The 1.83M x 1.5M Privacy Square Trellis - Pressure Treated Brown is a tall privacy trellis for screening and climbing plants. Measuring 1.83m wide by 1.5m 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. The 1.5m height gives significantly more coverage than topper-sized trellis and is suited to areas where planting and screening are both important. The close square pattern can break up direct views, while the openings still allow light, airflow and stems to pass through.
A 1.5m privacy trellis should be treated as a tall panel with its own support requirements. The useful distinction from a 1.2m panel is the extra vertical coverage for both screening and climbing growth; the distinction from a full 1.83m panel is that it still leaves more openness above or below depending on how it is installed. This makes it useful where full-height coverage would feel too enclosed.
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.
For climbing plants, remember that the trellis is a support framework rather than a substitute for plant ties or pruning. The smaller squares give stems many contact points, while the open construction still allows airflow. Compare other styles in our main trellis panels range if privacy is less important than a more open decorative effect.
