Privacy, Style, and Strength! This is our most popular fence! If you plan to stay in your home in Fort Worth for a long time and want a fence that looks great and will last, you’ll want to go with our Standard, 6 ft. cedar fence with metal posts. This fence is our best-seller and the best value for the cost. This fence can be easily upgraded with stain and trim for a more streamlined look to add curb appeal.
Pickets
All of our pickets are Cedar. Why do we only use Cedar? Our standard fence in Fort Worth includes 6″ pickets with a top trim, but we offer 3″ pickets, dog-ear style for a slightly lower cost. Before we install the pickets on the fence, we inspect the quality. Pickets that do not meet our standards are returned to the manufacturer and replaced (at no cost). Pickets are available pre-stained, or we can apply the stain after the pickets are installed. More info on Fence Staining
Rails
We use 2×4 rough-cut cedar rails rather than the 2×3 smooth cut cedar rails that other companies use. Rough-cut cedar is a better grade of wood than smooth cut cedar, takes stain better, and gives your fence an overall better look. Most companies use smooth-cut cedar because it is more cost-effective. We use 2×4 rails instead of 2×3 because they are thicker, last longer and are more resistant to deterioration.
Top Trim
This is a 1x4x8 cedar trim that goes on top of the fence to give it a streamlined look. This is included with our Fort Worth Standard Fence, but is optional. Dog-eared pickets without the top trim are available for a lower cost.
Posts
The metal posts that we use are heavy gauge, galvanized steel posts. The posts for a 6 ft fence are set 8 ft apart, and 3 ft (36″) into the ground using Maximizer concrete. We attach the metal posts to the fence using Simpson brackets, which is one solid piece of steel, rather than multiple piece brackets. Wood posts are also available.
Kickboard (Rot Board)
Lifetime Fences in Fort Worth are installed with the pickets raised and a 2×6 pressure-treated board on the bottom to protect the pickets from rotting, water damage, and weed-eater damage.
This is our Standard Cedar Fence with 6″ Cedar Pickets, Side-by Side Style, with top trim and a kickerboard. The price you are quoted for our Lifetime Standard Fence includes everything described above, with no additional charges for permits, site preparation, old fence removal, or any other charge.
Upgrade Options
Top Cap: For a little extra per foot, a 2×6 cedar top cap can be added to give the fence a finished, streamlined look.
Arched Trim: An alternative to the standard trim, this arched trim adds a unique look to the fence.
Corbels: Decorative wood pieces add further customization and curb appeal to the fence
Boxed Posts: Posts are boxed in with wood to hide the posts.
