The 1.83M x 0.45M Slatted Trellis - Pressure Treated Brown is a compact horizontal screening strip, measuring 1.83m wide by 0.45m high. Instead of a square lattice, the battens run horizontally to give the panel a strong linear appearance and a different style of filtered screening.
East Coast Fencing manufactures this slatted trellis from pressure-treated rough sawn timber. At 450mm high, it creates a more visible band above a fence than the 300mm version while retaining an open appearance. It can also be used around raised beds or low structures where a linear timber finish is preferred. The surface is intentionally textured rather than smooth planed, so knots, saw marks, grain and small natural variations remain visible.
At 450mm, the slatted pattern has more visual presence than the 300mm version and provides a more useful area for light climbing growth. It is a good intermediate choice for customers who want the trellis to be clearly visible above the fence but do not need the deeper screening effect of 600mm or 750mm panels.
Brown pressure treatment gives this panel an immediately darker tone while protecting the timber for outdoor use. It is not a decorative paint finish: natural variation in colour, grain and knots remains visible and the shade will change as the timber weathers.
The horizontal format can support climbing plants, but it is also useful where the trellis itself is intended to be seen as part of the garden design. Fix plant growth as required rather than assuming every climber will naturally attach to horizontal timber. You can compare all sizes in our horizontal slatted trellis range.
When fitting above a fence, support the trellis from sound posts or suitable framing and use exterior-grade fixings. Check the finished height before work begins and remember that adding trellis increases the exposed area of the boundary. Other low-height designs are available under fence topper trellis.
