Any ideas? I've googled and the answered are extremely widely varied. I don't feel like contacting someone for a quote and being bugged and pressured by a salesman just yet. Just trying to budget for down the road. I'm looking at about 300 linear feet with two single gates. What say the OT?

He said that in the original post... although he called the gates "doors" for some reason.

Wood fences are trashy. Hire some mexicans to build a wall with stones.

quote:For a 6ft cedar fence, materials alone are around $10/foot. (and that's using regular home depot cedar, not premium boards). Pine is about $2/foot less.
$10-12 a LF installed

It's one of the biggest rip offs in human history and 1 of the easiest DIY projects out there.

2 single gates, about 300 lf. standard cheap wood, I guess. However I don't want it to start warping and falling apart like the Home Depot special I installed about 10 years ago.

I just put in a little over 300' of cedar fence, metal posts, trimmed w' 2x6 on the top, my cost was just under $20/', I hired a laborer and did most of the work myself

You can do pressure treated pine, and whether you do it yourself or have a fence company - make sure you have 3 horizontal 2x4's not just 2 like some people do. That will add to your cost but fence will not warp.
