Wood Fences
Wood privacy fences are a popular choice for homeowners who want to create a private and secure outdoor space. There are several different types of wood privacy fences, each with its own unique characteristics and style. Here are some of the most common types:
Solid Board Fence: A solid board fence is constructed using boards that are tightly spaced with no gaps between them. This type of fence provides maximum privacy and security, as it completely blocks the view from both sides. Solid board fences are typically made from cedar or pressure-treated pine.
Shadowbox Fence: A shadowbox fence is built with overlapping pickets on alternating sides of the fence. This design creates a visually appealing look, as it allows light and air to pass through while still providing privacy. Shadowbox fences are often made from cedar or redwood.
Stockade Fence: A stockade fence consists of tightly spaced, vertical pickets that are installed side by side with no gaps. This type of fence offers excellent privacy and noise reduction. Stockade fences are commonly made from cedar or pressure-treated pine.
Board-on-Board Fence: A board-on-board fence is constructed with overlapping vertical boards on both sides of the fence. This design provides complete privacy and a seamless look from both sides, as there are no visible gaps. Board-on-board fences are typically made from cedar or redwood.
Lattice Top Fence: A lattice top fence combines solid boards with lattice panels on the upper portion of the fence. The lattice adds a decorative element and allows some light to pass through while still maintaining privacy. Lattice top fences are often made from cedar or pressure-treated pine.
Picket Fence: While not as private as the other types mentioned, a picket fence can still provide some level of privacy. Picket fences are constructed with evenly spaced vertical pickets and are usually lower in height. They are often made from cedar, pine, or vinyl.
It's important to note that the choice of wood and the quality of construction play a significant role in the durability and longevity of a wood privacy fence. Regular maintenance, such as staining or painting, can help extend the lifespan of the fence and maintain its appearance.
