Privacy shadowbox sections on a Ferndale boundary use alternating boards that let wind through the run while still closing the sightline. Check the build detail before fixing on a height.
Privacy lattice topped panels on a Ferndale boundary use an open decorative header that buys extra height without the mass of solid board. Check the build detail before fixing on a height.
Privacy reinforced wind runs on a Ferndale boundary use closer post spacing and heavier rails where a boundary takes constant exposure. Check the build detail before fixing on a height.
Privacy fence lines through Ferndale follow Woodward Avenue, Nine Mile Road and Livernois Avenue across ZIP 48220 in Oakland County.

Ground falls away toward the back and they stepped the panels evenly instead of leaving a gap at the bottom. Properly done.

Third job they have done for us across two houses. Same people, same standard, same honest pricing every time.
