Wooden Horse Fencing

Wood is the most common material used to construct a corral fence. Pressure treated wood is the most popular wood product used due to its ability to resist rot in moist or wet areas. When we are asked to build a corral fence most of the time it is a four rail uncapped corral board (Corral Boards are rough in finish, pressure treated and are 3/4" x 5 1/2" x 16' in actual dimension) fence boards are attached to 4"x4" treated post that can be either square or round. We use 3" ring shank hot dipped galvanized nails approved for use with treated wood. We set each post in concrete no less than 24" deep. We set the post between 7'6" to 8'0" on center depending on on-site conditions.
