Yes, However the slat fencing needs to be 1800mm
high and no more than 10mm gaps between each slat.

For best results, use a drop saw, This will create a nice
clean Square cut.
A grinder is acceptable providing you use a thin
metal cutting blade to reduce the risk of burning the
powder-coating.
Yes, Generally we work on a standard 15mm gap
between slats.
Depending on the level of privacy you require you can
either close or open the gap to meet your preferred
gap size.
* Note, if this is for pool fencing refer to: building.

You will need to use two posts for this, the slat
channel system is required to be
square to the slats, this can
only be done with two posts
side by side.
When the post caps are powder-coated they are hung
up with a wire.
When installing the caps orientate to hole to the side
so it is not as visible, or alternatively use that hole to
fix the post cap in-place with either a coloured rivet
or screw.
Regular cleaning of your fence will be required to help
prevent water spots from appearing. Hard water is
corrosive to the powder-coating, therefore neglect
will cause deterioration to your fence.
