Why Choose Wood Fencing?
Wood fences remain one of the most popular fencing choices for homeowners, and for good reason. Here’s why a wood fence installation might be perfect for your property:
Wood fencing brings an organic, warm aesthetic that complements any landscape design. The natural grain patterns and rich colors of wood create a welcoming appearance that enhances your home's curb appeal. As the wood weathers and ages, it develops character and charm that manufactured materials simply can't match.
From traditional to contemporary, wood fencing adapts to any architectural style. Our team can customize your fence with different heights, post caps, lattice tops, and decorative elements to create a truly unique installation that reflects your personal style.
A well-designed wood fence provides excellent privacy and security for your family and pets. Solid board fences create a secure barrier while maintaining the natural beauty that wood offers.
As a renewable resource, wood is one of the more environmentally friendly fencing options available. At Equinox Fence, we source our materials responsibly and can recommend sustainable wood varieties for your project.
Wood Fence Styles We Offer
At Equinox Fence, we provide a wide variety of wood fence styles to suit every homeowner’s needs and aesthetic preferences. All our wood fence installations feature our signature steel post system for superior durability and longevity.
Privacy Wood Fence Styles
Cedar Privacy Fence
Our premium cedar privacy fences offer complete seclusion while showcasing the natural beauty of cedar wood. Cedar's natural oils make it resistant to decay and insects, and its rich color and grain patterns create a stunning visual impact that enhances any property.
Dog-Ear Privacy Fence
This classic privacy fence style features boards with corners cut at 45-degree angles (dog-ears), creating a softer, more finished appearance. This style offers complete privacy while adding a touch of subtle design.
Shadowbox Wood Fence
The shadowbox design alternates boards on opposite sides of the fence rails, creating a fence that looks identical from both sides. This semi-private option allows for some airflow while still providing substantial privacy.
Board-on-Board Fence
Our board-on-board fences feature overlapping boards that create complete privacy while adding dimension and texture to your fence line. This style prevents gaps from forming as the wood naturally shrinks and expands with weather changes.
X-Style Wood Privacy Fence
Combining privacy with decorative elements, our X-style fences feature an "X" pattern between posts, adding architectural interest while maintaining privacy.
Stockade Fence
This traditional style features tightly placed pickets with pointed or rounded tops, creating a classic, rustic privacy barrier with historical charm.
Decorative Wood Fence Styles
Wooden Picket Fence
Perfect for front yards and decorative boundaries, our picket fences combine charm and functionality. Available in various heights and picket styles, these fences add character and definition to your landscape.
Decorative Wood Fence
For homeowners looking to make a statement, our decorative wood fences feature custom elements like lattice tops, scalloped edges, and unique post caps that elevate your property's curb appeal.
Semi-Private Wood Fence
Offering a balance between openness and privacy, our semi-private designs allow for visibility and airflow while still providing some screening. These are perfect for defining spaces without creating a solid barrier.
Specialty Wood Fence Options
PostMaster+ Wood Fence
Our exclusive PostMaster+ system combines our steel post technology with specialized wood fence designs, creating fences with unparalleled durability and minimal maintenance requirements.
Horizontal Wood Fence
Modern and stylish, our horizontal wood fences feature boards installed parallel to the ground, creating a contemporary aesthetic that's become increasingly popular in the Boise area.

Our Wood Fence Installation Process
At Equinox Fence, we believe the process of getting a new fence should be simple and stress-free. Here’s our straightforward approach to wood fence installation:
Initial Consultation
We start with a thorough consultation to understand your needs, preferences, and budget. Our team will discuss various wood options, designs, and features to help you make an informed decision.
Site Assessment
Our experts will visit your property to assess the terrain, measure the perimeter, identify any potential challenges, and determine the best placement for your wood fence.
Custom Design
Based on your input and our site assessment, we'll create a custom design for your wood fence that complements your home's architecture and meets your specific requirements.
Material Selection
We'll help you select the right type of wood for your project, considering factors like durability, maintenance requirements, and aesthetic appeal.
Professional Installation
Our skilled craftsmen will handle every aspect of the installation process, from setting posts to attaching boards and applying finishes. We use steel posts for maximum durability—a unique feature that sets our wood fences apart from the competition.
Final Inspection
Before we consider a project complete, we conduct a thorough inspection to ensure every detail meets our high standards of quality and craftsmanship.
What Sets Our Wood Fence Installation Apart
Unlike many fence contractors who use standard wood posts, Equinox Fence installs steel posts for all our wood fences in Boise. Why? Because we understand that the posts are the first failure point of any fence. Our steel post system ensures your fence remains straight and strong for years to come, even in Idaho’s varying weather conditions.
We don’t contract out our work like many large builders do. All our fence installations are performed by our own employees—skilled craftsmen who take pride in their work and are committed to delivering exceptional results. We’re careful about who we hire because we know that the quality of our team directly impacts the quality of your fence.
We stand behind our work with a 5-year craftsmanship warranty on all wood fence installations. This warranty, combined with the material warranties from our suppliers, gives you peace of mind knowing that your investment is protected.
As we like to say, “We aim to make a profit over the whole year, not on an individual fence.” This philosophy means we never cut corners or rush through a job to move on to the next. We take the time to do things right, ensuring that every fence we install is built to last.

Maintenance Tips
To help you get the most out of your wood fence investment, here are some maintenance tips:
Remove dirt, moss, and mildew with a gentle pressure wash or soft brush and mild detergent.
Reapply stain or sealant every 2-3 years to protect the wood from moisture, UV damage, and insects.
Address loose boards, protruding nails, or minor damage promptly to prevent more extensive problems.
Keep vines and plants trimmed away from your fence to prevent moisture retention and structural damage.
Check your fence after severe weather events and at the change of seasons to identify any issues that need attention.

What Our Clients Say About Our Wood Fence Installations
The timeline for wood fence installation depends on several factors, including the size of your property, fence design complexity, and weather conditions. Typically, a standard residential wood fence installation takes 2-5 days to complete. We’ll provide you with a specific timeline during your consultation.
For Idaho’s climate, we highly recommend cedar for its natural resistance to our local weather conditions and pests. However, properly treated pine can also be a good option if you’re looking for a more economical choice. During your consultation, we’ll discuss the best wood options based on your specific needs and budget.
With proper installation and maintenance, a quality wood fence can last 15-30 years. Our use of steel posts significantly extends the lifespan of our wood fences by preventing the most common cause of fence failure. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and applying a protective sealant every few years, will also help maximize your fence’s longevity.
Most municipalities in the Treasure Valley area require permits for fence installation, especially for fences over a certain height. Our team will help you navigate the permit process, ensuring all necessary approvals are obtained before we begin work.
Yes! Our experienced team specializes in tackling challenging terrains, including slopes and uneven ground. We use techniques like stepping or contour fencing to create a beautiful, functional fence that follows the natural contours of your property.
