  • How to strengthen a fence panel so it lasts Years longer.
    In this video I will show you how to make a fence panel stronger (reinforce a fence panel).
    I've got 6 fence panels to replace so before fitting them I am going to strengthen them all so that they last years longer than normal.
    These particular fence panels are basic ones so strengthening them will help their lifespan and make the fence panels more sturdy.
    When it's very windy there is a lot of pressure on the fence panel, this will make the fence panel stronger and make the fence panel last longer. So if your fence panel has blown down you can try to strengthen it, or if you buy a new fence panel then strengthen it first before installing.
    Hope this helps someone out there.

    The first part of the fence to rot will probably be the top rim along the very top of the fence as can be seen on your old panels so it’s a good idea to brush some varnish Along the top edges as they weather first .
    Now they will last a lot longer

    In my experience its not those vertical battens that fail over time, its the horizontal battens top and bottom that fail causing the panel to bow in wind and then break. So I would say your idea is very good but doing the horizontal battens would be a good idea too.

      Yeh put in as many as possible! 😎

      The vertical battens sandwich the horizontals. Some panels have vertices on both sides opposite each other. I always buy these and then pre drill and put a screw into them so it holds the horizontals tighter. They last much longer then

    Excellent video. Any advice on the panels where the wood is vertical and the batons horizontal? I think they're called feather edge panels. Thank you. ❤️

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  2 роки тому +1

      Guess the same thing applies but I think they may be stronger anyway.

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  Рік тому +1

      Can’t remember but just make sure it’s smaller than the screws that you use. And use galvanised screws so they don’t rust. Really does help strengthen cheap fence panels

    Will it not cause cracks in the boards though?

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  2 роки тому +2

      No, that's why you always drill pilot holes, stops the wood splitting.

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  2 роки тому

      Just measure the width of the fence panel then get some screws which are shorter than that, and make sure they are external rustproof screws. Any small drill bit is fine, it's just a pilot hole to stop the wood splitting.

    That is plasterboard/drywall screws. Not designed for out door use. The nails will last longer than the screws.

    As a fencing contractor of 30 years we never recommend these panels they are cheap and don't last and a few screws is not going to help.

    • @philokeefe7960
      @philokeefe7960 2 роки тому +1

      Haha, totally agree - all these waney panels are a bit flimsey but at least get ones with 10 vertical batons - and a 50 mil horizontal one side top and bottom is good, you can wizz some gold screws in to stiffen it up - pilot holes? Nah.

    • @argonaut6386
      @argonaut6386 2 роки тому

      Depends on how well you install it. I've done my own including posts and they have outlasted the ones my neighbour had put in by 'A professional fencing company' at the same time They've been up for over ten years and still rock solid. Theirs were replaced three years ago included posts as they had concreated them in and not angled the top of the concrete to allow water run off.
