Popular wood privacy fence styles
These are the main wood privacy styles customers compare when deciding what look and level of privacy they want.
Dog Ear Privacy Fence
A clean, traditional wood fence style with vertical pickets. Good for backyards, pets, and straightforward privacy.
Board-on-Board Fence
Overlapping boards reduce visibility gaps and create a heavier, more finished privacy fence.
Shadowbox Fence
Alternating pickets give both sides a finished look while allowing more airflow than a fully closed fence.
Horizontal Wood Fence
A modern privacy fence with clean horizontal lines. Great for upgraded outdoor spaces and custom homes.
Cap & Trim Fence
Adds a top cap and trim detail for a more polished, finished appearance compared to basic privacy fencing.
Steel Post Wood Fence
Wood fence boards paired with steel posts for added strength, straighter lines, and better long-term durability.
Different kinds of wood fencing
The wood you choose affects appearance, cost, durability, and maintenance. These are the main options customers compare.

Warmer appearance and natural resistance. Costs more, but gives a higher-end finished look.
