The 1.83M x 0.6M Privacy Square Trellis - Pressure Treated Brown is a substantial topper or low privacy screen. Measuring 1.83m wide by 0.6m 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. At 600mm high, the denser square pattern has enough depth to make a clear difference to overlooking while still remaining an open trellis rather than a solid panel. It is useful above lower fencing, around seating areas or where climbing plants are intended to add further seasonal screening.
The 600mm size is often chosen when the trellis needs to contribute to screening as well as decoration. Compared with the 300mm and 450mm versions, it creates a much larger exposed area above the fence, so the condition of the supporting posts becomes more important. It is also tall enough for plant growth to change the character of the boundary substantially once established.
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.
