The 1.83M x 0.3M Privacy Square Trellis - Pressure Treated Brown is a compact fence-topper rather than a stand-alone screen. Measuring 1.83m wide by 0.3m high, it uses an approximately 50mm square lattice, so the openings are noticeably tighter than our traditional square trellis. That closer pattern is the main reason to choose privacy square trellis when you want more screening without replacing the boundary with a solid panel.
East Coast Fencing manufactures this panel from pressure-treated 16 x 38mm rough sawn trellis batten. The rough sawn finish is intentional: it gives the trellis a practical fencing-timber character rather than the smooth surface of planed decorative joinery. It adds a narrow band of tighter lattice above a boundary without increasing the visual weight as much as a taller trellis. This size is useful when the aim is to soften the top of a fence, support light climbing growth or make the boundary feel less exposed while retaining plenty of daylight.
The 300mm version is the one to choose when the existing fence is already close to the required finished height. It gives a compact screening strip without making the trellis the dominant part of the boundary. If you are deciding between 300mm and 450mm, the practical question is whether you mainly want a visual finish at the top or enough lattice depth for plants to establish across a more noticeable area.
The brown pressure treatment gives the timber a darker, warmer appearance that sits naturally alongside brown-treated fencing. Pressure treatment is applied for exterior use and improves the timber’s resistance to decay compared with untreated wood; the colour will still weather and vary naturally outdoors.
This size belongs to our privacy square trellis range. When fitting it above existing fencing, measure the actual span and confirm that the posts or framing can support the additional trellis before fixing. Keep the panel evenly supported rather than relying on a small number of fixing points, and use exterior-grade fixings appropriate for treated timber.
If the main purpose is simply to add height above a boundary, compare this denser pattern with the wider openings available in our fence topper trellis range. For customers who need complete visual privacy rather than filtered screening, a suitable product from the fence panels range may be more appropriate.
