Privacy & Curb Appeal
Cedar Wood Privacy Fence Installation in OKC
Wood privacy fencing is the best mix of durability, beauty, and value in the OKC metro. Metro Fence builds western red cedar privacy fences custom on site on galvanized metal posts set in concrete, with screwed two-by-four runners in western red cedar or Douglas fir, hot-dipped galvanized ring-shank nails for the pickets, and a one-year installation warranty on every fence installed.
Overview
Wood Privacy Fence Done Right
A cedar privacy fence is the workhorse of Oklahoma yards: it blocks sightlines, softens wind and noise, keeps kids and dogs in, and looks better every year as the wood weathers. Because we build on site instead of hanging pre-made panels, your fence follows the real contour of your lot and stays straight and tight.
We build with thick cedar pickets on Douglas fir runners or western red cedar runners, screwed to the posts, set every post in concrete, and fasten pickets with hot-dipped galvanized ring-shank nails so the fence stays tight for years. For added strength on all runs, we use square or round metal galvanized posts wet set in concrete to proper depth to keep your fence up in Oklahoma winds.

Why It Works
The Benefits of Wood Privacy Fence
Custom Built On Site
No prefabricated panels. We build board by board on your property so runs stay straight over slopes and dips, and gates line up perfectly.
Galvanized Metal Posts, Always
Every wood fence we build stands on galvanized metal posts, round or square, set in concrete. They do not rot at the ground line the way wood posts do, and they hold when Oklahoma wind picks up.
Cedar That Lasts
Western Red and Japanese cedar resist rot and insects and handle Oklahoma heat and cold, which is why cedar is the longest-lasting wood fence choice in the metro.

How We Build It
Quality That Lasts
We build with thick cedar pickets on Douglas fir runners or western red cedar runners, screwed to the posts, set every post in concrete, and fasten pickets with hot-dipped galvanized ring-shank nails so the fence stays tight for years. For added strength on all runs, we use square or round metal galvanized posts wet set in concrete to proper depth to keep your fence up in Oklahoma winds.
Cap and trim is our most popular upgrade: a finished top cap and trim board that hides the picket ends, frames the fence, and gives a clean, custom look from both sides. Every wood privacy fence we install carries a one-year workmanship warranty.

Wood Privacy Fence FAQs
Cedar. It naturally resists rot and insects and handles Oklahoma’s swings from summer heat to winter cold, which makes it the most popular and longest-lasting wood privacy fence in the OKC metro.
Galvanized metal posts, round or square, on every wood fence we install. We do not use wood posts. A wood post is buried in damp ground and rots at the ground line, which is where most wood fences fail first, so we take that failure point out of the fence entirely.
We typically place posts to the proper depth wet set in concrete (mixed on site with water and poured into post holes). Proper post depth and concrete setting are what keep a privacy fence standing through Oklahoma’s high winds.
A well-built cedar privacy fence lasts many years here when the posts are set deep in concrete and the wood is sealed periodically. Cedar naturally resists rot and insects, and setting panels on galvanized steel posts extends the life further on exposed, windy lots.
Board-on-board overlaps the pickets for full, gap-free privacy and a dimensional look, while cap-and-trim frames the top and bottom for a finished, upscale appearance. Many OKC homeowners combine both, and we walk you through the styles on a free on-site estimate.
