Fence capping finishes the exposed top of a wood fence and gives the edge a defined line. This category includes fence battens; compare their profile and dimensions with the fence construction and the finish specified for the project.

Fence Capping

Batten end caps cover the ends of fence battens, so check that their size matches the battens and that the fixing method suits the fence. Consider how the cap meets posts and adjoining sections to keep the top edge consistent.

What should I check when specifying “fence capping wood”?

Confirm the cap’s dimensions, material, and finish suit the fence top and the exposure at the site. Check fixing requirements before installation.

Does this category cover brick capping or stone capping?

This page sits under wood fencing, so brick capping and stone capping are separate masonry applications. Match the cap to the fence or wall material.

What should I check before adding trellis capping or a fence capping rail?

Check that the cap fits the trellis frame or rail profile and leaves room for the specified fixings. Follow the product’s installation guidance.
