bamstrip.JPG (16950 bytes)#1.  Bamboo & Curves
The picture on the left shows how we take extra care in constructing our wing fences.  Japanese wing fences are well known for their exquisite curves that add character and elegance to a japanese garden.  However, by bending the bamboo this also creates pressure on the bamboo and makes them highly prone to cracking.  For all our wing fences, we actually split the bamboo into small strips and bind them back together.  This allows for the fence to be natural, yet highly durable.

For extra durability we use bamboo slats on most all our gates and fences.  Although this takes much more time and work, it increases the durability and life of the fence or gate substantially. Each bamboo cane is actually split and then tied to create the lattice pattern that is popular in japanese fences.

We place bamboo slats on the front and the back of all gates and fences.  This allows for them to look the same on either side - just like full bamboo canes, but much more durable.

For extra durability, we bind the bamboo strips with copper wire. Japanese bamboo fences are also very well known for the use of black twine for visual depth and appeal, however twine can quickly deteriorate depending on the climate. We bind all our gates and fences with a natural sturdy durable vine. Lastly we apply a coat of polyurethane to the bamboo to repel water and help retain the color. We also suggest to apply a coat of polyurethane yearly or depending on your climate.

Caring for Bamboo
Bamboo is much like wood, it is very durable, hard and has great strength. Bamboo should be treated just as you would any of your outdoor wood products. We suggest to apply a coat of polyurethane to all bamboo fences or bamboo items yearly or as needed depending on your climate to repel water and help retain the color. If you live in a humid area, use a mold resistant polyurethane.
