Kinkakuji-Gaki bamboo fence: a low edging fence for paths
Note: please refer to the Additional information tab for synthetic bamboo fence specifications.
Some boundaries should guide rather than hide. The Kinkakuji-Gaki is a short bamboo fence that lines walkways, borders planting beds and keeps foot traffic off lawns and moss, while guests still see the whole garden. ONETHATCH supplies it as a pre-made synthetic bamboo fence, ready to bring an authentic Japanese touch to resort paths, restaurant landscaping, courtyards and backyards.
Where the style comes from. The style takes its name from Kinkaku-ji (Rokuon-ji), the Golden Pavilion temple in Kyoto, where the original bamboo fence stands in the northern grounds. Traditional versions are see-through, foot-level fences, typically 30–50 cm high.
How we build it. All our bamboo fencing panels are made in ASA synthetic bamboo, molded from real bamboo and colored with mineral pigments, then mounted on powder-coated aluminum frames that join with screwless connectors. They resist splitting, cracking, mold and insects, so your artificial bamboo fence stays neat around the plants it protects. A natural bamboo screen, by contrast, will mold, rot and discolor outdoors. Our standard panel is 2000 × 900 mm (width × height), and it can be customized to order to suit your layout.

Elegant Garden Borders and Edging
Kinkakuji-Gaki is the short bamboo fence that makes the bamboo garden border at its most refined. Use it as bamboo garden border edging and bamboo border fencing along planting beds, as neat bamboo edging and bamboo lawn edging around lawns and moss, or as a low bamboo pedestrian fence that keeps guests on the walkway. Compared with a bamboo picket fence or bamboo picket lawn edging cut from natural canes, or bamboo rolled edging wired together, it resists rot even beside damp soil: the poles are molded ASA on an aluminum frame, so the line stays crisp season after season, and it suits bamboo border edging along terraces and courtyards just as well.
Kinkakuji-Gaki Fence FAQ
Traditionally it is a low, foot-level fence, typically 30–50 cm high, used to edge paths and planting beds. The standard ONETHATCH Kinkakuji-Gaki panel is 2000 mm wide and 900 mm high, and it can be customized to order, so send us your layout if your paths call for a different size.
Both are low, see-through Japanese garden fences, but Kinkakuji-Gaki uses upright bamboo poles between horizontal rails, while Ryoanji-Gaki crosses split bamboo diagonally into a diamond lattice. Choose Kinkakuji-Gaki for crisp path edging and Ryoanji-Gaki for a more decorative border.
It is used along garden paths, around planting beds and lawns, beside restaurant terraces and in courtyards, wherever you want to guide people without blocking the view. It also frames climbing plants and low shrubs beautifully.
It is made to resist both. Unlike natural bamboo, which molds and rots where soil and sprinklers keep it damp, ONETHATCH synthetic bamboo fencing resists mold and rot, and it passed 5,000 hours under a lab lamp that recreates sunlight (ASTM G155 accelerated weathering) with no significant color change (Micom Laboratories, Canada).
