This 6ft x 4ft Waney Lap Fence Panel is a sensible, budget friendly option for everyday garden boundaries. At 4ft high it offers good screening for side runs and shared boundaries while keeping the fence line from feeling too imposing. It’s also a popular size for replacing older overlap panels, as it often matches existing layouts and post centres.
Made in-house by East Coast Fencing, this panel is pressure treated for outdoor use and finished with a weather capping strip along the top edge. Waney lap is a traditional overlap style, using horizontal boards lapped over each other to provide coverage at a sensible price. The brown finish gives a familiar, warm look that blends well with most gardens.
Good installation makes a big difference to how the finished run looks. Set posts straight, keep bays consistent, and allow a little clearance so fencing panels sit comfortably without being forced. Keep the base of the panel off the ground and avoid letting soil or gravel build up against it over time. If the ground slopes, stepping the fence line is usually the neatest approach and helps avoid awkward gaps.
This panel can be used with either timber or concrete posts. Timber posts keep the fence looking traditional, while concrete posts can be a practical upgrade on older boundaries. If you’re choosing posts, see our fence posts range, including wooden fence posts and concrete fence posts. For other heights and matching panels, browse waney lap fence panels.
If you want a traditional overlap panel that keeps the job affordable and straightforward, this 6ft x 4ft brown waney lap panel is a reliable choice.
