At Fence Central all of our wood fences are custom built onsite, ensuring that only the finest materials go into your fence. Pre-built wooden panels from your local hardware store may make for a convenient and cheap fence, but are they really the best? We think not. Custom-built wooden fences are far sturdier, more beautiful, and longer lasting than the rough-cut pine and small, rust-prone nails of hardware store fences.
In addition to high-quality premium pressure-treated 2x4s, a wooden fence from Fence Central is stabilized with concrete gate posts. That means that come hurricane season, you don’t have to worry about your fence becoming debris. We provide a one year workmanship warranty on every fence we install.
Stockade
A stockade fence is made up of tall, side-by-side pickets of wood. As the name implies, the fence’s main purpose is to separate out one part of land from another, making this style ideally suited to people who want privacy.
Board-on-board
Another style of privacy fence is called board-on-board or board-to-board. This type of fence features tall, overlapping vertical pickets. The overlapping pickets help to ensure that even if the boards shrink with age and dry weather, people on the other side of the fence will never be able to see through the cracks.
Shadowbox
A shadowbox fence is very similar to a board-on board fence. So similar, in face, that some people think they’re the same thing. Both types of fences feature staggered pickets. With a board-on-board fence, someone on the outside of the fence would be unable to see inside the fence, no matter what angle she’s looking from. With a shadowbox fence, however, someone looking at an angle from the outside would be able to see a little on the inside of the fence. Faced directly, a shadowbox fence is private like a board-on-board. Faced from an angle, a shadowbox is semi-private.
Ranch Rail
Ranch rail fences are shorter and feature spaced horizontal or X’ed rails. These fences can come with 2, 3, or 4 horizontal rails, making them ideal for decoration around a more rustic or country-themed home or an actual ranch with livestock.
Picket
Finally, the beloved picket fence. Picket fences are typically shorter and are primarily for decorative purposes and to contain an area for small children or pets. A picket fence on the right home can add a lot of charm and visual allure (not to mention resale value). Fence Central offers to styles of wooden picket fence, French gothic picket (shown to the left) and dog ear spaced picket.
