Any suggestions for closing the small gap between the garage and boundary fence, in a way it looks good overall and prevents animals from getting trapped there? Thank you.
Hi @hazel9988
I was just thinking of a contoured wooden plank attached to the fence.
But is there a specific look you're after?
That is an amazingly small gap - same gap on the other side? Too small for a human?
Cheers.
Hello Noyade,
Thanks for your response and suggestion.
We built up to the boundary with a 200mm gap, as required by the council—funny rule, but it’s only on one side. The other side has a wider space, so we don’t plan on doing anything there.
Since it’s a rental, we’re unsure whether to close the gap for better aesthetics and easier maintenance. My husband initially thought of using a paling to close it, but I’m unsure how it would look or if it might appear awkward with just one there.
Your suggestion of a contoured wooden plank might actually work better and look nicer.
