About this product
Featuring a square corrugated design, Smartspan is an inherently strong and attractive fence sheet profile. With its contemporary style, Good Neighbour Smartspan Fencing will offer attractive lines to neighbours on both sides of the fence.Image gallery
Fencing with Style and Strength
Fashionable, easy to build fencing that looks great around the home.
Good Neighbour's strength and style is achieved by using steel fence sheets that fit into profiled fence tracks and fence posts. This simple design removes the need for fence rails in the middle of the fence. Good Neighbour Fencing looks identical on both sides, is very strong and easy to build.

Brochures & Installation Guides
Flexible Fencing Design
The modular nature of Good Neighbour Fencing means that it can be used on flat sites or modified to suit sloped and undulating land. A special order for longer top and bottom tracks can allow for unusual designs. If the sheets are cut on-site to the same angle as the slope, panels can be constructed to follow the contour of the land. Alternatively, the Good Neighbour Fence panels can be 'stepped' over undulating land.
Good Neighbour Fencing is perfect for side, rear and front fence applications and can also be used for garden screens or hiding compost areas. End panels can also be 'tapered' for visual effect and to reduce wind pressure on the fence.
Simple Installation
Installing a Stratco Good Neighbour Fence is the perfect do-it-yourself project. All the installation advice, tools and accessories that you need to complete your fence are available at Stratco. Alternatively, we would be happy to arrange a free measure and quote from one of our Authorised Fencing Dealers.
Smartspan® Fencing

Maximum Wind speeds
The tables below provide maximum wind speeds for non-cyclonic and cyclonic regions. For cyclonic areas, the only suitable cladding is Superdek, Smartspan and Wavelok. Fences with no free ends, or with internal sections that are further than two panels from a free end, can be designed using the maximum wind speed for tapered ends. Corners or openings with solid fence gates are not classed as a free end. If you are unsure of your wind speed refer to the 'Determining Wind Speed' section.

Internal panels, (panels that are not part of a free end) can be designed using the maximum wind speeds for tapered ends. For three sheet panels with SHS posts the post needs to be 1.6mm thick. For two sheet panels with SHS posts the post needs to be 3mm thick.
Footings
The sizes of post footings are dependant on the wind speed, soil type and the height of the fence. The following tables can be used to select the correct footing. Footings shall be founded in natural soil only. Concrete shall have a minimum 28 day characteristic strength of 20MPa (Grade 20). The top of the concrete should be shaped to direct water away from the posts. For the three footings adjacent to a free end and posts supporting a gate, the footing size will need to be increased in depth by 100mm. All posts are to be embedded at least 500mm into the footing.
