Installation Tips

Pre-drill pilot holes to prevent splitting during installation. Ensure that the timber is sufficiently dry before any cutting or fixing. When assembling, use galvanised screws to maintain resistance to corrosion, especially in outdoor environments. Always consider allowing for an expansion gap during installation.

Care and Maintenance

Regularly inspect the timber for signs of wear or damage, especially in high-moisture environments. Re-treat with an appropriate wood preservative every few years to maintain the integrity and appearance of the timber. Clean with a mild detergent and damp cloth to preserve its aesthetic.
