Trellis as a Fence Topper or Standalone Screen
One of the most popular uses for trellis is adding height and privacy to the top of an existing fence — a tidy way to gain screening without rebuilding the whole boundary. As a standalone screen, trellis is great for dividing a garden, hiding a service area, or creating a green feature wall once plants establish.
Pairing Trellis With Planting
Trellis comes alive with the right climbers. We can advise on spacing and fixing so your chosen plants have a strong framework to grow on, turning a simple timber screen into a living, green boundary over a season or two.
Trellis Fence — Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The open lattice filters sightlines while still letting light and air through, and once climbing plants fill in, privacy increases further without the boxed-in feeling of a solid fence.
In most cases, yes. We assess your existing fence and posts to make sure they can carry the extra height and wind load, then fix the trellis securely on top.
We use treated timber suited to Auckland's climate so the trellis resists rot and holds up to weather and the weight of established climbing plants.
