A great decking idea for new decking or to enhance your existing deck is to use deck panels to surround the decking. All of our metal deck panels will add style to your garden, as well as providing practical railing. We stock two main types of metal panels, those which are suitable for fixing to a metal bolt down post and those which can be screwed to timber posts and hand rails. There is a selection of different styles to suit all tastes!

The screw fix panels are available in two elegant designs and come in a pack of four 280mm wide pieces, which will create an 1130 (W) x 770mm panel when fixed to the timber posts. The bolt down panels, which are available in three stylish designs, come in one piece that measures 1130 (W) x 813mm.

All of these panels are zinc plated, powder coated and are available in black and silver. For more decking ideas and expert advice visit our project centre or one of our eight branches today. 

At AVS Fencing we believe in sustaining long and existing partnerships and due to this concept, we decided to assist Contractor Lorrie Barker of Garden Landscapes of Pulborough West Sussex, with his garden display at this years Hampton Court Flower Show. We supplied Lorrie with some of our quality decking which he used as part of his Japense themed Garden and we are very happy to announce that Lorrie won a gold medal for his display! 

The garden was inspired by Konpira-san, a mountain and Shinto shrine in Kagawa, Japan. There are 1368 steps leading from the base of the mountain to the shrine above. The ukijima (floating islands) evoke the islands of the Seto sea when viewed from the top of the mountain, which are represented in the garden by our decking.

For those of you who haven’t heard about the Hampton Court Flower Show you should know that the (RHS) Royal Horticultural Society arranges a number of shows including those at Hampton Court and Chelsea, which are well known events now part of the social calendar. Here one can see all the latest trends and gain great design ideas for the garden. These shows also offer a chance for garden designers and landscapers to showcase some of their best work. 

There is always the opportunity to meet in person the personalities and garden designers who are well reported, with some great BBC television coverage introduced by presenters Joe Swift and Rachel de Thame. 

As well as the decking we supplied for this garden, AVS Fencing Supplies provide much more with a wide range of products available via our comprehensive on-line shop; items include Garden Fence Panels, Garden Decking, Railway Sleepers & Garden Gates and all of this can be purchased online and with the added extra benefit of free delivery! (subject to area & min order value).

Waiter, there's volcanic ash in my soup. I know, it's a no-fly zone! Oh dear, we couldn't resist a joke, especially as the worst is now over.
