This 6ft x 3ft Waney Lap Fence Panel is a budget friendly way to tidy up a boundary without overcomplicating the job. At 3ft high it’s ideal for front gardens, low runs between spaces, or anywhere you want a clear edge without blocking too much light. Waney lap panels are a traditional overlap style, so they suit most UK gardens and are a sensible choice for replacing older lap panels like for like.
We manufacture these fence panels in-house at East Coast Fencing. They’re pressure treated for outdoor use and finished with a weather capping strip along the top edge to help shed rain. The overlap design uses horizontal boards that sit over each other, which gives good coverage for the money and a familiar look along a run. It’s the sort of panel that does the job well when you want a straightforward fence line at a sensible price.
For the best result, set your posts straight and keep the bays consistent. Low fencing still looks scruffy if the posts wander or the ground clearance varies from panel to panel. Keep the bottom of the panel clear of the ground so it isn’t sat in wet soil, and avoid piling mulch or gravel up against the timber over time. If the garden slopes, stepping the run is usually neater than forcing panels down to follow the ground.
This panel can be fitted with either timber or concrete posts, depending on the look and the conditions. Timber posts keep a traditional all-wood finish, while concrete posts can be a practical choice where you want a more rigid structure. If you’re choosing posts at the same time, see our fence posts, including wooden fence posts and concrete fence posts.

Installed level with a small clearance at the base, this 6ft x 3ft panel gives a tidy, traditional boundary line that keeps costs under control.
