Modern Shadow Box Cedar Fence Installation in Tacoma, WA

We recently completed a custom Horizontal Shadow Box Cedar Fence installation for a new homeowner in Tacoma, WA—and the results speak for themselves. The client, Carlos, had just purchased the property and was eager to replace the rotting, unstable fence that came with the home. His goals were clear: enhance property security while significantly improving the home’s curb appeal and value.

Project Goals & Planning

From the start, our mission was to create something both functional and visually stunning. We carefully removed the old fencing, and then collaborated closely with Carlos to design a modern horizontal shadow-box layout that would suit his new home perfectly. With attention to every detail, we built a fence that combines privacy, airflow, and a clean architectural look.

Premium Materials Used

• 4” Clear Western Red Cedar Boards – for a sleek, knot-free appearance
• Kiln-Dried Cedar 2x4” Rails – for lasting structural strength
• Cedar 5/4” Top Cap – adds a refined finishing touch
• Heavy-Duty Gate Hinges & Latch – ensures durability and smooth operation

Homeowner Satisfaction

Carlos couldn't be happier with the results! The new fence not only boosts the security he was looking for but also makes his backyard and home look even more inviting. It's quickly become a favorite feature of the property, and he’s already received some lovely compliments from his neighbors.

This project is a great example of how custom craftsmanship, high-end materials, and a clear design vision can come together to deliver security, style, and value—all in under a week.
