All 8ft Fence Panels
8ft fence panels are a specialist option designed for jobs that go beyond the standard 6ft size. You can choose extra-wide panels that stretch 8ft 6in across, giving you longer runs with fewer posts, or go taller with panels that stand a full 8ft high. Both styles offer solutions where more coverage or strength is needed.
They’re often chosen for large gardens, commercial sites, or places where privacy and security matter most. Built by hand and treated for long life, these panels give you fencing that feels solid and reliable from the day it’s installed. If you need more information on fence panels please take a look at our fence panels buyers guide here.
Why Choose 8ft Fence Panels?
Standard 6ft panels do the job for many gardens, but there are times you need more. That’s where 8ft fence panels come in. They solve problems that smaller panels can’t.
If you want fencing that feels solid, looks great, and solves practical problems, 8ft panels are the next step up. They’re built for serious jobs where strength and coverage matter.
- Extra width means fewer posts, fewer joins, and less time spent fitting.
- Extra height provides more privacy, blocks out noise, and creates a stronger boundary.
- Heavy-duty timber keeps the structure firm even in tough conditions.
- Treated finish protects the panels so they last year after year.
The Beast is a 6ft wide, 8ft tall closeboard panel. It’s one of the strongest panels we make, built fully framed and reinforced. At this size, it creates a wall of timber that stops unwanted views and helps reduce traffic noise and neighbour disturbances.
In domestic settings, planning permission may be needed before fitting an 8ft tall fence. It’s always worth checking with your local council before you go ahead.
People often choose 8ft Fence Panels:
- Overlooked gardens
- Properties near roads or rail lines
- Commercial sites that need extra protection
Extra-Wide 8ft 6in Panels
Our 8ft 6in wide panels come in heights of 5ft, 5ft 6in, and 6ft. They’re designed for long fencing runs where using 6ft panels would mean too many posts and fittings. Each wide panel covers more ground, so your fence goes up quicker and still looks great.
They’re popular for larger gardens, commercial sites, or anywhere a long boundary needs a cleaner look. One customer in Maidstone told us he cut his fitting time in half by choosing wide panels. Instead of stopping every 6ft, the fence stretched out smoothly and gave him the strong run he wanted.
- Fewer posts and less digging
- Neater lines with fewer joins
- Strong, handmade build that lasts
- Fully treated timber for protection
Custom Sizes up to 8ft x 10ft
Not every garden is made for standard-sized fencing. That’s why we offer custom panels up to 8ft by 10ft.
Because every panel is handmade, we can build to your measurements. A customer near Sevenoaks needed extra-tall panels to shield his workshop. Off-the-shelf panels didn’t work, but a custom order solved the problem neatly. Custom sizing means you can finally fit fencing that matches your space exactly.
These panels work well for:
- Sloping gardens where standard sizes don’t line up
- Taller screening around workshops or outbuildings
- One-off projects where a stronger or bigger panel is needed
Installation and Fitting
8ft panels are built heavy-duty, which means they need solid posts and careful handling during installation. You can fit them yourself if you feel confident, but it’s important to plan for the weight and size before starting. Many people ask us to fit them, as it saves time and makes the process less stressful. However you approach it, strong posts and a steady hand will keep your panels secure.

- FAQ
- DELIVERY AREA
- What size fence posts do I need for 8ft fence panels?
This would all depend on what size gravel board you are using. As an example if you was using a 1ft gravel board you would need to use a 11ft fence posts. This would give you the recommended depth of 2ft in the ground
Do I need wood or concrete posts?We would recommend concrete fence posts for fence panels. Wood is also a good option if using uc4 treated posts. This will ensure they will last with ground contact.We only sell uc4 treated posts.
Do you make wide fence panels?Yes! We make the widest fence panels that you can buy. The fence panels range from 7ft to 10ft wide.
Are the fence panels treated?All of our fence panels are fully pressure treated.
Do I need to treat my fence panels?You will not need to treat your fence panels bought from G&G as they are fully pressure treated but if you want to keep them looking fresh we recommend Barrentine Timber Protector to repel water, protect against UV damage and mould. The Barrentine Timber Protector offers good surface protection due to its wax content, but it's really only suitable for use on pre-treated timber.
Can I Collect?Yes we have a warehouse and showroom in Northfleet In Kent and also in South London
