Product Details

Add warmth and privacy to your yard this year with the Slipfence Horizontal Fence system. This Aluminum Channel Kit includes 2 (two) channels needed to build one 8ft. high fence panel. This kit combined with the Slipfence Post Kit, SF2-PK312, provides a strong and long-lasting framework for your horizontal fence project. Attach these two channels to Slipfence Aluminum posts, then slip in regular 1 in. thick deck boards, (called 5/4 deck boards), sold separately into these channels. The result is a warm, fully private, contemporary, horizontal wood fence that has the strength and endurance of an aluminum fence with the warmth and privacy of a wood fence.This system requires Slipfence Aluminum posts and a Slipfence pair of Cap Rails, either one for the bottom and one for the top of each panel, or one just for the top of each panel.Search SF2-PK312 for postsSearch SF2-HCR84-2 for Cap RailsOnce your Slipfence horizontal fence system is installed, the wood will appear too high for the channels. Please allow approximately 4-6 weeks for the wood to shrink and settle down to approximately 1" above the tops of the two side channels and then cut your cap rail to size and slip it onto the top of each panel.
  • Inside channel width 1-1/8 in. to accommodate a 5/4 in. deck board with an actual thickness of 1 in.
  • Kit includes 2-channels 91 in. Long to hold 17 pcs. of 5/4" deck boards x 6 ft. long stacked.Buy 12 foot boards and cut to size of each panel on site.

Q:Can you use two 8' channels to add up to 16' fence? Its to enclose an RV carport.
by|Oct 3, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  I am not sure what you mean? Did you want to stack them to create a 16 foot tall x 6 foot wide fence? This is possible as long as you have space at the top of the 2nd channel to slide boards into the channel. If you wanted to create 2x8 foot gates- this will not work. Hope this answers your question.

    Q:Can i attach to 4 by 4 wood post
    by|Jul 19, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Yes, please note wood posts have a tendency to be warped and twisted. The posts need to be square and plumb facing each other or the channels will create the boards to look out of level and warped once installed.

        Q:Can you use the composite deck boards with this system?
        by|May 15, 2023
        1 Answer
        Answer This Question

        A:  This channel was designed for wood deck boards. Unfortunately, there are too many deck board varieties and dimensions for us to recommend any one specific brand. We will be offering a NEW fence board (3/4"x6-1/4"x 6') composite board through Home Depot in the next few weeks.

          The channels are great the screws not so much. The channels made it so easy to enclose our car port with deck wood slats, but the plastic spacers did not fit the channels, I had to make them out of wood.I wish Home Depot would carry the channels in store. I have other projects where I can use them and it took 2 wks for shipping to the store previously, pick up was easy.

                The slipfence materials came and worked as I expected. I love the concept of installing the posts once and not having to worry about reinstalling if I used wood post.
