What Is Horizontal Wood Fencing?
A horizontal wood fence takes the traditional idea of a fence and gives it a fresh, modern twist. Instead of vertical boards, the planks are installed horizontally, creating a sleek and contemporary look. It’s a popular choice for homeowners who want their outdoor spaces to feel updated and stylish without sacrificing functionality.
Thicker, Resilient Pickets
Our horizontal fencing features thicker wood boards for the pickets, providing superior durability and a sleek, modern aesthetic. These boards are less prone to warping or cracking, ensuring your fence maintains its strength and appearance over time.
Reinforced Horizontal Rails
To support the horizontal design, we use robust, premium-grade rails that prevent sagging and maintain structural integrity. These rails are designed to handle the added weight and tension of thicker boards.
Heavy-Duty, Stable Posts
Horizontal fences require strong, well-anchored posts to support the unique design. We use treated, heavy-duty wood posts that resist rot and warping, ensuring a solid foundation for your fence.

Stylish and Unique
Horizontal fencing has a clean, modern vibe that instantly elevates the look of your property. Whether your home is contemporary or more traditional, this fence style blends in beautifully while giving your yard a unique touch.
Built to Handle Florida Weather
South Florida’s heat, humidity, and occasional storms can be tough on outdoor structures, but a horizontal wood fence is up to the challenge. Using durable materials like pressure-treated wood or cedar ensures it can stand up to the elements. With a little care, it’ll stay strong and look great for years.
Customizable for Your Needs
One of the best things about horizontal fencing is how flexible it is. You can choose tighter spacing between the boards for maximum privacy or leave small gaps to let the breeze flow through. This makes it perfect for areas like backyards, patios, or pool spaces where you want privacy without feeling completely closed off.
Adds Value to Your Home
A horizontal wood fence doesn’t just look good—it can actually boost your property value. Its modern design is eye-catching and appeals to potential buyers, especially in South Florida, where outdoor living spaces are such a big deal.
Affordable and Worth the Investment
While horizontal fences might cost a little more than traditional vertical ones, the added curb appeal and durability make them worth it. In South Florida, prices typically range from $20 to $45 per linear foot, depending on the type of wood and the design details you choose.
Low Maintenance
Keeping your horizontal fence in good shape is simple. Give it a quick clean now and then to remove dirt, and apply a stain or sealant every couple of years to protect it from the sun and rain. A little upkeep goes a long way in keeping it looking sharp.
