Douglas Fir Timbers
Douglas Fir stands out for its durable features, making it popular among construction professionals, architects, and landscape designers.
This wood offers multiple advantages for exterior applications, such as its resistance to rot, exceptional ability to repel water, and immunity to insect-related issues, all while demanding minimal maintenance.
Our slatted gates are crafted from 44mm Douglas Fir slats with subtly rounded edges, delivering a high-end finish that rivals our cedar, Iroko, and Cambia selections. To ensure the longevity and appearance of your fence, we strongly recommend using stainless steel hardware, as this prevents any chemical interactions that could mar the wood with stains or discolouration.
Our team is dedicated to eco-friendly operations, ensuring all our woods, such as Douglas Fir, come from forests accredited by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). We focus on safeguarding and sustaining natural resources, so when you choose our timber gates, you’re making an environmentally responsible choice that complements your property and commitment to sustainability.

FAQs
Below are some of the most popular questions that we get asked daily. Please contact us directly if you require further info or have other questions.
Is Douglas Fir Low Maintenance?
Douglas Fir does not require any maintenance thanks to the hard-wearing properties of the timber. We do advise customers to treat with a UV oil or some form of wood care treatment to help preserve colouring and longevity.
What is the lifespan of Douglas Fir?
Even though Douglas Fir is a softwood, the timber is very hard-wearing and will easily withstand the British weather for years to come, with the timber, on average, lasting for up to 20 years, possibly longer if treated regularly.
Is Douglas Fir an Eco-Friendly Timber?
Douglas fir timber is considered eco-friendly due to several factors: it grows relatively quickly, making it a renewable and potentially sustainable source of wood compared to slower-growing species; it has a high rate of natural regeneration, reducing the need for intensive replanting; and the wood is durable and strong, leading to longer-lasting products and less frequent need for replacement. To ensure the eco-friendliness of your Douglas fir, it’s advisable to look for wood certified by reputable organisations like the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) or the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC), which indicate responsible forestry practices.
