Designed and manufactured in Worcestershire, this traditional larchlap fence panel combines reliable performance with an attractive, timeless appearance, making it an excellent choice for creating secure and private garden boundaries.

Strong, Reliable Construction
Built with durability in mind, the Forest Heritage Lap Panel features a robust 38mm timber frame and four vertical strengthening battens positioned across the rear of the panel to provide excellent strength and stability. The fully framed construction is finished with a protective top panel cap, helping to improve rigidity while giving the fence a neat, finished appearance.
The timber is dip treated with a preservative to help protect against rot and fungal decay. With periodic re-treatment, the panel is backed by a 10-Year Anti-Rot Guarantee, providing long-lasting performance for domestic fencing projects.
