Store panels flat and off the ground before installation to prevent distortion, and allow them to acclimatise to site conditions for 24 to 48 hours if they have been transported in varied weather. The tanalised treatment is factory applied, so no additional preservative is required on cut faces during installation, though a brush-on end-grain preservative is recommended if panels are trimmed on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat height tanalised closeboard fence panel do I need for a 6ft fence?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou need the 6ft x 6ft panel.
