    Project InspirationDesigner Fence

    Designer Fence

    Designer Fence for Contemporary Coastal Living - Maraetai, Auckland

    This Auckland couple worked with a local construction company specialising in carpentry to design their luxury ocean-view home in the beautiful coastal town of Maraetai. Delighted with its sleek architectural lines and contemporary graphite finish, they came to us to source an attractive boundary fence to complement the look.

    Our Elite aluminium modular fencing in charcoal was their first choice with its flawless finish, simple push-together system, and outstanding strength and durability. However, the scale of the project meant they couldn’t quite stretch to aluminium, so a more affordable solution with a similar aesthetic was needed.

    Our sustainable radiata pine fences are supplied in a range of widths with a good choice of design and grain. The couple wanted a sleek, even finish on both sides of the fence so opted for one of our popular premium smooth decking timbers for the horizontal slats. To ensure their fence would stand the test of time, they chose H5 CCA treated posts and palings to provide extra strong protection from the elements, particularly surface groundwater. Keen to plan ahead, the couple followed current building code guidelines to ensure the fence would be tall enough for a later addition of a front yard pool. Their local PlaceMakers store in Pakuranga was more than happy to order in the longer 6M timbers required, which were sourced and delivered to the couple’s home within three days.

    Erecting the fence with our quality timbers was quick and problem free. Within a few days, the homeowners were able to add the finishing touches, electing to paint the smooth tactile panels with a Dulux Timbacryl Acrylic Paint in Low Sheen Ebony. A high-opacity self-priming paint, this product has been specifically designed to blend with both the natural environment and today’s popular building materials. The couple were impressed with its fast drying same-day recoat properties, its ability to expand and contract with the climate, and its excellent 10-year durability guarantee. Above all, they loved how it perfectly matched the graphite timber facade of their new designer home!

    From start to finish, the couple had nothing but praise for their local PlaceMakers store both in terms of timber quality, customer service, and advice. Their property now has the privacy and protection they needed with a boundary fence that perfectly complements the design and finish of their forever coastal home.
