8 ft Cedar Cap and Trim Privacy Fence with Walk Gate on S Florence Ave in Tulsa, OK

Fence System Details

Includes details of a 8-Foot Wood Fence installation in Tulsa. This fencing project built by Empire Fence Company may include other types of fences or fence materials as specified below.

At this height the cap board earns its keep twice over: the 2×6 cedar cap and 1×4 cedar trim close the top cleanly and keep water off the end grain of tall pickets. Those pickets are 5/8 inch by 3.5 inch by 8 foot cedar, carried on four Douglas fir 2×4 back rails rather than three, because a board that long needs the extra support to stay flat. Posts are 2 1/2 inch square steel set in concrete, sized for the wind a tall solid fence catches. We put a walk gate in the run using the same pickets and rails. Tulsa properties needing real screening from a neighboring building are exactly where this build makes sense.
