Horizontal slat fences have become a signature of modern landscape design. The boards run across rather than up and down, which creates clean lines, makes a yard look wider and works beautifully with new construction, contemporary homes and outdoor living areas. Gaps between slats can be tight for full privacy or open a little for light and air.
We build horizontal fences for homeowners in Nashville and across Middle Tennessee. Because long horizontal boards can sag or warp, we use strong posts, closely spaced supports and straight, stable lumber, and we plan the layout so the fence looks even from end to end.

FAQ
Common questions about horizontal slat fences
Will horizontal boards sag?
Long boards can, which is why posts are set closer together and framing is built for them.
Is it as private as a regular fence?
With tight spacing it is fully private. With small gaps it filters views and lets light through.
Which woods work well?
Cedar and straight, kiln-dried lumber are common. We help you choose for your yard.
