Frequently Asked Questions
Nexfence is an Australian fencing system that combines real Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) tongue and groove boards with a steel post and rail frame — giving you the natural warmth of timber with the strength and low maintenance of steel.
Nexfence uses its own simple steel post and rail system. The timber boards slot in and are secured with just 4 screws either side — making installation fast, clean and straightforward.
Nexfence is the only system in Australia that delivers a genuine solid timber fence using a steel frame. There's no rotting posts, no concrete footings, no warping boards and no ugly brackets. It looks like a premium timber fence on both sides, but it's built to last like steel.
Not at all. The tongue and groove boards slot into the steel frame and are locked in with just 4 screws either side. It's fast and straightforward for both professional contractors and confident DIYers.
Kiln-dried Radiata Pine, constructed using Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) technology and treated with MicroPro® — a copper-based treatment that is safe for children, pets and the environment.
No. The CLT construction, tongue and groove profile, and surrounding steel frame work together to prevent warping and twisting — a common problem with traditional timber fencing.
Yes. Boards are supplied raw and unfinished, ready to accept any paint or timber stain to match your home or project.
It comes down to mass and continuity. The CLT timber boards are dense, with no gaps between them thanks to the tongue and groove profile. This solid, seamless wall of timber absorbs and blocks sound rather than letting it pass through. Combined with the rigid steel frame, the result is a fence with genuine acoustic performance — independently tested and verified. It's an ideal solution for homes near busy roads, schools, childcare centres and medium-density developments.
Standard panel height is 1800mm, post centres are 2250mm, and the steel post size is 65×65mm. The total fence footprint is just 65mm wide — ideal for tight boundary situations.
