MODERN CEDAR PRIVACY FENCE WITH CLEAN HORIZONTAL LINES.

Horizontal cedar fencing gives Dallas backyards a clean, modern look with strong architectural lines. Dallas Fixman builds each fence to fit the property, installs properly set posts in concrete, and can tailor the gate and finish to match.

The modern, architectural standard

HORIZONTAL FENCING

Horizontal picket fencing runs the boards parallel to the ground rather than vertically, mounting them to structural posts or an internal frame.

Privacy

85–100% customizable privacy. Privacy depends entirely on gap width (reveals). You can build them with zero gap (tongue and groove or overlapped), small 1/2-inch gaps for light and airflow, or wide gaps for a decorative screen.

Aesthetics

Sleek, contemporary, and highend. Horizontal lines visually elongate the yard, making outdoor spaces feel wider and larger.

Dallas Market

Highly sought after in modern North Texas neighborhoods. Offers massive curb appeal and a upscale, custom look that immediately sets a property apart.

Best Used For

Modern builds, highend residential renovations, courtyard walls, and pool surrounds.

HORIZONTAL FENCE
INGREDIENTS

Building a fence isn’t rocket science, and if you’re planning to do it yourself, we’re happy to help. Below is the basic material recipe for one typical 8-ft Horizontal Cedar section: cedar boards installed horizontally, rails or supports, one steel post, concrete, hardware, and fasteners. Unlike traditional vertical fencing, horizontal boards need proper support and spacing to stay straight and maintain clean, even lines. And since each section includes just one post, remember to add one extra post assembly to finish the end of your run one more post, plus concrete, grip ties, screws, and a cap.

Use our fence calculator to measure your fence line and get a starting material estimate, then double-check everything on site before you buy. And if halfway through the project you run out of patience, daylight, or enthusiasm, give Dallas Fixman a call. We can take it from there.

One important thing before the first shovel hits the ground: call 811 before you dig. It’s free, and it gets underground utility lines marked before you start setting posts.
