Finyl Fencing & Railings Ltd.

our next couple beam orders....installed. You can see in one of the pictures that its a great way to hide wiring for fixtures too.

We are now manufacturing faux ceiling beams. You can give your home a timber frame look and because the beams are hollow, they're great for hiding wiring sprinkler lines and other services.

Our customer put this nice stain on the fence we completed last fall. It looks great. In the second photo , just prior to Christmas we supplied and installed these custom aluminum gates for fire truck access at a strata in Ladner.

We just finished a new fence on Butte Street behind Save on foods in Port Alberni. Our customer has good quality concrete walls separating the property and the alley from their yard and so we used brackets to mount the posts on top of the wall. No ground contact will make for excellent longevity.

New red cedar deck recently completed in Tsawwassen. Hidden fasteners were used with custom cut grooved cedar for a clean surface. All materials were pre-stained on all sides for longevity.

Just completed....6’ high overlapping board fence in Port Alberni. This design has excellent drainage , doesn’t trap water and will outlast standard fence designs

I apologize to anyone who was attempting to view our website . There was some glitch in the system that we were not aware of and it was preventing access. Up and working now. David

i had some interest in a perspective of size...so here you have it.

My 2019 donation piece for the Pacific Salmon Foundation May 10 Vancouver Gala auction and fundraiser is complete. Please share so we can raise as much money as... possible at the auction. I need to publicly thank Brittany Visona and Lance Barrett-Lennard from Ocean Wise for their assistance and use of their photographs without which carving the whale would have been more of a guess than anything else. I also want to publicly thank Sid Keay for all of his support and generosity. Sid has given so many of my art pieces a home at Duncanby Lodge, and has done more for Chinook salmon than most people know. I wrote a little blurb for the display at the auction: Carved from western red cedar and cypress (yellow cedar) this 46 circle entitled Links includes a southern resident killer whale, a Chinook salmon, Pacific herring and bull kelp each carved to approximately life size. All of them have a crucial link to each other and all are at risk. Southern resident killer whale Onyx (L87) represented here, is a unique member of J Pod. He was born in 1992, the offspring of Olympia (L32) and after she passed away in 2005, Onyx traveled with J and K pods until he was ultimately adopted by J Pod. Onyx and the other resident killer whales require Chinook salmon for survival. The Chinook salmon, in turn, require the Pacific herring for food. Bull kelp is essential to the Pacific herring as cover from predators and as spawning grounds. Each of these vital links have experienced recent decline.

New Fence, deck and retaining wall on 47a in Ladner.

Fence, arbour and staining complete at Anderson and Maitland in Port Alberni . 50% of the boards on the short fence we reused from the original back fence, pressure washed them and stained them to match all the new pieces.

Some still photos of the sturgeon carving for the Fraser River Sturgeon Conservation Society. Auction event October 5 2018. If anyone is interested in bidding, ...the FRSCS will appreciate the support. The fish is based on a beauty we caught for modelling purposes in July. We tagged her, tag #0A13661574. She was caught at km 16 in Ladner, and released with her information recorded and added to the research database. The size of the fish is an accurate representation (as near as i was able) of the same fish and she would have weighed in the area of 140 lbs.with her sizes being 194 cm from nose to fork and 70 cm girth behind the pectoral fins. For those of you who have never seen or touched a white sturgeon, they are amazing creatures. Their bodies are not smooth, and in fact with the exception of the belly are covered with random sized bumps. it feels much like very coarse sandpaper, but much more random.They have the most intricate patterns on the tops of their heads, almost similar to the patterns made by beetles under the bark of a tree. On their scutes, the bumps along the center of their backs, there are iridescent patterns of small lines and dots, and on the underside of the snout there are small pink, for lack of a better description, dots that the fish use to sense things in the water. I tried very hard to duplicate all of these unique features. For anyone interested, I will make one more post with some progress photos from start to finish, for everyone who missed the earlier ones I have named the piece "Legacy of the Fraser" and i have no idea if it is him or her..that was my call

Completed this screen today. Combination of clear red cedar prestained with Sansin natural cedar stain and tempered glass. As our customer has a pool, and they wanted the modern horizontal look, we installed the glass between the slats to prevent it from being climbable. The beautiful clear cedar we acquired from a local mill in Port Alberni. We’re quite pleased with the result.

Here and there in my few minutes a spare time I started a carving as a donation for the Pacific Salmon Foundation fundraising gala May 11 2018. My friend Dwayne Hearn and I went high on a mountain outside Port Alberni to find a suitable yellow cedar salvage log left from logging operations. On Jan 15 I began cutting and yesterday it was completed. I am happy to say it turned out just fine and am hopeful it will raise a lot of cash. Please share this post so we can raise as much as possible. The photos show the progress from log to completion Very pleased to advise everyone that my carving was auctioned on Friday for $30,000.00. Thank you everyone for your encouragement and thank you to all the bidders who made such a fantastic result possible,

I replaced my niece and her husbands deck with a new cedar deck. The original was sad and quite unsafe. Dwayne Hearn supplied all the lumber. All of the cedar came from 40-50 year old logs salvaged from a decommissioned forest service road bridge and the fir framing material was salvaged from trees blown down in a windstorm. It is some of the nicest cedar I have ever seen. I’ve added some photographs of Dwayne‘s sad old deck prior to being replaced

This design of fence with a combination of overlapping boards and heavy top and bottom rails is our best seller. It’s a very strong fence and the overlapping board pattern allows water to drain out the bottom and air to flow through and dry the boards after a rainfall. This will give you a longer lasting fence.
