Fencing in Gosport
The Gosport peninsula is open, flat and takes the Solent wind full on – which is exactly why so much fencing here fails early. Helyers of Hampshire fit fencing across Gosport specified for exposure: concrete posts, gravel boards, and panels chosen to survive a winter rather than just look good in June.
Fencing Built for Solent Wind
We are based just across the water in Fareham, so Gosport is on our doorstep and we know how hard the wind works here. On the most exposed plots around Lee-on-the-Solent and Alverstoke we will normally advise hit-and-miss or slatted panels, which let gusts through instead of catching them like a sail.

Common Questions
Why does my fence keep blowing down?
Usually shallow timber posts and solid panels. Concrete posts set deeper, plus wind-permeable panels, solve it on exposed Gosport plots.
What is a hit-and-miss fence?
Boards fixed alternately on each side of the rail. It gives privacy but lets wind pass through, so it survives far better in exposure.
Does salt air damage fencing?
It accelerates corrosion of cheap fixings and rot at ground level. We use appropriate fixings and keep timber off the wet with gravel boards.
