Durable and Timeless Fence Options for Your Home
Find the Perfect Style to Match Your Home

Privacy Wood Fence
As Raleigh grows, homeowners seek ways to enjoy their yards while keeping privacy. Our privacy wood fences are made from pressure-treated wood that resists rot and warping. This is key for the Triangle’s humid summers and heavy rains. The solid panel design blocks outside views and cuts street noise—great for homes by busy roads like Six Forks or Glenwood Avenue. It’s a smart choice for families wanting a peaceful, private outdoor space.

Shadowbox Wood Fence
When summer heat hits Raleigh, a fence that allows airflow makes a big difference. Our shadowbox wood fences use alternating boards to provide ventilation while blocking views. This design keeps outdoor spaces cooler. It looks great from both sides, which neighbors love in close communities like Five Points and Brier Creek. The shadowbox design mixes comfort and style, fitting well with Raleigh’s residential vibe.

Horizontal Wood Fence
Raleigh’s mix of historic and modern homes makes the horizontal wood fence a great fit. Its clean, contemporary lines offer a sleek upgrade for both traditional brick houses and new builds. The horizontal wood fence not only looks great but also provides privacy. It uses high-quality lumber that can handle Raleigh’s changing weather. From humid summers to cold winters, it maintains its shape and charm, giving homeowners a stylish, lasting fence.

Board on Board Wood Fence
In Raleigh, where strong summer storms and winds occur, the board on board fence is a solid choice. Its overlapping vertical boards create a strong barrier that offers both privacy and durability. This design works well for homes in open areas or near wide streets with more wind exposure. The board on board style is designed for durability. It blends strength with a classic look that suits Raleigh’s neighborhoods.

Cap and Trim (Framed) Wood Fence
Homeowners wanting a strong yet stylish fence often choose the cap and trim design. The new frame enhances the fence's appearance. It also protects against Raleigh's heavy rain and moisture. The cap helps shield the wood from water damage, reducing warping and extending the fence’s lifespan. It’s a smart pick for anyone wanting a polished look and long-lasting durability.
Why Choose Us For Raleigh Wood Fence Installation
Pressure-Treated Pine Lumber
Our wood fences are crafted using premium pressure-treated pine lumber, known for its exceptional resistance to decay, rot, and insect damage. This treatment significantly extends the lifespan of your fence, ensuring that it remains a reliable and sturdy feature of your property for years to come.
Fully-Encapsulated Posts
We go a step further by using pressure-treated wooden posts that are fully encapsulated and set in concrete. This advanced method protects the fence from water and ground chemicals, which are common culprits in the degradation of wood. Raleigh's clay-rich soil keeps moisture longer than sandy soils. This makes post encapsulation very important for lasting durability. Encapsulating the posts makes your fence durable. It also offers better resistance to the environment.
Welded Galvanized Steel Frame
Our fence gates have a welded galvanized steel frame. This adds strength and longevity, and they are finished with a powder coat. This combination provides unmatched durability, protecting the gate from rust and corrosion while ensuring it remains a secure entry point for your property. This is especially helpful in Raleigh. In summer, humidity can go above 70%. This raises the risk of metal corrosion if the coating isn’t proper.
High-Quality Gate Hardware
The gates we install are equipped with top-tier hardware, including hot-dipped galvanized ring shank nails. These nails offer superior holding power, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the gate under various weather conditions. Additionally, the high-quality gate hardware ensures smooth operation and long-lasting performance.
Heavy-Duty Lumber
We use only heavy-duty lumber in our construction. This ensures your fence can withstand tough conditions. Our careful building methods guarantee your fence stays strong and reliable, even in harsh weather. Raleigh residents know the strong storms that hit the Triangle, often with wind gusts over 50 mph. That's why our lumber and design are chosen to handle this.
Precise Specifications
Our fences are built to the highest possible building standards, with careful attention to every detail. We use:
- 1×6 pickets for a strong, classic look
- 2×4 rails for robust support
- 4×6 gate hinge posts for extra strength in gate areas
- 4×4 posts to provide a solid structural foundation
These dimensions are not just standard—they are specifically chosen to meet structural requirements for durability in North Carolina’s mix of clay soils and variable weather, helping your fence stay true and secure over time.

Caring for Your Wood Fence Year After Year
Sealing
To protect your wood fence from water damage and UV rays, seal it within 30 days to 6 weeks after installation. Use a high-quality wood sealer with UV stabilizers. This creates a barrier against moisture, preventing rot and decay. Sealers come in transparent and semi-transparent options, letting you choose how much of the wood’s grain shows. For the best results, reseal your fence every year. This is crucial in Raleigh, which sees about 46 inches of rain yearly and long humid spells that can wear down untreated wood.
Staining
Staining enhances the color of your wood fence and protects it from the elements. Before staining, check that the wood is completely dry with the “sprinkle test.” If water droplets are absorbed, it’s ready for staining. Like sealing, stain your fence 30 days to 6 weeks post-installation. Reapply the stain annually or more often based on environmental conditions. In Raleigh, with sunny summers and high UV indexes, staining helps slow fading and keeps the wood looking fresh.
Painting
Painting your wood fence adds color and extra protection. Start with an alkyd oil-based primer for good adhesion, then use acrylic latex paint. Reapply the paint annually or as needed, depending on weather and exposure. Ensure the wood is dry before priming and painting to avoid trapping moisture, which can cause peeling. In neighborhoods with older trees, like Oakwood or Five Points, painting helps prevent mildew from shade and dampness.
Cleaning
Regular cleaning is key to maintaining your wood fence’s appearance and longevity. Use a mild soap and water solution to remove dirt, mold, and mildew. A pressure washer is useful, but avoid focusing on one spot for too long to prevent damage. After cleaning, consider reapplying the sealer or stain to protect against the elements. This is especially helpful in Raleigh’s clay-heavy soils, where fences near the ground often collect red dirt and mud after heavy storms.
Inspection, Repairing, and Replacement
Regularly inspect your wood fence to spot potential issues early. Look for signs of wear like cracks, splinters, or loose boards. Minor damages can be fixed with wood filler, nails, or by replacing boards. For major repairs or structural issues, seek professional help. AAA Fence and Deck Company offers expert repair and replacement services. We provide a warranty to keep your fence sturdy and secure. This is a smart move in Raleigh, especially with spring storms bringing strong winds and falling branches that can cause damage.
How often should I seal a wood fence in Raleigh, NC?
In Raleigh’s humid climate, rainfall averages about 46 inches each year. Summers have strong UV exposure. It’s best to seal a wood fence every 12 to 18 months. Sealing creates a barrier against moisture, mold, and sun damage. These issues are common in the Triangle’s weather. Regular sealing extends your fence’s lifespan. It also keeps it looking fresh, despite heavy rain, humidity, and bright summer sun that Raleigh homeowners face each year.
