Project Showcase: this split-rail cedar fence job is one of our favorites. Wrapped the whole property line — from the barn's side yard out along the pasture, with a matching cedar gate for easy access in and out.

Split-rail is a great look for acreages and horse properties around Springfield — open sightlines, budget-friendly, and it still holds up to years of Missouri weather when it's built right. Notice the double-braced gate corners — that's the difference between a gate that sags in a year and one that swings smooth for a decade.

🤔 Fence Trivia Thursday! Check out this cedar double gate we just wrapped up — horizontal boards, staggered lines, and those black decorative strap hinges holding the whole thing together.

Quick guess: how many hinges does it usually take to hang a heavy double gate like this one so both sides swing smooth for years instead of sagging?

A) 2 total B) 4 (2 per side) C) 6+ depending on the gate's size and weight

Drop your guess in the comments! 👇 Hint: bigger gates almost always need more support than people expect — that's exactly why we never cut corners on hardware.

Fresh off the crew's trailer — this cedar dog-ear privacy fence and matching gate just wrapped up! 🌲

We tied it right into the house, kept the line straight down a tricky side yard, and set every post deep enough to handle whatever Missouri weather throws at it. The heavy-duty hinges and self-latching gate hardware mean it'll swing smooth for years, not just for the first season.

There's nothing like watching bare dirt turn into a finished, private backyard in just a couple days. If you've been eyeing a fence project of your own, let's get you on the schedule before fall fills up.

New cedar horizontal privacy fence, wrapped up this week. 🌲

We ran the boards horizontal with a matching double gate — solid black hardware, hinges and latch set to swing true for years. Clean lines, no gaps where they matter, and it follows the grade instead of fighting it. That's the difference between a fence that's put up and a fence that's built.

If your back yard needs privacy before the weather turns, now's the time to get on the schedule. Free estimates in Springfield and all surrounding areas.

🤔 Fence Fact Monday: how long do you think a cedar fence like this one actually lasts?

A: 2-3 years B: 5-7 years C: 15-20+ years (with basic upkeep)

If you guessed C, you're right! Cedar is naturally resistant to rot and bugs, and when it's installed correctly — posts set deep, boards fitted tight, hardware that isn't a bargain-bin latch — it'll easily outlast most other wood options. This fresh backyard fence and gate is a good example of what "built right" looks like from day one.
