Description

Finish your close board or space board fence properly with the Formula 7® Mould Capping Rail. Fitted over the top of your feather-edge or space boards, this capping rail covers the exposed end grain that's most exposed to Irish weather, stopping water sitting in the timber and causing rot.

Beyond protection, it gives your fence a neat, professional finish — running a clean line along the top of every bay instead of leaving raw board ends on show.

Like every Formula 7® product, it's a modern alternative to creosote treatment, giving you the same long life without the mess or safety concerns of the old creosote treatments.

Why fit a capping rail

  • Shields the vulnerable end grain of close board and space board fencing from rain

  • Reduces the risk of rot at the point your boards are most likely to fail

  • Gives your fence a tidy, finished appearance along the top edge

  • Works with a counter rail for a fully supported, secure fit

  • Extends the working life of the boards underneath it

5. Exclusion of Concrete Installation: This warranty does not cover posts that have been installed in concrete or any other masonry material. Posts installed in this manner are excluded from warranty coverage.
6. Recommendation for Cut or Notched Wood: To ensure maximum longevity and warranty coverage, any cut or notched sections of Formula 7® fence posts should be treated with an appropriate end grain preservative.

This process may involve the taking of photographs of the fence posts as part of the verification and assessment process. Please be aware that if access is refused and McNamara Fencing is unable to assess the posts in question, this may result in the denial of warranty registration or a claim related to those specific posts.
9. Discounted Replacement Benefit: If the decay, fungal attack, or insect damage is determined to be covered under the warranty, McNamara Fencing will provide a discount towards the purchase of a new fence post. The discount will be initially calculated based on the remaining years in the warranty period and the current price of a replacement post. For example: If a fence post fails after 5 years i.e., 75% of warranty period remaining. McNamara Fencing will offer the end user a discount of 75% against an equivalent new fence post.
10. Exclusions: This warranty does not cover any consequential or incidental damages, labour costs for installation or removal, disposal costs, loss of use, loss of profits, or any other indirect damages.
11. Limitations: McNamara Fencing’s liability under this warranty is limited to providing a discount for the purchase of a replacement post, as outlined in point 9. Warranty coverage shall not extend to any replacement posts supplied.
12. Termination: This warranty will be null and void if the wooden fence posts are altered, moved from their original installed location, modified, or repaired by unauthorized individuals or if the posts are used in ways inconsistent with their intended purpose.
