Browse Forums Outdoor Living 1 Jan 01, 2013 7:09 pm Does anyone know much about this new product that is made from aluminum, but looks like timber? We are going to put up a front fence as we now have to store our caravan in the front yard, the dilemma that we are having is that we are going to have to put in a fence that either has retractable panels or panels that can be lifted out, to put the van in and out. We have been trying to come up with a suitable option, such as posts that may go into the ground that would take the fence supports, but could be lifted out like a clothes line, or some type of sliding panels that could retract back in stages. I should also mention that we live in a court and that we only have a small frontage. The fence is not going to go across the driveway, so I guess that the length would be about 13 metres.
