Frequently Asked Questions About WPC Composite Fences

Here you will find clear answers to frequently asked questions about our composite fences, installation, maintenance, delivery, colors, warranty, and ordering options.

Products & materials

1. What are composite fences made of?

Our composite fences are made from a combination of wood fibers and plastic. This gives you the natural look of wood with less maintenance and a long lifespan.

2. Are composite fences low-maintenance?

Yes. Composite fences do not need to be sanded, painted, or stained. Cleaning with water and a soft brush is usually sufficient.

3. Are WPC fences suitable for Dutch weather?

Yes. WPC composite fences are designed for outdoor use and are suitable for rain, wind, and fluctuating temperatures.

4. Does composite material fade from the sun?

Like many outdoor materials, a slight color change may occur during the initial period due to sunlight and weather exposure. The color will normally stabilize afterwards.

5. Are the fences delivered as complete sets?

We offer both individual fence products and complete fence sets. Always check the product title and the Package Contents section to see exactly what is included.

6. What is included with a fencing product?

The included components vary by product. Each product page clearly lists which fence boards, profiles, clamps, screws, stoppers, cover strips, posts, and other parts are included.

7. Are aluminum garden posts included?

For individual fence panels, aluminum garden posts are normally sold separately, unless stated otherwise. For complete fence sets, the aluminum posts and required fittings are included when this is clearly shown on the product page.

8. Can I order accessories separately?

Yes. Fence posts, profiles, end caps, fastening materials, post holders and other accessories can be ordered separately via the Fence Accessories & Fittings category.

9. Can I order a low fence?

Yes. Low fences are available in the Low WPC Fences category and are suitable for front yards, decorative partitions, and lower privacy solutions.

10. What is the difference between standard and Rhombus fences?

Standard composite fences use horizontal planks for a closed appearance. Rhombus fences have a modern slatted profile with a sleek and distinctive appearance.

11. Do composite fences provide privacy?

Yes. Many models offer good privacy. Check for each product whether the chosen design is closed or semi-open.

12. Can the fence be cut to size?

In many cases, composite planks and aluminum profiles can be cut to size. Use suitable tools and follow the assembly instructions carefully.

Most large orders are delivered on a pallet using a large truck that is equipped with suitable unloading equipment. The driver will place the pallet in a safe, easily accessible location in front of the property or on the driveway, depending on accessibility and the local circumstances.

Normally, you will receive a delivery time window from the carrier by email one working day before delivery. The driver may also call you approximately 30 minutes before arrival. Please therefore make sure that the correct phone number is listed on your order.
Your order will be delivered to an easily accessible location at your home or driveway, depending on accessibility and the local situation.
