Paling Fence
For homeowners considering a paling fence, New Zealand’s variable climate and aesthetic preferences offer several material options, each with distinct advantages. Traditional timber paling fences, typically built from H4-treated pine or hardwoods like kwila, provide a classic, natural look at an affordable price but require regular staining or oiling every few years to prevent weathering.
For those seeking minimal upkeep, composite paling fences—crafted from recycled timber-plastic blends—are a durable, low-maintenance alternative, though they come at a higher initial cost

Aluminium Fence
An aluminium fence is a modern, low-maintenance fencing solution ideal for New Zealand’s coastal and urban environments. Unlike traditional timber or paling fences, aluminium is rust-proof, lightweight, and durable, making it perfect for areas exposed to salt air, heavy rain, or strong winds.
Available in sleek, powder-coated finishes (such as black, white, or woodgrain effects), it offers a contemporary aesthetic that complements both residential and commercial properties.
Post and Rail Fence
A post and rail fence offers a classic, open-boundary solution that's particularly well-suited to New Zealand's rural and semi-rural landscapes. This traditional fencing style, typically built from durable H4 or H5-treated pine or hardwoods like oak and kwila, features sturdy vertical posts connected by horizontal rails to create a simple yet effective barrier. It's an excellent choice for farm boundaries, large sections, paddocks, or as an attractive front fence where maintaining visibility is important.
​
The design is naturally cost-effective for large areas since it uses fewer materials than solid fencing options, while its open structure allows wind to pass through easily, making it particularly suitable for exposed sites. Whether for practical agricultural use or aesthetic boundary definition, post and rail fencing remains a versatile and enduring choice for Kiwi properties.
Slatted Fence
A slatted fence offers a stylish, contemporary boundary solution that balances privacy with airflow, making it increasingly popular in urban and coastal areas across New Zealand.
Typically constructed from vertical or horizontal timber, composite, or metal slats spaced at precise intervals, this design creates visual interest while providing semi-privacy and wind filtration.
​
With the right material choice and professional construction, a slatted fence becomes a long-lasting, design-forward investment requiring minimal ongoing care.
Post and Wire Fence
The classic post and wire / post and batten fence (commonly configured as an 8-wire fence) remains the backbone of New Zealand's rural fencing, offering a practical and cost-effective solution for livestock containment and property boundaries.
This no-nonsense fencing system combines sturdy posts with evenly spaced high-tensile wires to create a durable barrier capable of withstanding New Zealand's challenging farm conditions.
​
Many contractors now offer tractor-mounted post drivers and wire-spacing tools to streamline the installation process for larger fencing projects.
