This 1.83m x 150mm wooden gravel board is a straightforward way to protect the base of your fencing. It sits under the fence panel and takes the brunt of damp soil, rain splashback and garden wear, helping to keep the bottom of the panel clear of the ground. The board is pressure treated and finished green for outdoor use, with a 150mm face and a 22mm thickness.
The 1.83m length is commonly chosen to suit standard panel bays, making planning and fitting simpler. It is also a handy size for smaller runs, repairs, and stepped fencing where you want to change levels neatly without long boards bridging uneven ground. If you are replacing existing boards, measure the bay width and check how the fence is fixed before ordering.
Most installs position the gravel board between the posts at ground level, with the fence panel sitting on top. Keeping the board just above the soil where possible helps it dry out. If the ground is uneven, step the boards and panels rather than trying to follow every dip. This usually gives a cleaner look and helps avoid gaps under the panels that can let pets through or catch debris.
Fix with exterior grade screws or nails into the posts at each end. Check the board is straight before fully tightening fixings, as a small bow can show up along the full fence line. Where the fence takes wind, adding a secure fixing through rails can help keep the bottom edge tight.
If you cut the board, treat the fresh cut end grain before fitting. For areas that get a lot of knocks from mowers or along public-facing boundaries, a concrete option can offer a tougher base.
