Prairie Village, KS: Custom Horizontal Western Red Cedar Fence
Custom horizontal Western Red Cedar fencing in Prairie Village, KS, with shorter spans between posts, extra bracing, and a top cap. Stepped sections follow the backyard slope.

What the homeowner was up against
- The backyard grade changes along the fence line, requiring changes in panel elevation.
- The run sits beside established trees and planting beds, with the fence forming a backdrop to the landscaping.
What we specified, and why
Horizontal Western Red Cedar
Horizontal cedar boards give this project a different look from a traditional vertical-picket fence. The natural wood grain remains visible across each section.
Shorter spans and extra bracing
This custom build uses shorter spans between posts and additional bracing. Shorter spans reduce the unsupported length of the horizontal boards; the exact post spacing and bracing dimensions are not published for this project.
A capped top
A top cap finishes the upper edge of each section, giving the horizontal-board design a defined top detail.
Stepped sections on the slope
The photographs show sections changing elevation along the downhill run while the boards within each section remain horizontal.
The result
- A custom cedar fence with horizontal lines and a capped finish.
- Shorter sections with extra bracing, arranged to follow the backyard's changing elevation.
What a project like this costs
This project's invoice is not published. A similar custom fence needs a site-specific quote based on length, height, post spacing, bracing, top details, and terrain.
