6 ft Cedar Dog Ear Privacy Fence with Walk Gate on N Boston Ave in Tulsa, OK

Fence System Details

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

We set 26 feet of cedar privacy fence on square steel posts at this property and hung one 4 foot walk gate. Short runs like this one usually close a gap between a house and a neighboring structure, so post placement and the picket line have to be exact from the first hole. Steel posts carry the load in the dense clay under north Tulsa, ground that swells after heavy rain and pulls back in summer heat until buried wood works loose. Cedar pickets take that same sun and humidity without cupping. City lots leave little room to work, and a compact build like this one gives you full height privacy without crowding what is left of the yard.

Privacy Fence 6' Cedar Dog Ear on Steel Posts

The 26 foot run carries full height cedar pickets on square steel posts, so a short section holds the same line and the same privacy as a long perimeter. Steel was the right call in a tight setting where a leaning fence would show immediately.

Privacy Fence Walk Gate

One 4 foot cedar walk gate opens into this yard, built from the same picket stock as the fence so the run reads as one piece. We hung it on heavy hinges because a gate in a short span gets used constantly.
