Timberline “Shh... Don’t tell anyone it’s plastic”

The Natural Beauty of Wood. The Durability of Plastic.

Timberline is the post and rail for the 21st century. Created from non-toxic vinyl, Timberline combines the visual beauty of fresh painted timber with the strength and resilience of highly advanced extrusion technologies.

The Technical Stuff Our Timberline system has an outer layer containing a higher concentration of UV inhibitors and pigments that colour and protect the plastic from harmful UV rays. This system allows us to add extra impact modifiers throughout the inner layers that give Timberline many important advantages over ordinary plastic fencing systems.

It never needs painting, it will never rot, and it is impervious to termites and woodborers.

Installation is simple, using special interlocking tabs that join the rail to the posts, so there is no need for specialised tools or fixing parts – consequently maintenance is minimal.

We have created a range of natural wood -like colours and textures, inspired by the Australian outback.

They look great, and are also 100% recyclable.

Electroline “Think Highly Advanced�

This is PVC Horse safe fencing that can be electrified! No more messy woven rope or dangerous wire needed to electrify your PVC fence. Electroline has two built-in conductive edges that can be electrified with a standard electric fence energiser.

INTRODUCING The Worlds Most Advanced PVC Fencing System

The culmination of years of meticulous development by Think Fencing, Electroline uses Nano-technology found in the aerospace industry that enables an electric charge to transfer along a conductor and through the polymer.

The conductive carrier has a breaking strain equal to that of the PVC, meaning that in the event of an impact there is no exposed dangerous wire that could cause injury. The rails are easily joined with off -the -shelf terminal connectors.

The base structure and design of Electroline is the same as our tried and tested highly popular Timberline range, and is available in the same range of colours and textures. And naturally, it carries the same warranty.

Zappa Rail “Think Electric” Zappa Rail is an innovative fencing solution featuring two high tensile wires built into the top and bottom of a flat rail. This remarkable rail can be easily electrified using a standard electric fence energiser.

Thanks to the innovative polymers we employ, Zappa Rail its strong, durable long lasting, and very safe. If a horse kicks it or charges into it, the rail will act like a safety belt, flexing to absorb the impact.

MOUNTING Zappa Rail is attached to your post of choice using our special bracketing system, which allows the rail to contour gradients of up to 22.5 degrees!

STRAINING Make sure you have a strong end assembly that you can fix your insul-strainer onto. The Insul-strainer is simple - just slide the Zappa rail into it and tension it up with a spanner. And because it’s permanently mounted to your end assembly you can easily re -tension it if needed.

Equi Rail

“Think Cost Effective” Equirail is a handsome and cost effective fencing solution. It is made from such strong polymers that wire re-enforcing is unnecessary. So it’s also super safe.

This smaller, non-electrified version of the Zappa Rail has a breaking strain of 800kg. It is ideally suited for use with Zappa Rail, or any new or existing fencing systems.

The Equi-tensioner is a simple device permanently fixed to your post, the Equirail slides into a central slot and is cranked up by hand to the desired tension.

And like its bigger brother it is easy to install, highly visible and never needs painting. Perfect for adding life to an old fence or to create a cost effective new fence.

MOUNTING Equirail attaches to your post of choice with a one piece bracket system that allows the Equirail to easily slide through the bracket. So any impact is absorbed along the entire fence run.

STRAINING Because Equirail does not have wire built into it, you don’t need a heavy end assembly. Provided you have a post fixed into the ground that the average person can’t pull over, it will be strong enough.

Picket Fencing “Think No Painting... Ever�

We designed an extensive range of picket styles and configurations to suit every home - from the ultra modern to traditional period styles.

Made from super durable high tech composites, our picket fences retain their good looks year in, year out.

And our unique design means our picket fences look just as good from the front or back.

INSTALLATION IS SIMPLE Your new picket fence will arrive with all posts and rails labelled.

After your posts are concreted in the ground, just slide the rails into the posts and the pickets into the rail.

Our special interlocking tabs are all you need - no specialised tools or equipment needed.

Mystique Paneling “Think Wow Factor” Mystique Paneling is based on a single focus Clean, uncluttered good looks combined with brilliant functionality.

“Absolutely Fantastic, best fence I have ever seen” George Dimitroudis - Drysdale Simply, it is the perfect fence panel to provide absolute privacy - ideal for side fencing, feature walls, or as an acoustic barrier.

