The 1.83M x 1.2M Traditional Square Trellis Panel - Pressure Treated Brown is a medium-height climbing and screening panel, measuring 1.83m wide by 1.2m high. Its approximate 100mm square openings create a classic, open lattice that is well suited to climbing plants and decorative boundary work where daylight and airflow are more important than close privacy screening.
We manufacture this traditional square trellis at East Coast Fencing from pressure-treated 16 x 38mm rough sawn trellis batten. At 1.2m high, the panel provides a broad framework for plants and can be used where a more substantial open boundary is wanted. It offers definition and support but the approximate 100mm squares mean it should not be chosen for close privacy screening. Rough sawn timber has a visibly textured surface, so natural knots, grain, saw marks and small variations are part of the product rather than a smooth planed finish.
A 1.2m traditional trellis gives enough height for many climbing plants to spread before they reach surrounding structures. It also works as an open garden divider where a full fence would create too much enclosure. If privacy is likely to become important later, decide that now: swapping to a closer lattice after plants are established is far more disruptive than choosing the right pattern at the outset.
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.
The larger squares give stems room to pass through and make tying or training climbers straightforward. They also mean the panel remains visually open when plants are sparse or dormant. If you specifically want tighter screening, compare it with our privacy square trellis, which uses a closer square pattern.
For freestanding or taller screening work, the trellis needs suitable posts or framing because the lattice itself is not a structural fence post system. Plan where panel joints will fall and support the edges properly. See the full traditional trellis range for alternative heights.
