Before you order

Plan the shape before the first cut.

A quick layout helps you work out lengths, corners and how the timber will be secured.

Ask the team
  1. Sketch the layout

    Mark the length of each run, corners and changes in height. Share the plan with the team when discussing quantities.

  2. Compare the timber

    Check dimensions, treatment and the finish you want. Natural timber grain and colour vary between pieces.

  3. Think about fixing and drainage

    Plan suitable fixings and how the timber will meet the ground. Ask your installer about drainage, anchoring and treatment of cut ends.

Good to know

A few useful answers.

A little practical detail before you choose your materials.

What are the sleeper lengths?

The green and brown sleeper products featured here are listed at 2.4 metres. Check the individual product for the full dimensions before ordering.

Will every sleeper look the same?

Timber is a natural material. Grain, colour, knots and surface characteristics can vary between pieces.

Can I use sleepers to retain soil?

The design, height and ground conditions matter. Confirm suitable supports, drainage and construction details with your installer before ordering.
