Fencing across Strathfield Council

What we install in Strathfield

  • Timber fencing – treated pine paling, lapped and lap-and-cap on galvanised steel posts
  • Colorbond fencing – new boundary fences and replacements in 1.5 m to 2.4 m heights, any Colorbond colour, either sheet profile
  • Gates – Colorbond single and double gates, slat, louvre, timber, pool and sliding or automatic driveway gates
  • Slat and louvre screens – aluminium horizontal slat, vertical slat and louvre fences, screens and gates in any powder-coat colour

Ground, access and local conditions

Gently undulating clay; large established gardens and mature trees along boundaries.

  • Large Strathfield blocks mean long side boundaries – Colorbond in Monument or Woodland Grey, or lap-and-cap timber to match the Federation homes.
  • Heritage conservation areas cover much of Strathfield's older streets; front fences there follow period styles.
  • Slat and louvre gates are popular on the wider driveways.