INTELLIGENT DESIGN We created special angular panels that clip together, with an air void in between the panel walls to reduce sound penetration.

Independent testing proved that Mystique Paneling can significantly reduce the level of sound transferring through your fence.

Scratch resistance. The colours we use on our fencing products are not just a coating, they are a specific layer of Mechanically and Chemically bonded polymer that has been incorporated into the profile during manufacture. The result is colour that lasts a lifetime, and is scratch and scuff-resistant.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Q: How do I install a Think Fencing Post?

A: First mark out the correct post spacing. Next augur or dig a hole 300mm wide by 650mm deep. Fill the hole with a wet mix concrete mix and push the post into the concrete mix allowing the mix to flow up into the inside of the post.

Q: How do I install a Gate Post and fit a gate?

A: First mark out the correct Gatepost location.

Place the post in the hole and mark out the hinge location. Fit the hinge to the post making sure you have sufficient adjustment to correctly position the gate once the post is set.

Place the post in the hole and fit the rails into the post. Before the rails are slid into the post block the ends of the rails with adhesive tape.

Brace the post if required. Drive a single 12mm Steel Re-enforcing bar through the centre of the post into the soil then core fill the post with a wet mix concrete. After the concrete has set you can bolt the gate to the hinge.

Q: How long will my fencing last?

A: Think Fencing has been manufacturing PVC composite fencing for over a decade in Australia and has tested its fencing systems in the harshest of conditions. Think Fencing employs modern technologies and polymers to create the best fencing systems possible, and has tested them to in excess of 50 years. If a manufacturing defect is found within the life of the product Think Fencing will replace it. More information on Think Fencing’s Manufacturers warranty is available on www.thinkfencing.com. au Q: How do I tension Zappa Rail?

A: After you have installed your posts and strainer assembly you bolt your Insul-Strainer to your end post and slide the Zappa Rail into it. Using a Shifting Spanner or 20mm Spanner crank the insul-strainer up until the Zappa Rail is straight and tight, if you do not have sufficient tension on the Zappa Rail it will sag and warp.

The insul-strainer is a permanent fixture on your end post making maintenance simple and minimal, ensuring your Zappa Rail always looks great!

Q: How do I join Zappa Rail or Equirail?

A: Zappa Rail and Equirail can be easily joined with our Stainless Steel Joining bracket.

Alternatively Zappa Rail can be joined using 2 Gripples.

Q: How do I attach an energizer to Zappa Rail?

A: Using a Knife, strip away 20mm of conductive plastic exposing the wire inside.

Using a wire joiner screw your active wire from your electric fence energizer into the exposed wire. Make sure your energizer is set up based on the specific operation manual for the best result.

Q: Other companies say that coloured fencing will fade rapidly, will Think Fencing products fade?

A: All of Think Fencing’s coloured products are made from a PVC acrylic composite, the PVC makes up the structure of the profile and the Acrylic capping layer provides the colour.

This is very important as coloured PVC that is not capped will fade very fast. Whilst we use the best products available today a 10-year-old fence will not look like a 10-week-old fence.

(It will however look significantly better than a 10-year-old timber fence) Q: The style of fence that I want is not listed in your brochure, can you make other styles?

A: Think Fencing has a dedicated design and fabrication division that is equipped to assist you with all aspects of design and manufacture.

If you have an idea we can make it a reality.

Just send a basic sketch or an image of the style of fence you are trying to replicate. (We can also match colour-Subject to Minimum orders) Q: Can you make matching Gates?

A: Yes, Think Fencing can make almost any gate design you want, Swing gates can be made up-to 2.4m each panel and sliding gates can be made up-to 6m long! All gates come with hardware made by D&D Technologies and are also 100% Australian made.

Think 100% Eco Friendly

Where lesser fencing products often contain heavy materials and carcinogens such as led, tin and chromated copper arsenate (CCA) that bio-accumulate in the earth and are hazardous to both Animals and Humans. Think Fencing uses only inert virgin polymers created from 57% chlorine derived from natural sea salt, and harmless calcium and zinc based stabilisers.

Consequently our polymers not only outperform our competitors, they are also 100% recyclable.

So, when your fencing finally reaches the end of its life we can simply recycle it for you.
