6 ft Cedar Cap and Trim Privacy Fence with Walk Gate on S 45th E Ave, Bixby, OK

Fence System Details

Includes details of a 6-Foot Wood Fence installation in Bixby. This fencing project built by Empire Fence Company may include other types of fences or fence materials as specified below.

Rain running down the end grain at the top of a picket is what starts most wood fence decay, and a cap board is the simple answer to it. This fence carries a 2×6 cedar cap with 1×4 cedar trim over 5/8 by 3.5 inch cedar pickets, so water sheds off a horizontal board instead of soaking into every cut end. Underneath, three Douglas fir 2×4 backrails span 2 1/2 inch square steel posts set in concrete, all nailed with galvanized ring shank nails. The cedar walk gate matches, on heavy duty hinges with a secure latch. Cap and trim also squares off the top line, which suits the newer streets around Bixby.
