Installation advice
For a 95 cm fence with 91x21 mm section fitted edge to edge: allow 11 slats per linear metre. Pre-drill before screwing — use stainless steel 4x50 mm screws to ensure adequate penetration into the rails. Apply treatment to all faces before installation. Space the rails 40 to 50 cm apart to prevent the slats from bowing over the 95 cm height.
Gap between slats: the choice of gap affects both wind resistance and visual effect. A gap of 10 mm gives an almost solid appearance. Between 15 and 20 mm, wind resistance is reduced — recommended for long runs and exposed areas. Beyond 25 mm, the trellis effect allows light and sight lines through.
Maintenance and protection
Renew the wood stain or exterior oil every 2 to 3 years. On untreated pine and fir, deterioration accelerates significantly in damp or shaded areas. Douglas silvers without treatment but remains mechanically stable for several years. Check the lower ends of the slats every spring, as these accumulate the most moisture.
WoodUp tip
What to know before buying: this 95 cm slat is sold individually, compatible with the WoodUp 91x21 mm rails (ID 754). To calculate the number of slats required: total fence length divided by the width of one slat including its gap. The rounded pine (80x18 mm section) does not have the same section as the fir and douglas (91x21 mm): check compatibility if you are combining several references. Water-repellent treatment required before installation, on all faces.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between 60 cm and 95 cm slats for a garden fence?
The 60 cm slats are suited to low fences that mark a boundary without blocking the view. The 95 cm slats provide a more defined visual separation and greater privacy, without achieving the full screening of 120 or 175 cm slats.
Can 95 cm slats be combined with 60 cm slats for a decorative effect?
Yes. Alternating different heights creates an irregular picket effect common in English gardens. Plan for a rail at mid-height of the tallest slats to keep them straight.
Can this slat be used for a 95 cm gate?
Yes. The Woodup 100x120 cm gate kit uses 95 cm slats, or you can build your own gate using these slats with rails and a diagonal brace for rigidity.
Is rounded pine less durable than bevelled fir?
Both are made from natural untreated wood with comparable durability. The rounded profile of the pine offers a different decorative appearance but does not affect the mechanical strength of the slat.
How many rails are needed to support 95 cm slats?
Two rails minimum: one at approximately 10 cm from the bottom and one at 85 cm from the bottom. For areas highly exposed to wind, add a third central rail at 45 cm to stiffen the panel.
