A better starting point
Timber fencing designed around the property.
Timber fencing brings a natural material and flexible construction system to Warrnambool homes. It can form a high-privacy side boundary, a welcoming picket frontage, an architectural batten screen or a gate designed as part of the same visual line.
The visible boards are only one part of a well-resolved timber fence. Accurate set-out, suitable post spacing, rail placement, ground clearance, corners, gates and transitions determine whether the boundary looks considered and functions properly. A fence should respond to the property rather than forcing one standard detail across every change in the site.
For replacement boundaries, the starting point is understanding what has failed and what the new fence needs to improve. For new homes, it is about coordinating the fence with levels, paths, utility zones, neighbouring lots and the home’s exterior palette. Warrnambool’s wind and coastal exposure also make site-specific material and construction choices important.
01
Paling privacy
A familiar and adaptable option for side and rear boundaries, where height, coverage and a clean line are priorities.
02
Picket character
A lighter front-boundary treatment that defines the property while keeping a visual connection to the street.
03
Batten detail
Vertical battens create rhythm, contemporary screening and a refined finish for courtyards, entries and feature boundaries.
Real project detail
How Quality Timber Fencing Comes Together
A world-class result is not created by surface styling alone. It comes from understanding the site, setting out accurately and resolving the small transitions that determine whether the completed project feels deliberate.

Planning Your Timber Fence
Boundary purpose
Decide whether the fence is primarily for privacy, separation, street definition, wind moderation, screening or a combination.
Levels and top line
Changes in ground level influence whether the fence steps, follows a gradient or meets retaining and structures.
Gates and access
Gate width, opening direction, clearance and pathway alignment should be resolved before the adjoining fence is finalised.
Finish and outlook
Consider board profile, spacing, visible faces and how the fence will be experienced from both properties.

Straight answers
Timber fencing questions.
Every block is different, but these answers establish the practical issues to discuss before a site-specific scope is confirmed.
Which timber styles do you build?
Dalton Fencing builds paling, picket and batten fencing, as well as gates and connected timber boundary elements.
Can timber fencing work on sloping ground?
Yes. The layout can be stepped or otherwise planned around changes in level, depending on the gradient and desired top line.
How do I choose between paling and battens?
Paling fencing generally prioritises full privacy and value. Battens are often selected where architectural rhythm, controlled spacing or a feature finish is important.
Can a gate match the fence?
A gate can be planned with the same timber language so its frame, infill, height and alignment feel integrated.
Do you replace existing timber fences?
Replacement work can be discussed after reviewing the existing boundary, access and what the new fence needs to achieve.
