Anatomy of a Fence

Anatomy of a fence.

Ever wonder what the terminology means on your fence quote?

Well now you don't have to wonder! Here are a few terms that you should know:

  • RWCC (CCRW): Redwood Con-Common. This is a type of Redwood. Con-Common Redwood is a combination of heartwood and sapwood. If chosen, the fence boards would be multi-colored.
  • RWCH (CHRW): Redwood Con-Heart. This is a type of Redwood that is a single color tone; a reddish pink. The wood comes from the center of the Redwood tree, hence having heart in its name. 
  • PTDF: Pressure Treated Douglas Fir. This type of wood is treated with chemicals to protect it from rotting, termites, water damage, and fungus. If soil touches the wood, it should be pressure treated for greater longevity.
  • Lattice: This is the decorative topper that is installed on top of a fence. At times, lattice can be used of other decorative purposes but it is more commonly used on top of a fence.
