Decorative Fence Panels
This Decorative Double Sided Slatted Fence Panel strikes the perfect balance between modern design and practical function, providing garden privacy while allowing natural light and colours to flow through.
Pressure treated green, these decorative fence panels are built to last but give a stylish look around your garden.
If you are changing from tradition lap panel fencing or closeboard fencing but keeping your existing fence posts, you will also need to purchase the Euro fence panel conversion kit. These are simply two battens, which are attached one either side of the Omega Lattice fence panel to make it slightly wider from the 1.80m wide to the standard 1.83m wide panel.
If you are searching for a fencing company in Kent to provide a sleek, architectural look for your outdoor space, Decorative Double Sided Slatted Fence Panels are the premier choice.
Often called Contemporary Slatted Fencing or Horizontal Screen Panels, this style has become the "go-to" for modern garden designs in areas like Sevenoaks, Tunbridge Wells, and Kings Hill.
What are Double Sided Slatted Panels?
Unlike traditional fencing that has a "good" side and a "bad" side, these panels are constructed with horizontal slats fixed to both the front and back in a staggered pattern. This creates a high-end, symmetrical look that is identical for both you and your neighbors.
Top Features for Modern Kent Homes
Total Privacy with Airflow: The staggered "hit and miss" layout of the slats means there are no direct lines of sight through the fence. However, air can still pass through the gaps, making these panels incredibly wind-resistant—a vital feature for properties on the breezy Kent coast or the North Downs.
Architectural Lines: The clean, horizontal shadows created by the slats help small gardens feel wider and provide a stunning backdrop for minimalist landscaping and architectural plants.
Premium Smooth Finish: These panels are typically made from planed-all-round (PAR) timber, offering a smooth, luxury feel that is far superior to rough-sawn garden fencing.
Noise Reduction: The double-sided construction creates a thicker panel which can help diffuse ambient noise, perfect for homes near busier roads in Maidstone or Dartford.
Durability: Pressure Treated for the South East
To ensure your investment lasts, our double-sided slatted panels are Pressure Treated. This process ensures the timber can withstand the UK’s damp winters and humid summers.
Fungal & Rot Resistance: The treatment protects the internal fibers of the wood, not just the surface.
Low Maintenance: While you can stain these panels to match a specific color scheme (like Slate Grey or Cedar), the pressure-treated finish means they can be left to age naturally to a beautiful silver-grey without losing their structural integrity.
Stainless Steel Fixings: Premium panels use stainless steel nails to prevent the "black streaking" often seen on cheaper fencing after a few years of Kent rain.
Because these panels are a premium product, precision is everything. A professional Kent fencing contractor will ensure that the horizontal lines are perfectly leveled across your entire boundary, even on sloping ground. Using concrete gravel boards is also highly recommended to keep these decorative slats from sitting in ground water, ensuring they look pristine for years to come.
