SLAT FENCING
PERTH

“Slatted fencing” refers to a fence built from multiple evenly spaced slats (boards or battens) — usually horizontal, but sometimes vertical or custom-arranged — rather than solid panels or traditional paling boards.

At Half Price Lattice, slatted fences can be built in different styles — horizontal, vertical or custom — and with various materials (typically timber, though plastic or alternate materials may be available depending on the design).

You can also choose slat width, spacing, and finish to suit your home’s aesthetic.

Modern, stylish appearance — Slatted fencing offers a clean, contemporary look that can update and enhance a home’s exterior.

Privacy with airflow and light — The spacing between slats allows light and air through, creating a more open, airy feel while still offering screening and boundary definition.

Ventilation and garden-friendly — Because of slat spacing, gardens and outdoor spaces benefit from better light, airflow and ventilation — helpful in hot climates or for plant growth.

Customisation and flexibility — Slatted fences can be tailored to fit different garden shapes, slopes or irregular boundaries, and slat spacing can be adjusted to balance privacy vs openness.

Relatively easy maintenance and repairability — Individual slats can be repaired or replaced if damaged, instead of replacing entire panels.

Yes — slatted fences offer good ventilation and airflow, which works well in warmer climates like Perth. The ability to adjust spacing also helps maintain airflow while providing shade and some privacy. Additionally, using quality treated timber or suitable materials helps with durability in sun and weather. (Based on general benefits of slatted fencing adapted for local climates.)

Slatted fencing offers a balance: with closer spacing of slats, you can get substantial privacy while retaining some light and airflow. However, because of the gaps, it will rarely be as private as a fully solid fence. This trade-off is part of the contemporary, airy feel that many homeowners prefer.
