Timber Cover Strip Pack 2 Metres – Wooden Gate & Fence Finishing Trim
Overview
The Timber Cover Strip Pack (2 Metres) is the ultimate finishing touch for any premium gate or fencing installation. When hanging double timber driveway gates or side entry panels, a small physical gap must be left between the meeting styles to allow the wood to swell safely during damp winter months without binding. However, this gap compromises your privacy and allows wind to whistle through.
This pack of premium timber cover strips solves the issue beautifully. By face-fixing a strip to the leading edge of one gate leaf, it creates an elegant overlapping rebate that seals out drafts, blocks prying eyes, and acts as a natural door stop.
Key Features
-
Premium European Redwood/Whitewood: Sourced from sustainably managed forests and precision-planed for a smooth, splinter-free tactile finish.
-
Deep Tanalith-E Treatment: Pressure-treated to ensure the preservative sinks deep into the wood grain, eliminating the need for immediate painting or staining.
-
Warp-Resistant Profile: Kiln-dried prior to treatment to minimize the natural twisting, splitting, or cupping risks associated with thin outdoor timber strips.
-
Multi-Purpose Practicality: Easily cut down to size to use as fencing cover laths, timber arris rail repairs, or decorative external cladding trim.

Installation Tip
Pro Tip: When installing these strips as a vertical closing trim on a pair of double gates, only screw the strip onto the “active” gate leaf (the side you open first). Let the strip overlap the “passive” leaf by roughly 15mm to 20mm. This forms a perfect weather-shield rebate. Always use stainless steel or high-quality exterior wood screws to prevent unsightly black chemical tanin stains from running down the timber face over time.
