Q: What is the main difference between three board and three rail horse fences?

A: Both terms often refer to the same design: a horizontal fence with three wooden rails/boards. "Board" typically implies flat-cut lumber, while "rail" may describe rounded or rough-cut wood, but usage varies regionally.

Q: How much does a 4 board horse fence cost compared to a three board version?

A: A 4-board fence typically costs 25-35% more due to extra materials and labor. Average costs range $12-$18 per linear foot for 4-board vs $9-$14 for 3-board, depending on wood type and terrain.

Q: What wood types work best for three board horse fencing?

A: Treated pine is most common for affordability and durability. Premium options include cedar (natural rot resistance) or oak (longevity), but these increase costs by 40-60%.

Q: Can three board fences safely contain all horse breeds?

A: Yes, when properly constructed at 54-60" height with 8-10' post spacing. Larger breeds may require closer rail spacing or added visibility features like white boards for better depth perception.

Q: How often should three board horse fences be maintained?

A: Inspect annually, replacing rotten boards and tightening fasteners. Expect to re-stain/paint every 3-5 years. Proper pressure-treated wood should last 15-20 years with maintenance.
