How to extend a timber fence?

Morning all,

 

Any suggestions for a material that we could use to extend the height of this fence (pictured)

and extra foot or so? We only need this along the side of the house as the neighbours property is elevated higher than ours meaning they look directly into our bedroom and bathroom windows so would need approximately 7m of fencing raised to obscure those views. We don't spend time looking out the window so lower cost is a priority over aesthetics , would plywood be appropriate or can someone think of a better option? 

 

Cheers.

Re: Wooden Fence Extension

Hello @shaneaoz 

 

For a quick turn-around fence extension, I suggest looking at the following:

 

 

These extensions can literally be screwed straight onto your existing fence and does not require any special fitting. You can add extra timber support if you wish and they can be stained or painted in your preferred colour. The Matrix screen comes in various colours so please choose carefully.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
