High quality and practical counter rails, also known as backing, from our fencing range.

  • Mortise into the timber fence posts to provide a finishing top rail.
  • The top of the featheredge boards are then nailed to the counter rail which stops the top of the boards moving over time.
  • Provides a stable and solid base for the Capping to be secured down onto.
  • UC3 Pressure Treated for added durability

Description

Counter rails are used with traditional featheredge fencing for a secure and professional finish.

Installing counter rails to your new featheredge or closeboard fence is an effective way of protecting your fence from weathering. If not, over time without both capping and counter rails, water will get into the grain of the timber and result in damage or rot. The combination of counter and capping also helps achieve a professional finished look whilst helping to protect your fencing.

Did you know we only use Redwoods for our fencing range? Here’s why:

  • Naturally resistant to insects, decay and warping.
  • Strong and durable softwood.
  • Highly effective for external uses.
  • Other softwoods (such as Spruce) are more prone to warping, less attractive over time, and have a lesser life span.

UC3 Pressure Treated. To learn more about UC3 treatment see the WPA Guide →
