Installation on Chain Link Fence
How long will Tonkin bamboo fencing last?
This tiki bamboo wall is weather-dependent. In dry climates, some Zoos have a 10-year outdoor life span. In wet, humid areas with no timber oil protection, it can be much less. We recommend Cabot’s Australian Timber Oil.
What’s the best way to install the Tonkin bamboo fencing outside?
Simply attach galvanized wire of the bamboo fence to a chain link fence using zip ties or predrill bamboo holes every 4″ and attach to a firing strip using deck screws. Coat with a timber oil to slow down weathering and color fade.
What happens to bamboo when it ages?
This product is made from natural organic bamboo. UV light and changing temperatures will subject the bamboo reeds to cracking, splitting, aging, and color fading. However, this will not change the integrity or the functionality of the bamboo.
Can I clean the Tonkin bamboo fence panel?
Yes. We highly recommend cleaning your Tonkin bamboo fence panel by power washing it once a year if it is used outdoors. If it is installed indoors, you may just wipe down the panels with a damp cloth.
Can I stain or restore the Tonkin bamboo fence panels?
Yes. Bamboo restores itself very well. However, we suggest waiting until the bamboo has weathered before staining. Over time, the waxy cellulose fibers on the surface of the bamboo will wear off. This will allow the bamboo to take on the color of the stain easily.
How do I cut the Tonkin bamboo fence panel?
The best tool to lower the height of a fence panel is a common circular saw with a 140-teeth plywood blade. If you need to cut down the width of a panel, wire cutters will easily cut the wire holding the panel together. Simply cut the wire about two bamboo canes longer than you need, remove the extra canes and wrap the extra wire around the last bamboo cane.
How do I prevent Tonkin bamboo fence panels from cracking?
Bamboo has a natural tendency to crack. You can reduce the chances of cracking by drilling holes in each section between the nodes to release air, running a long object such as a broomstick through all the nodes or the entire pole, or applying a clear sealant to the bamboo.
How do I avoid discoloration in the Tonkin bamboo fence panel?
Sunlight will change the color over time but a sealant with strong UV resistant properties will help protect the bamboo.
How do I keep the Tonkin bamboo fence panel from collecting mold or mildew?
Using a sealant with a strong fungicide will minimize or even prevent mold or mildew growth on your bamboo fence panel.
