The 1.5m x 125x22mm 2EX Feather Edge Board - Pressure Treated Brown is an individual tapered timber board for building traditional closeboard fencing from separate components. Measuring 1.5m long and sold as a 125 x 22mm 2EX feather edge board, it is intended for medium-height closeboard fencing and bespoke screening where 1.2m boards are too short but full 1.8m boards are not required. Unlike a pre-made panel, loose feather edge lets the fence be built around the actual length and post positions of the boundary.
Feather edge boards are fixed vertically and overlapped along their edges so the finished run forms a continuous timber face. The overlap is important: placing the boards edge-to-edge would leave gaps as timber moves and weathers. Fix them to a suitable horizontal framework such as cant rails where that construction method is being used, and keep the top line consistent with a string line rather than judging each board separately.
The 1.5m length sits between lower decorative fencing and full-height privacy fencing. That makes it useful when the required board height is driven by an existing boundary, a stepped run or a design that intentionally leaves more openness above the fence.
The brown pressure-treated finish gives new timber a darker, warmer starting colour while providing preservative protection for exterior use. It is not a paint coating, so grain, knots and treatment shade can vary naturally and the colour will weather after installation.
A wooden gravel board can be used below a timber closeboard run where the design calls for a replaceable barrier between the vertical boards and ground-level moisture. The posts and rails still need to be selected to suit the height and spacing of the particular fence. Our wooden fence posts range provides compatible timber support options, but post length should be chosen from the complete fence arrangement rather than from board length alone.
Choose this board when the specified length matches the fence you are actually building or repairing. If you are calculating quantities for a new run, our feather edge fence calculator can help estimate the number of boards and other components required. Other board lengths and treatment colours are available in the feather edge boards range.
