Also if doing this yourself i recommend spending the extra time and $$ to screw the boards to the runners and not nail. I used 1-5/8" torx head deck screws putting two on each runner. Not one board lost for Gustave.

I built 400 linear feet of privacy fence. Screws are the way to go. Takes longer but holds 10× better
