Fences can take many sizes, shapes and designs ranging from heavy, solid boards that deter intruders to lightweight open lattice-work that invites cooling breezes. But no matter the style or function of the fence, wood is usually the construction material of choice. And you can make no better choice than Western Red Cedar.

Western Red Cedar should be your only choice when you consider its unbeatable quality, appearance and longevity. The natural oils in cedar help make the wood resistant to decay and insect attack, increasing its durability and weatherability without the use of chemical treatments. It's dimensionally stable ­ much more so than other woods ­ so there is minimal shrinkage; your fence will stay straight and sturdy. And you'll find cedar easy to work with; no special tools are needed. Above all, the wood has a beauty all its own with colors, grains, and textures unmatched by any other fencing material. If you want colors other than cedar's own natural tones, the wood can easily be stained. Properly constructed and maintained, a cedar fence will look good for years, adding prestige and value to your home and garden.
