#railing fence

There is a magic about certain proportions - somehow the length of chassis on a 110 Defender makes it the ultimate towing machine, old sash and casement windows have a rightness which is very hard to replicate, so many things just work better in threes. The D rail goes firmly into the “very slightly magic” class. It has the ability to make just about any fence look good. In fact the D rail is the fencing equivalent of the most flattering piece of clothing you own, fencers take note.

D rail used alone as a railing fence looks good, it continues to look good even when the fence’s proportions and spacing are all wrong (sometimes even the best fencer has to compromise in order to keep stock in or out).

Used as a capping rail it gives the fence a fantastic finish and as a capping rail to board fencing it upscales the whole effect. It is also a lot easier to replace a section of D rail than a section of a complicated design only manufactured for 3 years and inevitably discontinued the year before the tree lands on your garden fence. At Hodge Fencing we won’t run out any time soon.

Used as a raised bed, a bench or as gates, tree guards and edging it just looks right. It also has a flat surface front and back making it very easy to work with. It’s a half finished rail treated for exterior use. It’s an all round pretty useful piece of timber, long live the D rail.
