Siberian Larch Gravel Board
Our chunky Larch gravel boards are available in two sizes 95mm and 145mm with a thickness of 45mm. Designed to work with our Larch slotted posts and panels these gravel boards are built to last.
The surface of our gravel boards is planed smooth. As the gravel board is 45mm thick it is far stronger than standard timber gravel boards. This provide a solid and stable base for the fencing panel to sit on top.

Siberian Larch is a very popular timber choice for its appearance and durability. It is used widely by Designers and Architects and is considered one of the best timbers for exterior use. The shapes and patterns of the grain are very aesthetically pleasing and provide real character. The colour is normally honey, straw to light brown. It looks particularly good when stained with Cedar oil
as this enhances the timbers colour or it can be left to naturally age to silver grey.
Larch originates from Siberia where the weather is extremely cold. The trees are very slow growing making the timber dense and tight grained with minimal knots. These characteristics make Larch perfect for external cladding, fencing as well as other features like joinery,
decking, and flooring.
Larch is not as vulnerable to knocks, scrapes and scratches. This is an important aspect for fencing as it will mean your boundary will be robust and stand the test of time. You can expect your Larch to last between 30 and 50 years. If you compare this to standard treated soft wood fencing you can see that Siberian Larch really is a great option.
Larch does sometimes develop shakes or small splits as the wood dries out, this does not in any way affect the strength or durability of the wood. This is just a natural characteristic of Siberian Larch.
