Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the Canyon Winds considered a "strong cedar fence"?
The Canyon Winds uses massive 6×6 posts and 2×6 rails, making it significantly stronger than standard cedar fences that typically use 4×4 posts and 2×4 rails. This robust construction allows it to withstand Utah’s canyon winds and harsh weather conditions.
What makes this a true "privacy cedar fence"?
The overlapping picket design eliminates gaps between boards, providing complete visual privacy. Unlike standard fences with spacing between pickets, the Canyon Winds blocks all sight lines while still allowing air circulation.
Do I really need the mid-rail option?
We strongly recommend the mid-rail for maximum fence longevity. The additional support significantly reduces warping and provides extra strength against impact damage, extending your fence’s lifespan.
How often does my cedar fence need maintenance?
Annual maintenance is recommended to preserve your fence’s appearance and extend its life. This involves applying a quality stain with UV and water protection to maintain the cedar’s natural beauty and integrity.
What's the advantage of the "good neighbor" design?
The Canyon Winds looks identical on both sides, eliminating disputes about which side faces your neighbor. The fascia rails on the front mirror the structural rails on the back, creating a uniform, professional appearance from every angle.
How long will my Canyon Winds fence last?
With proper annual maintenance, a Canyon Winds cedar fence can last 20-30 years or more. The premium construction and quality cedar materials ensure maximum durability when properly cared for.
