A chestnut paling fence is strong, durable and difficult to climb over. It will last for many years and is repairable if damaged. Quick to erect, it makes a versatile temporary or permanent fence, which can easily be moved, re-used or taken down and stored. Chestnut pale fencing is also used extensively for dune stabilisation as well as erosion protection and stabilisation of riverbanks.

The rolls of traditional chestnut paling fence are made to BS Standard 1722 Part 4 and are made with FSC certified wood.
