Wood Fencing

Wood Fencing adds privacy, security, and natural curb appeal to homes and businesses, and the right supplies and tools make planning, installation, and maintenance faster and more reliable. Browse wood fence panels, pickets, rails, and posts in cedar, redwood, and pressure-treated pine, along with gates, lattice toppers, and post caps for a custom look. Pair quality lumber with galvanized or stainless fasteners, corrosion-resistant hinges and latches, and concrete mix to build a fence that stands up to weather.

For layout and installation, use measuring tapes, marking paint, and string lines to map boundaries and stay straight. A post hole digger or power auger saves time on deep, uniform holes; levels and post levels keep posts plumb; and a wheelbarrow or compact mixer makes setting concrete clean and consistent. Circular saws and miter saws deliver accurate cuts on rails and pickets, while a cordless impact driver or framing nailer speeds fastening. Clamps, chisels, and a block plane help fine-tune gates and tight fits. Don’t forget PPE: work gloves, eye protection, hearing protection, and dust masks.

Choose your style—privacy, shadowbox, board-on-board, horizontal slat, picket, or split rail—and match it to your site, slope, and local code. Pressure-treated posts resist rot in-ground, while cedar and redwood offer natural decay resistance and rich color. Use exterior wood screws, coated nails, and hot-dip galvanized hardware to reduce staining and rust. Finish with stain or sealant to protect against UV and moisture; a pump sprayer and brush make application quick.

Plan for long-term care with deck cleaners, soft washing nozzles, and brighteners to refresh aging boards. Keep spare pickets, rails, and fasteners on hand for quick repairs. With the right wood fencing supplies, hardware, and installation tools, DIYers and pros can build durable, attractive fences that boost property value. Reduce noise and improve curb appeal too.
