Whether it is to keep critters in or out, define property lines or outdoor spaces, create visual interest or add privacy, a well-thought-out and properly constructed fence adds immediate “curb appeal” to any address. From rustic to fancy, using real wood in your fence design adds the warmth and beauty that man-made products just can’t duplicate.
Western Red Cedar Fencing
Prized for its natural durability and workability, Western Red Cedar has always been a top choice wood for outdoor fences. For those wishing to create a traditional privacy fence at an economical price, standard 5′ or 6′ fence grade boards are a great choice. The fence boards are installed vertically by securing them to 2×4’s that have been screwed or nailed into fence posts.
Another option for a privacy fence that adds a bit more character and interest is to install Western Red Cedar fence boards, deck boards, or fascia grade boards vertically between posts. Here is a great example
