A well-built wooden fence is much more than just a boundary. It enhances curb appeal, provides privacy, and creates a sense of comfort around your home. In Los Angeles — where aesthetics meet functionality — the right fence can completely transform an outdoor space.
Recently, our team at ProHands Handyman completed a custom Redwood fence installation in Glendale, and this project perfectly showcases how a simple upgrade can add both character and durability to a home’s exterior.

Project Overview
Our client wanted a fence that would combine modern design, lasting strength, and natural beauty, creating a seamless transition between the house and the garage while keeping the patio private but still open to light and air.
Project details:
• Location: Glendale, California
• Material: Premium Redwood, naturally weather-resistant and durable
• Design: Vertical slat pattern for a sleek, modern look
• Structure: Solid wooden frame with precise alignment
• Gate: Custom-built Redwood gate matching the fence design, with heavy-duty hinges and latch
• Finishing: Decorative bottom trim and tight fitting against the concrete base for a clean, professional finish

Why We Chose Redwood
Redwood is one of the most sought-after woods for exterior construction in Southern California — and for good reason. It combines:
• Natural resistance to decay and moisture,
• Beautiful grain and warm tone,
• Stability under direct sun exposure,
• Minimal maintenance needs,
• and eco-friendly durability without chemical treatment.
Its deep, rich color gives fences a high-end architectural look that lasts for years with proper care.

Modern Architectural Aesthetic
This fence was designed in a contemporary vertical slat style. Each slat was carefully spaced to create balance, rhythm, and light play. The result is a fence that feels open yet private.
Benefits of this design:
• Allows natural airflow while maintaining privacy
• Enhances modern architecture — especially flat-roof or minimalist homes
• Visually extends the height of the space, making small yards appear larger
• Adds depth through alternating wood tones
Special attention was given to every joint and alignment — the fence meets both the wall and garage flush, creating a visually seamless connection.

Step-by-Step Installation
1. Site preparation: clearing the area, leveling, and marking post locations.
2. Post installation: securing vertical posts with precise alignment.
3. Frame assembly: adding horizontal rails to form the fence structure.
4. Slat installation: attaching vertical Redwood boards evenly for a clean modern look.
5. Gate fabrication: matching style, reinforced frame, smooth swing alignment.
6. Finishing touches: installing the top trim, inspecting every line, and cleaning the site thoroughly.

Advantages of Vertical Redwood Fences
• Elegant and timeless design that complements any home style.
• Improved ventilation compared to solid panel fences.
• Easy maintenance: can be cleaned and refinished without full disassembly.
• Natural durability even in humid or sunny climates.
• Increased property value through enhanced curb appeal.

Maintenance Tips from ProHands Handyman
To keep your Redwood fence looking fresh and protected:
1. Apply a UV-resistant wood oil or stain every 2–3 years.
2. Clean dust and debris regularly, especially near the base.
3. Inspect hinges and hardware periodically and lubricate if needed.
4. Avoid direct sprinkler contact to prevent water spots or discoloration.
With minimal care, a Redwood fence can retain its color and strength for over a decade.
