Now, a fence from corrugated board, in combination with other materials: brick, wood, stone, although it is not always cheap, it is always an attractive and functional version of the fence for every taste, whether it is an elite country house or a small country house.

Decking: pros and cons
Decking, or profiled galvanized sheet, covered with a layer of polymer coating is a type of modern, popular building material that is widely used in roofing, for the construction of various kinds of fences, walls of temporary structures or outbuildings (garages, sheds).
There are roofing and wall decking. These types of corrugated board are different in strength and rigidity.
For the construction of fences and walls, a profiled wall sheet is used.
The advantages of corrugated board is that it:
- durable (made of steel sheets, the thickness of which varies, depending on the purpose of the profiled sheet: wall or roofing),
- hard (due to stiffeners obtained in the profiling process),
- resistant to environmental influences: moisture and frost resistant all thanks to galvanizing and coating with a polymer composition, the color does not fade in the sun again, thanks to special polymer compositions,
- cheap contributes to this, both directly, the availability of materials from which it is made, and the demand for corrugated board itself,
- material, different in color and pattern, capable of creating almost any effects: brickwork or wood.
- easy to use (both in the form of a finished product and during installation) material.
By cons includeonly that, despite its strength, rigidity and resistance to atmospheric precipitation, the corrugated board is quite thin, with a protective polymer coating that is easily traumatized when cutting, when cutting.
But, this minus is relative, because, having picked up the right tool for sawing and fitting profiled sheets (hacksaw or jigsaw), systematically caring, correcting and repairing damaged sections of the polymer coating on the corrugated board, this material will last, without any problems, for many, many years .
Fence from corrugated board: advantages
Fence from corrugated board this is a special type of fence that combines affordability, fairly easy and quick installation, and 100% reliability.
Benefits of the fence from the profiled sheet is that it is, first of all, a solid fence, as well as a fence, which:
- erected quickly, due to the simplicity of design and is quite accessible for construction on its own
- it is possible to erect on a site with any relief, without carrying out complex excavation works,
- provides the necessary security, privacy of a private territory, as well as noise and dust insulation from the roadway: thanks to the possibility of constructing a fence of almost any height (up to 7 meters in height) (by placing corrugated sheets, both vertically and horizontally)
- can combine several materials: wood, forging, brick and stone. Such a fence is not only functional, but also looks very original and beautiful.
There is a fence from corrugated board and a combined fence from corrugated board.
Types of combined fence from corrugated board:
- corrugated fence with brick pillars or pillars decorated with stone,
- fence corrugated with forging
- corrugated fence with brick / stone and forging.

The options for designing a brick fence using corrugated board are very diverse. In the presence of creative thought and imagination, the design options for such a brick fence are simply diverse and limitless.
Do-it-yourself brick fence and corrugated board
How to build a brick fence using a professional flooring with your own hands? We will try to describe the basic principles of the construction of such a fence.
Decking the material is light, so a columnar foundation will be enough to build a fence from corrugated board and brick. Just the pillars will be brick. But, if you want to create a more capital fence with a base, then you can’t do without a strip foundation.
Schematically, everything will look like this:
Now you need to determine the number of profiled sheets for such a fence: for this, from the length of the fence you need to subtract the width of the brick columns multiplied by their total number.
For the construction of pillars you need to purchase pipes, bricks, mortar for masonry. And for fixing the profiled sheets themselves, you need carrier logs from profiled pipes smaller than for the construction of poles, for example, diameter 40X20 mm, as well as galvanized press washers and self-tapping screws.
What next:
- mark the territory,
- determine the type of foundation and build it,
- install the pillars and, possibly, the base,
- we mount flights: we fix the bearing logs and professional sheets.
- we install caps on a brick fence, or rather, on brick poles, in order to protect from possible destructive weather effects and, at the same time, decorate and give a finished look to a finished fence made of brick and corrugated board.
