FAQs
Can I cut this trellis to fit a smaller space?
Yes, the timber can be cut to size using a standard hand or circular saw. Remember to treat any cut ends with a wood preservative to maintain the pressure-treated protection.
Does this panel come with mounting hardware?
No, the panels do not include screws, brackets, or post fixings. You will need to purchase hardware suitable for your specific mounting surface.
Is the wood already painted or stained?
The wood is tanalised (pressure-treated), which gives it a natural green or brown hue. It is not painted, allowing you to apply your own exterior paint or stain if desired.
Can this trellis support heavy climbing roses?
Yes, the square lattice pattern is durable enough to support standard climbing plants and vines, provided the panel is securely anchored to a stable structure.
How long will the pressure treatment last?
The pressure treatment protects against rot and decay for many years. However, environmental factors like constant moisture or direct ground contact can affect longevity.
Is this panel suitable for direct ground contact?
While pressure-treated, it is best practice to keep the wood slightly elevated from the ground to prevent unnecessary water absorption.
Troubleshooting
The trellis feels unstable after mounting
Ensure that the trellis is secured to solid fence posts rather than just the fence panel itself using additional mounting brackets.
Wood color is fading over time
This is natural for outdoor timber. Apply a UV-resistant wood stain or oil to refresh the appearance and add a protective layer.
Splinters detected on the surface
As this is rough-sawn timber, use a medium-grit sandpaper to lightly smooth out any protruding wood fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the trellis is straightforward. As a fence topper, it should be securely fastened to the existing fence posts using galvanized screws or heavy-duty brackets to ensure it withstands high winds. When wall-mounting, use spacers to ensure the trellis sits slightly away from the masonry, which prevents moisture buildup against the wall. Maintenance is minimal; however, it is advised to apply a wood preservative or exterior-grade timber stain every two to three years to maintain the wood's color and extend its life span beyond the initial pressure-treatment period.
