Doweled Post & Rail Fence is one of the most traditional ranch fencing styles in North America. It uses round wood posts with round rails inserted through drilled openings.
This fence can be stained in many shades of brown to complement a ranch color scheme. Designs may vary slightly by region and supplier.
Rails are constructed from round wood poles inserted directly into the posts. This center-mount design provides a clean look from both sides of the fence.
Choose 8′ rails for less sag or 10′ rails for a more economical fence. Because wood is a natural product, some sagging and warping should be expected.
Doweled post-and-rail fencing uses round wood posts pressure treated for ground contact and long-term durability.
Posts are drilled to accept the rails and may feature dome-style tops for improved water shedding. Post diameters, tops, and wood species may vary by supplier.
Common configurations include 2-rail, 3-rail, and 4-rail systems. Fence height, post diameter, rail spacing, and wood species may vary by supplier and region.
The fence can be stained, fitted with wire mesh, and paired with wooden, steel tube, or mesh gates.
Doweled Post & Rail Fence is well suited for properties that value traditional aesthetics and natural materials.
