Harrison Fence uses top grade western red cedar as the lumber of choice for our wood fences. Cedar is one of the most naturally rot-resistant woods and will last for many years. Posts are set 24 inches deep in concrete with horizontal 2”x4” rails face-nailed to the posts. Harrison Fence uses ring-shank galvanized nails which perform like screws and resist rust. Other wood options are available upon request. Please see our Decorative Wood Fences page for more variations on the wood privacy fence.
Privacy Fences
Privacy Fence with 4in Picket
This is the traditional cedar privacy fence. This fence uses 4 inch wide vertical pickets with what is know as the “dog-ear” top. The top of the picket has a slightly rounded. This style of fence provides privacy and security for your property. The most standard height for this fence is 6 feet tall, however, this fence can be built any height (local building-codes permitting) to suit your needs.

Privacy Fence with 6in Picket
Another version of the traditional cedar privacy fence, this application uses a wider picket. Again, this privacy fence style will provide maximum privacy and security for your property. This fence can also be constructed in any height (local building-codes permitting) to suit your needs.
Privacy Fences
Shadow Box Fence
The shadowbox style fence provides privacy and architectural variation for your property. Viewed from an angle, the pickets do have visible spacing, but viewed from straight-on, the fence acts as a complete privacy fence. This is a good application for neighbors who wish to have a finished-look on both sides of the fence. This fence is also good for areas of high wind as it allows air to move through the shadowbox fence.

Lattice Top Fence 1
This lattice-top style fence combines the privacy fence with a different look. The top of the fence has an open, airy feel and allows some visibility while providing a visual barrier. The bottom portion of the fence is the traditional privacy fence with vertical pickets in a solid, secure style. The posts in this picture are set flush with the top of the fence. Posts can also be set to be visible above the top rail. This fence can be constructed to your height preference.

Lattice Top Fence 2
Lattice-Top style fence can also be constructed with posts raised above the top of the fence line as in this example or with posts flush to the top as in the previous example. The pickets in this example are set with a spacing of 1 inch between pickets to allow for an even more open feel.

Top Cap Fence 1
The top cap style fence is the traditional privacy style fence with an added finishing touch. The top cap can be 2”x4”, 2”x6” or with larger post, we can even use a 2”x8” board for the top. Posts can be flush to the top of the fence as in this example for a smooth, continuous look along the top of the fence. Typically, a 1”x4” fascia trim board will be secured under the top cap to finish the look while concealing the tops of the pickets.

Top Cap Fence 2
The top-cap style of fence can be dressed up to bring more architectural variation. Using larger posts or raising the post tops above the finished top of the fence can accentuate this style of fence. This example shows larger posts with decorative caps as well as a larger fascia trim board.

Top Cap Fence 3
Harrison Fence constructs top-cap fences with the horizontal rails face-nailed to the back side of the posts, with pickets secured to the rails which creates a ‘framed-in’ look for each fence section. This example shows the standard 4”x4” post, but raised above the fence and with chamfered, dadoed tops. The fence steps-down in sections to follow the sloping grade of the property.

Top Cap Fence 4
This example of top-cap style fence shows the difference between complete privacy and open-picket styles. The taller portion of this fence is completely private, while the lower portion of the fence has one inch spacing between pickets for a less-private effect at the front of the property.

Top Cap Fence 5
This example of top-cap style fence again has the posts raised above the finished height of the fence. These posts also have decorative caps. This fence is seven feet tall and surrounds the perimeter of a neighborhood to provide the ultimate privacy fence with style and security.
