🏑 Premium Japanese Cedar Fence Installation in McKinney, TX

When it comes to building a fence that delivers privacy, durability, and long-term value, not all fences are created equal. This recent fence replacement project in McKinney, Texas is a perfect example of how the right materials and construction methods make all the difference.

πŸ”¨ Project Overview

We recently completed a 127 linear foot board-on-board fence designed for maximum privacy and long-term performance.

Key Features:

  • βœ… 6’–6’8” tall privacy fence
  • βœ… Pre-stained Japanese Cedar (Medium Brown)
  • βœ… Board-on-board construction (no gaps!)
  • βœ… (1) custom-built gate with premium hardware

This style is one of the most popular in North DFW—and for good reason.

🌳 Why Japanese Cedar?

Japanese Cedar is a premium fencing material that offers:

  • 🌿 Beautiful, consistent grain
  • πŸ›‘ Natural resistance to rot and decay
  • 🎨 Pre-stained finish for long-lasting color
  • ⏳ Extended lifespan compared to standard wood fences

By pre-staining the material before installation, we ensure better coverage, deeper penetration, and longer-lasting protection.

πŸ’ͺ Built to Last: Our Construction Standards

A fence is only as strong as how it’s built. That’s why we don’t cut corners.

πŸ”© Steel Posts Set in Concrete

We installed:

  • 2 3/8” steel posts
  • Cemented deep into the ground with Maximizer concrete

πŸ‘‰ This prevents:

  • Leaning fences
  • Premature failure
  • Wind damage issues

πŸͺ΅ Double Kickboard System

This project included:

  • Double-stacked 2x6 pressure-treated kickboards

Why it matters:

  • Protects pickets from ground moisture
  • Extends fence lifespan
  • Adds a stronger visual base

πŸ”¨ Premium Framing & Hardware

  • 2x4 cedar rails
  • Galvanized fasteners (no rust issues)
  • Simpson brackets & steel lags
  • Flat post caps for a clean finish

πŸšͺ Custom Gate Build

We installed a high-quality gate system featuring:

  • πŸ”’ 2-way locking latch
  • βš™οΈ 3 heavy-duty hinges
  • πŸ–€ Black hardware for a clean, modern look

A properly built gate is critical—this is where most fences fail first if done incorrectly.

πŸ›‘ Backed by a 10-Year Warranty

We stand behind our work with a 10-year warranty, covering:

  • Cracked or warped lumber
  • Leaning posts
  • Rusting hardware
  • Sagging gates
  • Defective components

This gives homeowners peace of mind knowing their investment is protected.

πŸ“ Why This Fence Stands Out

This isn’t just a standard fence—it’s a premium system built for performance:

βœ”οΈ Steel post foundation
βœ”οΈ Pre-stained high-quality cedar
βœ”οΈ Double kickboard protection
βœ”οΈ Professional-grade hardware
βœ”οΈ Built for North Texas weather
