SPLIT RAIL FENCE

SPLIT RAIL FENCEarmor fence2023-05-17T18:30:31+00:00

Split rail fence installation is made with anywhere from three to five horizontal flat boards—typically measuring 1″x6″x8′ or 1″x4″x8’—that get attached to posts. When we build a Split rail fence, regardless of the type of wood used to create the rails, we always work with pressure treated posts, so your fence posts will last a long time and won’t require constant maintenance.

Split rail fence installation comes in 36”, 48” or 60” tall. It can be 2 board, 3 board or 4 board. It can also be built in custom 5 or 6 board in different heights. Split rail fences can be built from several types of lumber and we are happy to work with you to find the perfect fit!

Many people ask about Estate Fencing. Estate fencing is similar to a Split rail fence, except some of the boards that go between the posts are overlapped to form a diagonal crisscross design. Estate fencing typically uses between 4″ and 6″ flat boards, depending upon how many horizontal boards you want to use above or below the crisscross pattern. Estate fencing comes in 4 board, 5 board, or 6 board in different combinations and is normally 48” tall.

Simply the best! Dean was incredible to work with in finalizing our vision and Hugo was an expert in his field in both craftsmanship and professionalism. I was blown away by the quality and efficiency of this team. I’m grateful for their dedication and hard work and would absolutely recommend them to anyone who wants quality results. 100% recommend!

★★★★★

We used Armor to install fence, deck and patio. They did a wonderful and professional job. Daryl who came to meet me the first time always stayed in touch and delivered on all his promises. The staff in the office is great to deal with. Jamie and Heather are rock stars. I am recommending you to our neighbors as well. Thank you.

★★★★★

Recently worked with Armor Fence to get a new vinyl privacy fence for my home to replace an existing chain link fence. Overall great experience! They reached out quickly to get a free estimate scheduled. Shane came by on the morning scheduled to discuss and he answered all my questions and had an estimate for me the same day. He was very thorough and very helpful through the process. The quote came out to a very reasonable total. The install date was scheduled for the following week. The workers arrived promptly that morning and finished up that day. The new fence makes a huge difference to our yard and we are very happy. Thank you Shane and team!

★★★★★

Great Experience, fence was matched perfectly to the existing fences surrounding our home. Highly recommend Armor Fence.

Wonderful experience all the way around. Merv, our sales rep was extremely professional, considerate, punctual and cocerned with accuracy. He even came back to remeasure when I decided I wanted to add a gate. He answered all of my questions and had some of his own to ensure I was getting what I wanted. The men that did the install were professional, kept to themselves, stayed focused throughout the 2 day installation. Goff the GM was in contact frequently and answered all questions within an hour of emailing. He wanted to ensure we were satisfied with the install. Overall I was extremely impressed and if I have any other needs in the future I will be reaching out to this company. The fence looks fantastic, the price was the best out of 4 estimates I received and the professionalism all around was outstanding.

Purchased a fence in Locust Grove. Armor did what they said they would do when they said they would do it. After sales service were excellent

★★★★☆

I am very pleased with the amazing job Armor Fence did in building a spectacular deck and three-season room, creating a fantastic new living space for our home. Their craftsmanship is evident in every detail, and we couldn’t be happier with the end result.Although we did face some initial challenges with the EZBreeze windows (the only reason we didn't give them 4 stars on this update), which didn’t function properly at first, Armor Fence worked with the window company over an extended period to find a solution. It wasn't a quick fix, but they remained persistent, and ultimately, the issues were resolved. We appreciate the effort they put into ensuring everything was made right.Their team was pleasant and great to work with from the people who set up the appointments and set everything up to the guy that came out and worked with us to design exactly what we wanted to the team that was here constructing it! Additionally, their pricing was extremely reasonable, which made the entire experience even better.Overall, the deck and three-season room have completely transformed our home, and we are very pleased with the final results. Despite the hiccups, Armor Fence demonstrated a strong commitment to making sure the job was done well. If you're looking for a company that stands by their work and cares about delivering a high-quality product, Armor Fence is a great choice!

★★★★★

Consultant was patient, knowledgeable, and very friendly. Workers were incredibly professional, skilled, fast as hell, and true experts of their craft.

★★★★★

Armor Fence was amazing! After acquiring all the paperwork & scheduling the install, our fence was completed in under 2hrs! Fast & thorough crew & overall great team!

★★★★★

Working with any type of contractor can be a challenging/stressful task but these guys are truly easy to work with! They communicated very well and were transparent. The pricing was very reasonable as well. Daryl and Dean really helped me out on this project and I would highly recommend them. Thank you guys so very much.

