Product Overview
A Horizontal fence is more stylish and contemporary than traditional vertical board fencing. This makes cedar an excellent material choice. Ranging from deep red to purplish brown in colour, cedar will enhance the horizontal design for a truly modern look. But a horizontal fence does more than class up your backyard. It will also make your yard look bigger, as the linear boards make any space they enclose appear longer and larger. This makes horizontal fencing a popular choice for homeowners with smaller yards. Construction can be a bit trickier than vertical fencing, as the boards must be installed end-to-end and properly aligned, but the end result is well worth any additional time. Five-foot and six-foot height options are available, and the solid board structure provides excellent privacy and safety for kids, pets and personal property. Cedar’s natural oils offer strong resistance to rot, decay and insects and it’s less prone to twisting or warping than most other woods. This means your cedar fence can have a lifespan of up to 30 years. Cedar also weathers nicely to a grey, rustic hue, but you can stain it to complement your home’s exterior décor.
