The Snowdon Timber Treated Fence Capping Rail is an essential accessory for homeowners and landscapers looking to protect their garden fencing from moisture-related decay. By covering the top edge of fence panels, this rail prevents water ingress, effectively extending the lifespan of your timber perimeter while providing a clean, professional aesthetic; however, it requires precise measurement and cutting to ensure a perfect fit across varying fence panel widths.

No, fixings are not included. Use exterior-grade wood screws appropriate for the thickness of the rail.
Yes, once the timber has thoroughly dried, you can apply an exterior-grade paint, stain, or wood oil.
Each rail is 1.83 meters in length. Please refer to the specific variant for width and thickness details.
Yes, any time you cut pressure-treated timber, you expose the non-treated interior. Always seal the cut end with a wood preservative.
These rails are designed for straight runs and are not flexible enough for curved or arched fence tops.
Always pre-drill pilot holes with a slightly smaller drill bit than your screw gauge before fastening.
Check the thickness of your existing fence panel; these rails are designed for specific profiles and may need slight modification or a shim if your fence is thinner.
Installation requires basic woodworking tools including a saw for trimming, exterior-grade wood screws, and a drill. Measure your fence panel width before cutting to ensure the rail fits snugly. It is recommended to pre-drill pilot holes to prevent the timber from splitting during installation. For long-term care, although the wood is pressure-treated, applying a high-quality exterior wood preservative or stain every two years will keep the rail supple and protected. If you cut the rail to a shorter length, always apply a brush-on end-grain preservative to the freshly cut surface to maintain the integrity of the pressure treatment.
