Atmospheric and sleek Ipe slatted timber fence in a compact urban garden, providing privacy and a contemporary luxury feel

Fence 7 cm

"One fence, two styles: The perfect bespoke solution for us and our neighbours!"⭐⭐⭐⭐★ (4.4 / 5)"Working together with our neighbours, we chose a modern slatted fence with completely hidden fixings. What impressed us most was the flexibility to tailor each side: our neighbours opted for 9 cm wide boards, while we preferred the sleeker look of the 7 cm slats. The company confirmed this was no problem at all. As a result, both households achieved the exact aesthetic they wanted for their gardens. We are absolutely thrilled with the bespoke finish and the high quality of the timber!"

"Brilliant Refit: Our old concrete fence is now a luxury hardwood wall!"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"After years of looking at a standard timber-and-concrete fence, we wanted a fresh, modern look. The Refit solution was perfect for us as the original concrete posts could stay in place! We simply clad the old fence with premium 9 cm wide hardwood boards. Following the expert's tip, we painted the posts and backboards black first, which creates a stunning modern depth behind the slats. All necessary materials were included in the kit. Our garden has had a complete high-end makeover!"

Bar table

Last summer, I tackled my entire back garden. I ordered a roofing, and for the decoration in my roof, I had a bar made, and placed a bar table. I have selected a table top of 8 cm thick, with a high base, so that this table serves as a bar table. I have already spent many pleasant days and evenings at this table. I have already placed bar stools at the table, but these are unfortunately not shown in these photos.

At Hardwood Discount I ordered a veranda with different sizes. The standard roof did not fit in my garden. For Hardwood Discount it was no problem to make a roof with the sizes that were suitable for my garden. The beauty of this roof is that it is made with mortise and tenon joints. The floor is finished with Ipe decking, screwed invisibly. The steel doors to close the roof are on order. The advantage is that everything is ordered at Hardwood Discount.

Ipé Slatted Wall for Garden Structure

"Easy mounting, stunning result" ⭐⭐⭐⭐★ 4,8/5 As you can see in the photos, we installed the boards from the bottom up to ensure the cleanest possible finish at the top of our structure. It worked out brilliantly. Installing from the bottom up is definitely doable. For the first section, however, it’s advisable to work in a team of three to fix the first two rows in one go. After that, it’s easy enough for two people. The tip to place clips at the butt joints (end connections) as well was worth its weight in gold! Otherwise, we wouldn’t have realised until halfway through or at the very end... and the lines wouldn’t have stayed as neat over time. For the best result, we lightly sanded the slats, wiped them down, and then treated them with hardwood oil. We opted for a dark oil, which gives the wood an even more beautiful and warmer colour. We are absolutely delighted with the final result!" – Otto S, Kensington London Hardwood discount  Thank you for the detailed review! Indeed, it's not just our Ipé oil that is suitable. Our oil has a low pigment content; however, if you choose an oil with a higher pigment concentration, the wood will take on a darker tone. This is exactly the kind of personal touch you can add to your own project. Enjoy your new structure – the final result looks truly stunning!"
