Wind Resistance – Good Neighbor Fence

hbfencedeckingconstruction

 

The most common form of fencing is the cedar fence. Sometimes, cedar fences are not always long-lasting in windy areas.

For example, having a thin sheet of fence board, does not offer much resistance against strong winds. Sometimes we will recommend a good neighbor fence to our customers if they live in a strong windy area.

If you have property out in the country, you may want to consider a strong fence, one in which can withstand windy conditions.

A good neighbor fence simply has alternate wooden fence boards on each side of the fence.

What this means is, instead of having fence boards evenly laid on just one side of the rail, you would have alternate fence boards, which allows airflow through the fence structure.
Allowing airflow to partially go through the spacing in a good neighbor fence will allow the fence to be more wind resistant.
