Discover moreSlatted fencing gives a garden a contemporary look while increasing airflow and natural light. With options to provide different levels of privacy, our slatted fence panels can be used as garden screens or garden fencing. All our timber slatted fencing is guaranteed for 25 years against rot and insect attack. Browse our extensive range, including single and double slatted fence panels in vertical and horizontal designs and multiple height options to perfectly complement your outdoor space.
Horizontal slatted fence panels, often referred to as Venetian fence panels, feature slats running horizontally. This orientation creates a sense of openness in the garden, drawing the eye along the fence to make the space appear larger and more expansive. With its sleek, contemporary design, horizontal slatted fencing is a popular choice for modern gardens and is frequently selected by garden designers. These panels not only serve a functional purpose but also offer a wide range of decorative options, from standard slats to double slats for enhanced privacy, woven slats, and seamless designs that eliminate the need for visible posts. Available styles include Venetian, Venetian Hit and Miss, Metro, Louvre, and Urban.
Because vertical slatted fence panels do not create pleasing lines that travel throughout the length of the garden, they are typically used as screens or partitions within the garden or in smaller sections. But they are also suitable for longer runs. Vertical slatted fencing is particularly useful for concealing unsightly areas such as bins or storage spaces, as the vertical slats shield the view beyond. Any of our 6ft high slatted fence panels can be rotated to create either vertical or horizontal slats, providing flexibility to suit different design needs.
We offer a wide range of slatted fence panels to suit contemporary and traditional garden designs. Our standard slatted panels include the Venetian panel and the Metro panel, which creates a continuous linear appearance. For increased privacy, our double slatted option is the Venetian Hit and Miss panel. We also manufacture the Louvre panel, the Woven panel, the Hit and Miss panel, and the Urban panel, each providing a distinctive look and level of screening. All panels are fully framed, use stainless steel fixings, work with our slotted Jakposts, and come with our unique twenty five year guarantee.
Slatted panels provide partial privacy and are ideal for creating a light, modern, open garden space. Their design allows daylight to filter through while softening views. For increased screening, double slatted panels such as the Venetian Hit and Miss panel have slats on both sides of the frame in an alternating pattern. This reduces visibility through the panel while still allowing airflow, although you may still see through the fence when standing close and looking at an angle.
If maximum privacy is required, styles such as the Urban panel provide a much higher level of screening while still offering a contemporary appearance.
Single slat fencing is known as the Venetian panel. It has horizontal slats on one side only, which creates a clean, modern appearance and allows light to pass through while providing partial privacy.
Double slat fencing is known as the Venetian Hit and Miss panel. It has slats on both sides of the panel, fitted in an alternating pattern. This reduces visibility through the panel while still allowing airflow and daylight. The design also helps improve performance in windy areas because the alternating slats diffuse wind pressure.
Alongside these options, we also offer a wide range of other slatted styles, including Metro, Louvre, Woven, Urban, and Hit and Miss. Each style provides a different level of screening, texture, and visual character to suit a variety of garden designs.
Yes. Slatted fence panels are suitable for garden and residential boundaries. They combine contemporary style with strong, durable construction and can be used as standalone boundary panels or as part of a mixed garden design. If greater privacy is required, styles such as the Venetian Hit and Miss panel, the Urban panel, and the Woven panel provide higher levels of screening while still retaining a modern appearance.
Yes. Jacksons manufactures gates that match the style, finish, and dimensions of the main slatted panel range. A small number of the less common styles do not have dedicated matching gates, and in those cases we recommend suitable alternatives on the relevant product pages. All matching gates provide a secure, long lasting, and visually consistent entrance for any garden or boundary. View our full range of garden gates that include slatted gates.
Venetian slatted fence panels, often referred to as single slat fencing, consist of a single row of slats on one side of the fence. While these panels allow light and air to pass through, they do not offer significant privacy due to the spacing between the slats. Single slat fencing is ideal for gardens that do not face neighbouring properties or when added to the top of a wall. It provides a reasonable level of privacy while maintaining an attractive design feature.

slatted garden gatesDouble slatted panels feature timber slats on both sides of the panel, with an overlap that helps reduce visibility through the fence. These are commonly known as 'hit and miss' panels. Although light and air can still pass through, the overlap ensures that privacy is largely maintained. This type of fencing is an excellent choice for defining boundaries while offering a higher level of seclusion. They are great for gardens that frequently experience windy conditions but still want privacy, as they help to filter wind through the panel unlike solid fence panels.
The minimal space between the slats makes it difficult to see through, making double slatted fences perfect for use along boundary walls facing busy roads or overlooking neighbouring gardens. Additionally, the symmetrical design means both sides of the fence are visually appealing, which is especially useful for fences in front gardens or areas where both sides will be visible. This ensures that your home looks aesthetically pleasing both inside and out.
