Top Bar Capped Hazel Hurdle Fence Panel Premium Weave

Willow and hazel hurdles are types of fencing made from woven willow or hazel branches. They are commonly used in garden and landscaping applications for their natural appearance and durability. The use of these materials is eco-friendly and sustainable, making them a popular choice for those looking for a rustic or natural aesthetic.

To ensure the longevity of hazel hurdles, use a mixture of linseed oil and turpentine. Typically, a common ratio is one part linseed oil to one part turpentine. This blend helps nourish the wood, providing protection against the elements and enhancing its natural resilience.

Our hazel hurdles are skillfully handwoven, giving each panel its own unique charm and character. While we maintain consistent high standards and thoroughly inspect each product, no two panels are exactly alike. We offer a variety of hazel hurdle options that highlight their distinct and individual features.

• Split hazel hurdles are renowned for their durability and strength, thanks to their larger diameter rods that are split in half to reveal distinctive wood grain that ages beautifully over time. The striking contrast between the natural bark and the smooth inner wood in the weave creates a unique and eye-catching fence. Each of our meticulously crafted hurdles tells a story through the artisanal workmanship that goes into every piece.

• Birchwood capped hurdles are an ideal solution for protecting plants and vegetation from harsh winds, as they are woven with smaller diameter rods that create a more effective windbreak. What's more, their distinctive capped finish sets them apart from any other type of hurdle, giving them a unique and attractive appearance

Many sizes - and any sizes

Our hurdles are available in multiple sizes, but it's easy for you to cut them to the perfect size -(you have the weaver's permission).Height: easily cut the verticals to size, then simply remove the excess horizontals. Width: more care required - the cut ends will need to be secured with wire or nails to prevent them becoming "unwoven wood".

Traditional willow and hazel hurdles and screens are a popular choice among homeowners and garden designers due to their versatility and natural appearance that can complement any garden style, whether it's urban or rural.

These hurdles are made from sustainably sourced coppiced willow and hazel, a traditional and eco-friendly method that involves cutting back branches to the ground level to stimulate fresh growth year after year.

In addition to their aesthetic appeal, hurdles also serve as excellent garden fences as they act as windbreaks while still allowing some wind to pass through, thus reducing the vortex effect that solid barriers would create. Overall, willow and hazel hurdles are a sustainable and attractive choice for garden design.

If you live in an area with high winds and have had issues with your panelled fencing blowing over, installing fence panels with gaps can be a wise choice. Gaps allow wind to pass through, reducing the pressure and preventing damage. Alternatively, using a concrete mix can provide added stability and help the fence stay firmly in place even in extreme weather conditions.

Our garden hurdles can be easily adjusted to fit any garden size. If they're too tall, you can easily cut them down to the desired size. For a contemporary appearance, you can choose framed hurdles, which feature handwoven materials inside and a robust outer edge, giving a polished and modern look.
