Know before you buy
Western Red Cedar is naturally resistant to rot, decay, and insect damage, making it an ideal choice for outdoor structures. It also holds its shape well over time, resisting the warping and shrinking often seen in other wood species.
While the cedar pickets provide the aesthetic and weather resistance, Douglas Fir is used for the rails because of its exceptional strength and stiffness. This combination ensures the fence panels remain structurally sound and straight over many years.
These panels are supplied in their natural, unfinished state. We recommend applying a high-quality exterior stain or sealant shortly after installation to protect the wood's color and extend its lifespan.
The dog-ear design refers to the cut corners at the top of each picket. It is a classic, traditional style that softens the look of the fence line compared to a flat-top picket.
At 6 feet tall and 8 feet wide, these panels are substantial and will require at least two people to lift and position safely during installation. Ensure your fence posts are set securely in concrete before attaching the panels.
Yes, you can paint or stain these panels. If you choose to paint, ensure the wood is clean and dry, and use a high-quality exterior primer and paint designed for cedar to ensure proper adhesion.
