Cedar Fence Installation in Lakeway, Texas

Cap & Trim | Good Neighbor Style | Boxed Metal Posts

Project Overview

A homeowner in the Lakeway area reached out to AT4 Fence & Decks after their existing fence had deteriorated from years of Texas weather. The goal was a complete fence replacement that would deliver lasting privacy, withstand high winds, and elevate the property’s curb appeal.

AT4 designed a custom cap-and-trim cedar fence in a good-neighbor style — finished equally well on both sides — engineered with reinforced steel post systems to withstand Central Texas conditions for years to come.

Why This Design Worked

The cap & trim cedar design was selected to meet the homeowner’s dual goals of privacy and aesthetics. The good-neighbor style ensures the clean, finished side faces both the homeowner’s yard and the neighboring property — a thoughtful touch that also enhances the home’s street-facing visual appeal.

Boxed metal posts were used in place of standard wood posts for added structural integrity. Because Austin and Lakeway are known for strong seasonal wind events, additional steel posts were installed at key intervals to give the fence extra resistance without compromising the natural cedar look. The result is a fence built to last without sacrificing style.

Standout Features

Here are some of the key features we loved about this wood fence installation project:

• Cedar gate with diagonal brace construction: A matching cedar gate was built with a classic diagonal brace for structural support — preventing sagging over time while keeping the design cohesive with the fence line.
• Reinforced post system: Boxed metal posts, combined with additional steel posts, provide superior stability — specifically engineered to handle Texas’ high winds—a common point of failure in standard wood-post installations.
• Good neighbor design: Finished on both sides, this fence style is a neighborly choice that looks as polished from the outside as it does from within the yard.
• Natural cedar material: Cedar’s natural oils make it resistant to rot and insects, reducing long-term maintenance and keeping the fence looking great season after season in the Texas climate.

The Finished Result

The completed privacy fence transformed the property with a clean, structured perimeter that provides genuine privacy while withstanding the demands of Texas weather. The homeowner received a professionally built fence with reinforced posts, a matching cedar gate, and a design that adds real curb appeal and long-term value to their home.
