Widely used for raised beds and planters, retaining walls, garden steps, edging to paths and driveways, terracing on sloping ground, and sandpits and play areas, it has become one of the most popular timbers in garden landscaping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe size is what makes a sleeper so useful. At 195mm deep, a single course gives a substantial edge or a step riser in one piece, and beds can be built up to any height by stacking courses and fixing them together with landscaping screws or timber connectors. The 95mm thickness gives the weight and rigidity to hold back soil without flexing, and the flat faces sit squarely on one another so a wall goes up quickly with no need for mortar or foundations on smaller structures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePressure treatment drives preservative deep into the timber under vacuum, protecting against fungal decay, rot, and insect attack in the persistently damp conditions a sleeper sits in. Unlike reclaimed railway sleepers, which are treated with creosote and can leach tar in warm weather, green treated sleepers are clean to handle and better suited to gardens, seating areas, and anywhere children play. Fix with long landscaping screws and galvanised or stainless fixings, and treat all cut ends with end grain preservative, as cutting exposes untreated timber at the core.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"accordion\" class=\"product-page__accordian\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"collapse_specs\" class=\"collapse show\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-page__spec-table-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"product-page__spec-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"product-page__spec-table__heading\"\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e95mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"product-page__spec-table__heading\"\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2400mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Home \u0026 Trade","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55403706319175,"sku":"SLEEP01","price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1016\/7759\/6999\/files\/95_x_195mm_Green_Treated_Sleeper_2.4m.jpg?v=1791879270","url":"https:\/\/homeandtrade.co.uk\/products\/95-x-195mm-green-treated-sleeper-2-4m","provider":"Home \u0026 Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
