Frequently Asked Questions What is included with the Colorbond fence topper side frames? Each quantity includes one pair of powder-coated aluminium side frames – one for each end of a single fence bay. The three aluminium slats required to complete the topper are sold separately. Installation fixings are also not included unless specifically stated. How much height does the fence topper add? The side-frame system creates a 250mm-high slatted extension above a compatible Colorbond or steel fence. How many side-frame pairs do I need? You need one pair of side frames per fence bay. For example, a fence with five individual bays requires five pairs of side frames. Each bay also requires three compatible aluminium slats cut to the appropriate length. What size slats fit these fence topper frames? The frames are designed for 65mm x 16.5mm aluminium slats with a centre web. Three slats are required for each fence bay. The compatible slats are sold separately in 6100mm lengths and can be cut to suit your fence. What is the gap between the slats? The system creates a 13mm gap between the horizontal slats when assembled with the specified compatible slats. Do the slats need to be screwed or welded into the frames? No. The patented friction-fit system allows the compatible slats to push into the side frames and be held firmly in position without welding or screwing the slats to the frames. Can I add this topper to an existing Colorbond fence? The side frames are suitable for new or existing compatible Colorbond and steel fence installations. For an existing fence, the condition and suitability of the fence and posts should be assessed before adding extra height. Does this fit every Colorbond or steel fence? Do not assume the frames will suit every fence configuration. Before ordering, check your fence-bay dimensions, fence and post type, condition of the existing fence and proposed installation method. Where suitability is uncertain, consult an experienced fencing installer before installation. Are the aluminium slats included? No. This listing is for the pair of side frames only. You will need three compatible 65mm x 16.5mm aluminium slats for each fence bay. Slats are sold separately. Do I need approval to increase my fence height? Fence-height and installation requirements can vary depending on the property, location and type of fence. Before increasing the height of a fence, check the requirements that apply to your property, including any relevant council, boundary, pool-barrier or estate requirements. Where are the side frames stocked? The side frames are stocked at our Brisbane and Gold Coast depots and can also be shipped Australia-wide. How are the 6100mm slats transported? The compatible aluminium slats are supplied separately in 6100mm lengths and are too long for most standard vehicles. If collecting the slats, ensure you have a suitable vehicle, supports and legal load restraints. Shipping may be a more practical option for complete fence-topper orders.
