Seamless linear view via flush countersunk fixings
Maintain a clean, premium garden aesthetic free of unsightly protruding hardware. Thanks to the advanced self-tapping drill points and engineered countersunk heads, you can drive the heavy-duty screws flush into the square battens with total ease. To guarantee an immaculate finish, pre-drilling is highly recommended to eliminate the risk of timber splitting. The heavy-duty 5mm x 6cm stainless steel screws ensure maximum structural pull-out resistance and longevity.
Pro-Tip for Low Post Layouts:
Even for a modern low fence, positioning foundation posts at a maximum spacing of 80 to 100 cm is essential. Because solid 4x4 cm square profiles carry significantly more mass than standard flat slats, maintaining a tight post center prevents any structural warping over time and secures a razor-straight alignment. The linear lengths of your supplied timber will dictate your final post layout, as every batten end must terminate flush over a structural post face. We always calculate the optimal length combinations from our central warehouse stock to ensure your kit arrives with virtually zero cutting waste on-site.
Tradesman Trick: Always stretch a string line tautly across your garden plot before digging. For low-level boundaries, keeping your posts in absolute perfect linear alignment is vital as any variance is instantly noticeable against your hardscaping.
Solid Privacy Fencing & Contrast with EPDM Liner
Because these low-level timber battens are installed with a 2 cm spacing interval, we supply a matte black EPDM backing membrane completely free of charge with your order. This establishes 100% complete privacy for your courtyard or garden border, creates a stunningly deep black shadow contrast, and delivers excellent noise-dampening properties for your luxury Ipê square batten fencing 4x4 acoustic insulation. This sleek dark background allows the warm, rich tones of the low-profile Ipé hardwood to stand out intensely for an optimized 3D visual effect.
Privacy membrane screening for your fence
You receive the EPDM backing membrane absolutely free with this low garden run, supplied as part of our ipe-fencing-double-sided-battens-epdm all-in-one complete kit.
Important Notice: Timber Storage & Care
While solid hardwood battens are exceptionally stable, timber can still bow or cup prior to fixing if it dries out unevenly. Once installed, the low-profile timber is locked securely into position and exhibits virtually zero movement. However, uninstalled timber remains loose and reactive to the environment. Following proper storage protocols before assembly is therefore vital to your low fence project's success:
- Install within 8 days of delivery: This will prevent the loose square battens from twisting out of square. Higher ambient temperatures accelerate this risk. If a few battens do show slight natural movement before fixing, any minor curvature can easily be straightened out under hand pressure during assembly to guarantee a perfectly straight low boundary line.
- Keep tightly strapped and wrapped in plastic: Do not cut the heavy-duty shipping bands or remove the protective plastic sheeting until the exact moment you are ready to fix those specific boards.
- Store in a cool, sheltered spot: Do NOT store your raw timber package under direct, scorching sunlight or inside a hot, unventilated garage. Avoid using sticker-stacking strips (oplatten); keeping the boards tightly packed flat against one another is the best way to maintain their straightness.
Preserving the Rich Colour of Your Low Battens with Hardwood Oil
Do you want to maintain the luxurious, deep nut-brown character of your premium low-profile Ipé timber? Treating the boards with our premium UV-resistant hardwood oil will establish a powerful barrier against solar rays and stave off the wood's natural weathering process. If left un-oiled, your low garden border will naturally transition over roughly 6 months into a highly distinguished, chique uniform silvery patina.

Installation: Step-by-Step Low Fence Guide
Installing a low square batten fence requires meticulous craftsmanship. Because these solid timber battens are 4 cm thick, they possess significantly more structural mass than standard thin slats. Please follow these low-profile trade instructions carefully:
- The Foundation: Set your timber posts into the ground to a minimum depth of one-third of their overall length. Pour water over the backfilled soil or aggregate to fully compact the earth around the base, creating a perfectly stable framework for your low border.
- Applying the EPDM Liner: Tension the premium EPDM privacy membrane tightly against the low structural posts. Secure it firmly in place using stainless steel staples or small exterior-grade screws.
- The Base Batten: Begin at ground level by fixing the first timber batten. This starting row must be 100% perfectly level. This is the single most critical step of the low-level assembly; if the base batten is slightly out of plumb, the entire vertical run of the fencing will be compromised.
