Hardifence
Stable and Versatile Fencing Solutions
Looking for a fencing solution that doesn’t require concrete footings? Hardifence offers a post-less, highly durable option ideal for various terrains, including sloped and sandy soils. The EasyLock system is specifically designed to be buried into sandy ground, eliminating gaps beneath the fence and providing a seamless barrier.
The Fencing Solution for Keeping Pets In and Keeping Pests Out
Note: As of March 2019, Hardifence has been discontinued by manufacturer James Hardie.
Luckily, Jim’s Fencing can recommend some excellent Hardifence alternatives to suit your domestic or commercial property.
Hardifence is an excellent choice for homeowners seeking to secure their property. Its design helps prevent pets from escaping and deters pests like snakes from entering, thanks to panels that can be buried up to 600mm into the ground.
The Best Hardifence Alternatives
Hardifence may now be discontinued, but that’s no obstacle when you talk to the experts at Jim’s Fencing. We take the time to understand your needs and recommend the best fencing style for the job. If you’re looking for a sturdy, weatherproof and all-elements fence, consider Colorbond steel fencing.
To eliminate gaps underneath your fence, try one of our modular wall systems, offering the look and performance of a brick wall at a fraction of the price.

FAQs
What is HardieFence® and what makes it different from other fencing materials?
HardieFence® is a fibre cement fencing solution designed to be asbestos-free, durable, and resistant to termites, rot, and fire. Unlike timber or metal, it doesn’t rust, warp or require frequent maintenance—making it ideal for harsh Australian environments.
Is HardieFence® a safe replacement for old asbestos fencing?
Yes. HardieFence® is a modern, asbestos-free alternative that is commonly used to replace outdated asbestos fencing. It meets Australian safety standards and provides peace of mind for homeowners looking to upgrade their boundary fences safely.
Is HardieFence® suitable for all soil types and locations?
Absolutely. HardieFence® is designed for non-dig installations, making it ideal for areas with expansive or reactive soils. It’s especially popular in Western Australia, where soil conditions and termite activity make traditional timber fencing less suitable.
How long does HardieFence® last and is it low maintenance?
HardieFence® is built to last for decades. It is resistant to weather, pests, and fire—requiring very little upkeep beyond occasional cleaning. Its longevity and low-maintenance performance make it a cost-effective fencing solution.
Can HardieFence® be painted or customised?
Yes. While HardieFence® comes in a neutral finish, it can be painted to suit your home’s colour scheme. This gives you the flexibility to personalise your fence while enjoying the strength and reliability of fibre cement construction.
