Ranch-style fences for Dallas homes and estate lots
- 2, 3, or 4 rails: two stays low for a front yard, three is the classic ranch look, and four fills in more of the face.
- Crossbuck (X) with a top cap: the dressier look for estate entrances and drive frontage.
- Rail plus welded-wire mesh for dogs: mesh on the yard side of the rails, plus a kickboard to close the gap underneath.
- Cedar or pine: cedar for rails you see every day; pine costs less and suits long utility runs. Fence staining slows graying on either.
