Spruce & Fir

Spruce & Fir are commonly used for their durability and affordability. They are economically enforced while also being easy to install. Our products are also pre-stained to supply a sealed, pressure-treated board that repels insects.

Pine & More

This section of wood includes Southern Yellow Pine, Red Pine, and Redwood. Our products are treated to be rot and insect-resistant fit for certain areas around the country. They are also chemically treated in two levels: ground contact and above-ground. 

Ground contact
  • Posts and framework
Above-ground
  • Fence pickets, boards, and rails

Specialty

Specific regions in the United States have more popular styles than others. Specifically, the most notable styles are post-and-rail or split rails. These options require various categories of wood to produce these specialty styles. 

Model specialty fence styles include Split Rail and Sawn Rail fencing in either 3-to-4-rail configurations. Wire mesh can also be applied to add an extra layer of security for animal containment.
