Fencing Posts and Panels

hello

I desperately need to fence in my garden as at present I have a drop of about 6ft at the bottom so it's not at all practical for my 1 year old. Does anyone know of any good deals on fencing at the moment?

Thank you

Kerry;)

    Don't know of any specific deals, fencing tends to be a local kind of thing.
    What I can say is that fencing prices are soaring lately, £4 has just gone on the price of a 6foot*5foot panel in the last month. There are even more price increases in the pipeline next month, might be a good time to take the plunge before the increase.

    There's no such thing as a stupid question, and even if you disagree courtesy helps.

  • there's a sign up in my local homebase about a current shortage of fencing panels and products so i can agree with the above post about a price increase. the notice was something to with current supplies and having to go abroad to get new supplies in.

    Recently bought some from these guys in S Yorkshire:
    http://www.fabrino.co.uk/price_list.htm

    The prices were much cheaper than the local suppliers and the quality was much better ( the convex Paling fencing we bought was made with 19mm thick wood). They even made some panels to a non-standard height at no extra charge ( just charged as the next size up)
    Take a look to see what kind of price you should be paying, even if you are not getting it from them.

    Watch out for the really cheap vertilap panels that will break in the slightest wind.

    https://www.cpldistribution.co.uk - not the cheapest but they deliver as part of the cost (not sure of the minimum spend, but I've just had coal delivered in the past and it's free).

    Woby - could you advise which TP this is.
    Might make a trip down there if it's near me (Berkshire). Thanks.
