Timber Hoarding Timber Horizontal Rail 100mm x 50mm x 3000mm Long
Build the strongest possible backing for your site fencing with our 100mm x 50mm Timber Hoarding Rails. Designed for sites exposed to high winds or requiring maximum structural rigidity, this upgraded rail profile creates a formidable "skeleton" for your hoarding system.
Measuring 3000mm (approx 10ft) in length, these rails are robust enough to minimise bowing and flexing, ensuring your perimeter stays perfectly aligned and secure throughout the project duration.
Key Features & Benefits
Superior 4" x 2" Profile: The 100mm x 50mm dimension offers significantly more timber volume than standard rails. This extra depth provides enhanced resistance to bending under wind loads, making it the preferred choice for high-risk or long-term installations.
Larger Fixing Surface: The 100mm face provides a substantial target area for nailing or screwing your Plywood or OSB sheets. This makes alignment easier and ensures a more secure bite for your fixings.
Pressure Treated Protection: To guarantee longevity, these rails are fully pressure treated (tanalised). This preservative penetrates deep into the wood, offering long-term protection against rot, fungal decay, and insect attack in outdoor environments.
Rough Sawn Finish: The textured surface provides excellent friction for joining elements, ensuring that once your rails are nailed to the posts, they stay put.
System Installation
These rails are the structural core of your "Build Your Own" hoarding system:
The Frame: Installed horizontally between your fence posts (typically spaced at 2.4m centres).
Enhanced Stability: While standard systems use lighter rails, using this 100mm profile creates a heavy-duty grid. We recommend installing three rails per bay (top, middle, and bottom) to prevent sheet warping and ensure the fence can withstand heavy impact.
Versatile Orientation: Can be installed with the 100mm face vertical (for maximum nailing area) or horizontal (for maximum stiffness against wind pressure), depending on your specific structural design.

If you are unsure whether you need standard (75mm) or heavy-duty (100mm) rails for your specific site location, we can advise you based on wind exposure and ground conditions. Get in touch with First Fence today: Phone: 01283 512111 - Online: Use our live chat tool for instant advice.
