Cedar Privacy Fence Part 1

The beginning of another cedar fence project located in Jacksonville. This section is 7'11" in order to block the light from an existing flood light located next door.
4" x 6" pressure treated post set 36" deep were used for the tall section which is 60' in length. 4" x 4" pt post were set for the remaining 6' tall sections to be located at each end.

Holes dug, post set, plumbed, and aligned.








Post tops trimmed and rails attached ready for fence boards.
The finished run with 3/4" thick cedar fence boards and cedar top cap. Fence is constructed with screws in all rails and fence boards, no nails or staples were used.  A nice element to this fence is the slight angle through the stand of trees.
More to come.

  1. We built a fence with metal poles, cedar pickets, and pine runners. Hopefully this will last a decade or two—sure was not cheap, but it was fun to build. Becca made sure we had the nicest gate hardware for all three gates. We could not be happier with the results!lattice fence
