border-inline-width

The border-inline-width CSS property defines the width of the logical inline borders of an element, which maps to a physical border width depending on the element's writing mode, directionality, and text orientation. It corresponds to the border-top-width and border-bottom-width, or border-left-width, and border-right-width property depending on the values defined for writing-mode, direction, and text-orientation.

Try it

The border width in the other dimension can be set with border-block-width, which sets border-block-start-width, and border-block-end-width.
