Double Faced Wood Fencing: Premium Appearance on Both Sides

Standard single faced wood fencing presents a clean finished face in one direction and exposes the fence rails and posts on the other side. Double faced fencing eliminates this asymmetry by installing boards on both sides of the rail, concealing the structural framework from both neighbors. The result is a fence that looks intentional, polished, and complete from every vantage point.

Double faced fencing is the right choice for fence lines where both sides are used, viewed, or inhabited — driveways, side yards between two active properties, commercial-facing fences, and shared property lines where you want to give your neighbor the same quality fence face you enjoy.

When to choose double faced

Applications for Double Faced Fencing

Double faced fencing is the right choice in specific situations where the appearance of both sides matters.

Driveway Fencing

Driveways bordered by fencing are visible from both sides. Double faced cedar gives a finished appearance to both the driveway view and the yard-side view — eliminating the exposed rail problem.

Shared Property Lines

When a fence runs between two actively used yards, both neighbors deserve an attractive fence. Double faced fencing ensures both sides are finished — often a condition of neighbor cost-sharing agreements.

Street-Facing Boundaries

Fences visible from the street benefit from double faced construction so both the street view and the homeowner’s interior view are clean and finished. Required by some HOA communities.

HOA Requirements

Some Houston HOA communities require double faced or good neighbor construction for fences bordering common areas, streets, or neighboring properties. Griffin Fence confirms these requirements before installation.

Construction detail

How Double Faced Fencing Is Built

Double faced cedar fencing uses the same post and rail structure as standard wood fencing. The difference is in the boards: rather than being installed on one side of the rails, boards are attached to both sides. The boards on opposite sides are typically offset slightly — similar to good-neighbor construction — to allow the fence to flex slightly without boards pulling against each other.

Because double faced fencing uses significantly more board material than single faced, it is priced higher. Griffin Fence provides clear, itemized estimates so you can compare construction options for your specific fence project.

FAQs

Double Faced Wood Fence Houston FAQs

What is a double faced wood fence?

A double faced wood fence has cedar boards installed on both sides of the fence rails. This conceals the structural rails and posts from both sides of the fence, presenting a finished cedar board face in every direction. Double faced fencing is more material-intensive than single faced but provides a premium appearance when viewed from either side.

When should I choose double faced over single faced fencing?

Choose double faced fencing when both sides of the fence are visible to residents or guests — such as fences visible from your own yard and your neighbor’s, fences along driveways or walkways, or any fence application where the structural backside would be prominently visible and aesthetically undesirable.

Is double faced fencing more expensive?

Yes. Double faced fencing requires approximately twice the board material of single faced construction, which increases material cost. Labor is also somewhat higher due to the additional installation steps. Griffin Fence provides transparent estimates so you can compare single and double faced options for your specific project.
