Horizontal Wood Slat Fence When Building A Wood Privacy Fence Do You Use 2x4 Or 1x4 For The Horizontal Peices That Your Slats Nail To?

When building a wood privacy fence do you use 2x4 or 1x4 for the horizontal peices that your slats nail to? - horizontal wood slat fence

I build my own fence, and I'm not sure what size board would be better. I have also come together 2 or 3?

2x4 for horizontal use. Use 2 to the power of the fence 3 1 / 2 inch, 3 for a fence 6 'tall.

4x4 or 4x6 for the vertical posts
2x4 for the horizontal position
decorative ribbons and vertical pieces finished
I think we have 1x4 for the last time ...

I recommend using the 2x4 and under the assumption that the total height of the fence will be less than 6 m 2 plates in order.

2x4 on 2 plates are safe and sound.
