Choose the right fence for your yard with Lowe’s extensive collection of wooden fence options. A wooden fence combines affordability, classic appeal and essential privacy, enhancing your home’s exterior while defining your property boundaries. Lowe’s offers a variety of wood fencing styles well suited for safeguarding your backyard, creating an enclosed space for pets and children, or adding decorative charm to your outdoor landscape.
Types of Wooden Fences
Wooden fences come in multiple styles, each designed for different purposes and aesthetics. Whether you prefer the traditional charm of picket fences, the rustic appeal of split-rail fences or the substantial privacy offered by stockade fences, Lowe’s has the wooden fence that fits your needs.
Wood Privacy Fences
If privacy is your priority, consider a wood privacy fence. Popular styles include stockade, dog-eared, board-on-board and horizontal wood fences. Stockade-style fences with flush pickets offer maximum seclusion, while dog-eared fences provide a timeless look suitable for most residential yards. Board-on-board fences feature overlapping vertical pickets for enhanced privacy, and horizontal fences give a contemporary and sleek appearance. Additionally, shadowbox fences offer partial visibility with a stylish, modern look.
Decorative Wooden Fences
For decorative appeal, consider wooden lattice fencing or spaced-picket fences. Lattice fences add visual interest and can serve as a beautiful backdrop for climbing plants and flowers, while spaced-picket fences define your yard without obstructing views, ideal for front yards or gardens.

Choosing the Right Wooden Fence
Selecting the right wooden fence involves considering certain factors:
-
Wood Type: Options include pressure treated lumber, cedar, pine, redwood and more. Ideal for humid climates, pressure treated wood is resistant to rot and insects. Cedar fences naturally resist decay and offer a beautiful, rich color, and redwood fencing delivers lasting durability and elegant style.
-
Fence Height: Common heights for privacy fences range from 4 to 8 feet. Lower fences work better for decorative purposes or defining gardens, while taller fences are essential for privacy and security.
Maintenance and Installation
Proper care extends the life of your wooden fence. Applying a high-quality wood sealer or stain protects against the elements and insects, helping ensure lasting beauty and strength. Regular inspections and timely repairs, such as replacing damaged slats or hardware, will help maintain structural integrity.
Installing a wooden fence can be straightforward with prebuilt wood fence panels available at Lowe’s. Individual pickets or panels come in various designs, making customization easier. Consider fence gate kits to simplify gate installation.
