I want to know about your composite fencing experiences

Does anyone have it?

How does it stack up against traditional wooden fencing?

Is it durable / easy to maintain?

I live on the side of a hill with zero shelter from the elements, so the winds can be a bit fierce

Interested in hearing from anyone who has it

I will make my next thread about something frisky I promise

I've no knowledge or advice but what I can provide is a wind test afterwards to check its sturdiness

I'll invite all forumites for the grand unveiling

There's enough hot air in here to test even the strongest structures

How do you think Pisa ended up with a leaning tower?

Where I live is incredibly windy, all of the time and most people here use alternating wooden slat fencing as its not a solid structure, is fairly environmentally friendly and you grow plants through it, which looks nice especially in a place where everything gets blown over!

I feel like the last statement is untrue. But I now fully expect you to prove me wrong.

Sorry Bussy, I wish I could help with the fence, but our wind is contained by walls here.

Without wishing to sound thick, what is alternating wooden slat fencing?

I need solid and high fencing cos my dog is a lunatic and so is next doors

I agree. Solid structure offers too much resistance. Trees and hedges are best, but not instant fixes. Put up something with gaps and grow something on the inner side.

The main thing if it’s windy is the uprights that go in the round, don’t skimp on them, I’d say a minimum would be 4x4 timber, one third of the post should be concreted in the ground.

At the minute all the posts and bases are concrete with solid wooden panels between

All are in place and upright, but some are in better condition than others

I need to replace 28 panels in total if I do them all

I like the look of the slatted ones, but they wouldn't be an option cos of the narky mutts

Dogs can't get through the tiny slat gaps ?

They're totally dog proof because no gaps to get through ... just the wind does

But they can see each other (I assume) and then it turns into The Great British Bark Off

You can only see through it at certain angles but no very far but easily sorted by filling in with an extra slat?

They can hear and smell each other, regardless of seeing through gaps. You won't stop the barking, only the wind.

It works fantastically well in exceedingly windy places (why it's so common around here!)

I have a 6'6" wooden fence around my garden . Great for when I'm in the hot tub. Keeps the wind down and gives privacy for when the fun starts.

You can just let rip in the hot tub... no need to keep the wind down!! The bubbles are great camouflage
