Fencing Gates in Swanley, Kent

If you're looking for something that'll keep the kids and dogs safely tucked away while keeping the world out, Close Board (or Feather Edge) is usually our first recommendation. It's the 'gold standard' for a reason. Each vertical board overlaps the next, creating a solid, sturdy barrier that stands up to the wind far better than the cheap, thin panels you'll find at big-box retailers. We use pressure-treated timber that's been properly 'tanalised' to resist rot, and we support it all with heavy-duty arris rails. Most homeowners we speak to in Swanley want something they won't have to think about for another fifteen years, and this is it. It looks smart, feels solid, and instantly boosts your home's kerb appeal.

Not everyone wants a solid wall of wood around their garden. If you've got a modern home or perhaps a smaller space where you don't want to block out all the light, Venetian or slatted fencing is a brilliant choice. These horizontal designs allow light to filter through, making your garden feel bigger while still giving you that sense of enclosure. They're incredibly popular right now for a reason—they turn a simple boundary into a design feature. We can even install them as toppers for existing walls or to create a separate 'zone' in your garden for a hot tub or seating area. It's a contemporary look that really sets a property apart from the rest of the street.

There's nothing more annoying than a gate that sags, drags, or won't latch properly after a bit of rain. We hand-build our gates to measure because, let's face it, no two garden entrances are ever perfectly standard. Whether it's a side gate to keep your bins hidden or a pair of grand driveway gates to secure your home, we use high-quality ironmongery—proper hinges, latches, and bolts—that won't rust or fail. A good gate isn't just about security; it's the first thing people see when they arrive at your home. We can match your new gate perfectly to your fencing, ensuring a seamless, professional finish that makes your property feel secure and well-cared for.

How many times have you seen a fence leaning over because the posts have rotted at ground level? It’s a common sight, but it’s entirely avoidable. We use concrete gravel boards at the base of our fences to keep the timber off the damp earth, which practically doubles the life of the wood. Our posts are set deep into the ground using high-strength Postcrete, so even when the wind picks up across the Kent countryside, your fence stays exactly where it should be. We take pride in the 'invisible' parts of the job—the foundations and the fixings—because that's what makes the difference between a fence that lasts three years and one that lasts twenty.
