8 ft Cedar Cap and Trim Privacy Fence with 6 ft Double Gate on E 74th Pl in Tulsa, OK
Fence System Details
Includes details of a 8-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.
Most of this fence stands eight feet tall: 275 feet of cedar with a cap board and trim, carried on square steel posts with four backrails instead of the usual three. We stair stepped the back fence line to follow the existing fence rather than raking it to the grade, so each section keeps a level top. Another 93 feet runs at six feet with the same cap and trim detail. Three welded steel framed gates serve the yard, including a ten foot double gate on posts set 36 inches deep. Eight foot pickets catch far more wind than six foot pickets, and in Tulsa that load is the reason for the extra rail, the steel posts, and the gate depth.

275 feet of this fence stands eight feet tall in cedar with a cap board and trim, and the back line is stair stepped to follow the existing fence. Four backrails instead of three keep an eight foot picket flat over its full height.

Privacy Fence Welded Steel Framed Double Gate (6' Tall, 8' to 10' Wide)
The ten foot double gate hangs on steel gate posts set 36 inches deep. That depth earns its keep on a gate this wide, because every swing over the years pulls against those two posts.

Privacy Fence Welded Steel Framed Walk Gate
