Fence boards.

    I wonder can anyone help me with this one.
    Due to the stormy weather the other night, a fence panel blew down. I need to replace same because it is too rotten to repair. The fence is made up of concrete posts with a concrete plinth and the panel is just slipped in to the slots in the posts.
    The garden 2 doors up have similar fence, but the panels are just like deck boards, except they are identical on both sides. They are approx. 40mm thick.
    The guy just got some bloke to do his one a couple of years ago and doesn't know where he got them.
    I am in Cork City area, and I wonder if anyone would know where I could source these.
    I don't see them in Hanleys brochure. Also had a look in b n q and no joy.

    If you search online OP the thing you are looking for is called a "gravel board" I think B&Q sell them.

    Went to Brooks today, and the guy there never heard of them. The search continues. Might have to try normal deck boards.

    Sorry, but I'm a little technically challenged when it comes to posting a pic on boards. Looked at the advice on FAQ section but can't make head nor tail of it. If you could give me an idiots guide on how to do it, then I will post it. I have already taken the pic. Sorry:confused:

    Im not looking for a fence panel though, I'm looking for a particular fence board like a double sided deck board.

    Have seen groved planks in shedworld. Same as decking board.Need about 7 of them to cover the size of a panel sheet.

    Problem solved.
    I went back to Hanleys today and took a walk around the garden centre. And there they were on display.
    Thanks a million for all the advice.
