Product Information
Full details
The Klikstrom Wood Gravel Board in brown is designed for homeowners and fencing contractors looking to extend the lifespan of their garden fence panels. By acting as a protective barrier between the soil and the timber fencing, it prevents rot caused by ground moisture and soil contact, ensuring your perimeter remains stable and attractive. While this board provides essential structural protection, it requires periodic maintenance with wood preservative to maintain its weather-resistant properties and color finish.

FAQs
Can I use these boards with any fence panel?
These boards are compatible with most standard wooden fence panels, provided they fit within your existing post system.
Does the board come pre-treated?
Yes, it is designed for outdoor use, but we recommend additional treatment to ensure long-term durability against specific local climate conditions.
Can this board be cut to size?
Yes, the board can be trimmed using a standard wood saw to fit specific gaps between posts.
How do I secure the board to the posts?
It is best secured using heavy-duty fence clips or by sliding it into pre-existing post grooves or brackets.
Is this product environmentally friendly?
It is made from wood, which is a natural, renewable resource, though it should be disposed of according to local waste regulations if it has been treated with chemical preservatives.
Troubleshooting
Board appears uneven or sagging
Check the stability of the fence posts and ensure the gravel board is properly supported by the ground or fixed securely to the posts.
Surface showing signs of grey weathering
Lightly sand the surface and reapply a wood preservative or stain specifically designed for exterior timber.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your fence posts are set at the correct distance to allow the gravel board to slide securely between the post channels or be fixed with brackets. Always ensure the board is level during installation to avoid unnecessary stress on the panels above.
Care Instructions:
