Use 50mm galvanised nails to attach them - it is important you only use one nail per pale per rail (i.e. 3 nails) - do not nail two pales together. The single fixing is to allow the pales to expand and contract with the weather.
Where do you nail feather edge fence?
Take your first Feather Edge board and sit it on the gravel board with the thick edge flush with the left face of your first post and nail in position using your 40mm nails. The nails should be approx 20mm in from the LH side and one should be driven in at the centre of the 3 Arris rails.
Should you nail or screw feather edge boards?
The choice is yours. The rails can be screwed into the posts through the sides and supporting brackets can be used to give extra strength. 3 inch number 8 screws are usually needed for this, all timber should be treated. The first feather edge board can then be fixed on the outside of your fence.
