. Whether you need to replace one or two panels, or need to erect a whole new perimeter, AVS Fencing Supplies has the right fence panels for you.  To help you choose the perfect fence panel, here is a quick guide to the panels on offer.

Lap panels are a great all round fence panel which look attractive in any garden. We have reduced prices on 6’x6’ and 6’x5’ dip treated and pressure treated lap panels. Remember that pressure treated fence panels will, on average, give a longer life than the dip treated version. With this in mind, you may want to consider the long term cost of your panels as opposed to the immediate expenditure.

Alternatively, we also have our closeboard panels on offer, which are another popular fence panel choice. Closeboard panels are substantially stronger than lap panels, making them ideal for erecting in more exposed locations. They are easy to erect and, combined with slotted concrete posts, will last for years to come.

Closeboard panels are available both dip treated and pressure treated. If you choose to purchase closeboard panels, consider the matching closeboard gate to complete your garden fence, also available on offer throughout November.

Hurry, as these offers end 30^th November 2011. To order your fence panels visit one of our eight branches or buy online today for fast, free delivery^*.

Lots of people want a 6' high (1.80m) Fence and we all know that 6' fence panels are a best seller. However, what happens when you want to put a 6" (150mm) gravelboard underneath the fence panel to prevent it contacting the ground and rotting or holding back a little soil from a neighbouring garden?

The answer is that is the height will increase and you may not want a 6'6" or 1.95m high fence as you will need a longer more expensive post. Another negative reason for a taller fence is that it will also have more wind resistance making it prone to expensive storm damage, plus it may overshadow your garden.

The good news is that AVS Fencing have increased their range of 5' 6" fence panels and associated accessories, including concrete slotted fence posts which are becoming even more popular because they are long lasting and also the panel can be changed easily by lifting out and slotting in a new one.

Also, our concrete gravelboard is even better than the timber gravelboard, and can also slot snugly under the fence panel keeping it off the ground and holding back a little loose soil at the same time.
