Western Red Cedar Aluminium Fencing & Gates
The Western Red Cedar woodgrain finish on woodgrain aluminium fencing and gates: rich reddish-brown with soft, straight grain - the warmth of timber, none of the upkeep.
Western Red Cedar is the classic architectural softwood look - rich reddish-brown with soft, straight grain. On woodgrain aluminium fencing and gates, that grain is sublimated into a baked architectural powder coat over marine-grade aluminium, so you get the look of Western Red Cedar timber with none of the oiling, warping, splitting or rot.
On a fence or gate, this finish frames the boundary - the same grain runs the length of the run and onto matching swing or sliding gates, giving the look of a hardwood fence with no rotted palings to replace and nothing for termites to chew.
The timeless architectural timber, reimagined in aluminium. Western Red Cedar's warm red-brown depth flatters battens and feature walls without the splitting and fading of the real thing. As aluminium fencing & gates, it carries that character while staying non-combustible, UV-stable and dimensionally stable - the practical way to keep a Western Red Cedar look on a project that has to last.
Where Western Red Cedar works best as fencing
The Western Red Cedar finish suits architectural battens, feature walls and entries. As fencing specifically, it is well placed on:
- Front and boundary fences
- Side and rear returns
- Pool-surround fencing (to compliant detailing)
- Swing and sliding gates
- Driveway and pedestrian gates
- Privacy fence-and-screen combinations