Landscaper Pro-Tip for Low Borders:
Install your Azobé foundation posts slightly higher than the intended final height of the low fence. Once you have fixed your uppermost timber batten, you can neatly trim the tops of the posts flush to length. Always stretch a string line taut before digging to maintain absolute linear precision.
Maintenance & Colour Retention: Low Fence Hardwood Oil Protection
While premium Ipé hardwood is naturally robust and durable, exposure to solar UV rays gradually breaks down the wood's surface pigments, leading to typical bleaching. Without protective oils, these low-profile nut-brown battens will transition over roughly 6 months into a beautifully uniform, chique silvery-grey patina. Do you want to preserve the original luxurious colour tones and maintain a like-new designer aesthetic for your low garden feature? If so, following a proper periodic oil treatment routine is essential.
Step-by-Step Oiling Guide (The Professional Method):
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the low-profile timber battens are completely dry before starting. Exterior oil will fail to penetrate or adhere to damp hardwood.
- Light Sanding: To achieve the ultimate premium finish, we strongly recommend giving the 4x4 cm battens a very light sand over their exposed faces using a fine 120-grit sandpaper.
- Oil Application: Utilizing a professional spray bottle or pump sprayer, apply a thin, even coat over the low timber runs. Allow the nourishing oil to penetrate deep into the grain for 15-20 minutes.
- Wiping Down: Work any excess pooled surface oil evenly across the grain using a clean, lint-free cloth, and let it dry. Job done!
When should you oil the timber?
Treat all timber profiles during the installation process. Always apply oil to all 4 sides of the wood, including the rear face. Once fully assembled, apply the final finishing coat to the visible face of your low-profile fencing. Repeat this treatment periodically to ensure the timber grain remains perfectly saturated. Newly oiled wood showcases a beautiful satin sheen; once this finish shifts to a matte appearance, it is time to re-oil your low garden border.
- ✨ UV Protection: Safeguards your low feature wall against sun bleaching and prevents micro-surface splitting caused by intense UV exposure.
- ✨ Dirt & Water Repellent: Creates a protective barrier so atmospheric grime and garden pollution cannot grip the oiled square battens.
- ✨ Warranty Compliance: Regular structural maintenance with our premium wood oil preserves the high-end aesthetic value of your low boundary screen. Hardwood requires hydration and nourishment just like your skin. We cannot offer a product warranty on timber that has been allowed to naturally grey out. Remember to take step-by-step photos during your build to document your successful low fence installation process.
Preserve the Elite Luxury Hue of Your Premium Low-Profile Ipê Hardwood
Structurally, premium Ipê hardwood is entirely maintenance-free. However, if you wish to retain that breathtaking, warm architectural timber tone and block the natural silvering process, treat the wood periodically during the first 2 years with our **specially engineered hardwood oil**. This deeply nourishes the grain, making your low boundary wall completely water and dirt repellent. Following this seasonal oiling routine is required to maintain your structural warranty support.

Landscaper Pro-Tip: How to Effortlessly Straighten Bowed Battens
When installing a screw-fixed low batten fence, you have the immense advantage of the screw biting directly into a solid timber foundation post. A heavy 4x4 cm batten can hold considerable natural lateral tension if bowed, but utilizing the proper technique allows you to force it razor-straight against the frame.
Please Note: A standard cordless drill/driver is not suitable for this specialized task. An Impact Driver (such as the Makita DTD series) is essential: under structural load, this tool utilizes a rapid internal rotational hammering mechanism to drive the heavy-duty fixing home with unmatched downward torque.
The Trade Screw-Fixing Method:
- Step 1: Secure the timber batten firmly to your first foundation post. Crucial: Always pre-drill to completely mitigate the risk of splitting your premium Ipê!
- Step 2: Move along to the next timber post. Always position the batten so that the natural bow curves outward towards you. As you drive the screw home, this natural outward crown will safely force the timber back flat against the post face. Drive the fixing home in one smooth action; stopping mid-way under heavy tension increases the risk of snapping the screw shank.
- Step 3: While holding the board firmly under tension (utilizing a heavy-duty speed clamp, a lever tool, or with the assistance of a second person), pre-drill and drive your stainless steel fixing straight home. The screw will permanently lock the batten into perfect, straight alignment across your low profile border.