★★★★★

Replacing our old fence with a new, higher one was a seamless process. From our initial call, to our meeting with our project manager, Greg, to the installation, everything went smoothly and quickly. In the end we ended up with exactly what we needed and our neighbors love the look of it!

Response from the ownerHi, Helen. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!

★★★★★

Fantastic customer service, high quality materials, and wonderful craftsmanship. Would highly recommend Armor Fence.

Response from the ownerHi, David. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

★★★★★

After obtaining quotes from four deck builders, I selected Armor! I was close to not selecting them; however after reading between the lines, Armor uses professional build techniques as standard! They use RotBlok and joint tape as standard versus other builders charging extra for them. Armor was much cheaper than the competition while maintaining build quality and using Trex products. They are certified Trex Pro which extends your Trex product warranty. Workers were there everyday until completion. Customer service is also top notch. I never had issues with communication or questions. Even the CEO of the company is involved in day to day communication and part of the customer service experience. Well Done Armor!

Response from the ownerHi, Jon. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!

★★★★★

This was such an easy process. From the phone call to set up estimate, to the accepting of the estimate, to the building of the fence. Great crew for the building! And Wynn was wonderful to work with. I am so happy with my new fence and so are our puppies!! I recommend Armor Fence for your fencing needs!

Response from the ownerThanks for the great review! May you enjoy your fence for many, many years!

★★★★★

Armor Fence was absolutely awesome. My rep "Wynn" explained everything in detail, responded promptly and was all around great to work with. The workmanship was 100% spot on and completed super fast. Thank you Armor fence and look forward to our next project with you!.Bryan P.

★★★★★

Super fast at getting me my price. Armor's process was very smooth. From the sales, to production, and the execution were top notch. They made sure they had all the materials for what I added at the last minute. Super knowledgeable staff. Wilder the forman is super nice and goes the extra mile to make you happy. I loved choosing Armor. Highly recommend! Great prices! Friendly people with great helpful attitudes. Yes please!

★★★★★

I recently had Armor Fence build a fence for my property, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, the team especially Seymour was professional, efficient, and attentive to detail. They took the time to understand my preferences, offering expert advice on materials and design. The entire process was smooth, from the initial consultation with Seymour to the final installation. The quality of the workmanship is great, and they left no mess behind. I highly recommend Armor Fence to anyone in need of a reliable and skilled fence-building service.

★★★★★

Beyond thrilled!!! Seymore was amazing from the moment he arrived for the initial estimate. He was patient and kind with my million questions, he made sure we understood the entire process every step of the way.The gentlemen that installed the fence were professional and AMAZING. They have installing down to an art!We went from the eyesore of the neighborhood to the envy of the neighborhood!!!

I used Armor 19 years ago with my first fence and when it needed updating i reached out to Armor and worked with Kevin to get a replacement fence that not only fit my needs but my budget. A very pleasant experience and I would strongly recommend you give them the chance to work with you.

Response from the ownerHi, Michael. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!

★★★★★

We recently had our back fence replaced by Armor Fence, and the process was a breeze! Kevin took great care of us. He came out punctually and provided a quick and reasonable estimate. Shortly after the estimate, they put up a beautiful back fence in a matter of hours, and we are very happy with the results! Couldn’t recommend Kevin Beavers and Armor Fence enough!!

Response from the ownerHi, Anna. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!

★★★★★

Great price, even better service! We couldn't be happier with our new fence. Kevin and team were awesome!

Response from the ownerHi, Spencer. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!

★★★★★

Beautiful fence installed quickly and exactly as planned. Seymour, our sales consultant, accommodated last minute changes and there was no change in the date of installation. Seymour followed up multiple times to ensure that we were satisfied and the work was performed according to specifications. We are very happy and would come to Armor Fence without hesitation for future work.

Response from the ownerHi, Lisa. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

May 2,2024 update: Today I received a thank you card from armor fence with a nice gift card inside. They apologized for the payment hassle, thank you very much Armor Fence Co , and I’m recalling my new fence!Five stars for the fence itself, you can see the pictures and my original original post below.everything else has been absolutely dreadful and time-consuming and annoying and straight up disorganized and unprofessional.Long story short I bought a house asked my realtor to recommend a fence guy and I went with armor. The invoicing logistics and other office support is completely nonexistent. No portal or invoice is emailed to you. Even though this is how I have paid my movers, and my surveyor and my home, inspector, etc. The only piece of paper that I’ve ever gotten from our was a carbon copy of an initial estimate that the project manager put together for me. That’s it. So I go on their website to pay my deposit, well their processor sucks. I paid a deposit of 2400, and it kept declining from their site, even though I confirmed with my bank that it wasn’t on our end. Then it proceeded to charge my card six more times in the amount of $2400. So that was another city. Eventually five of those charges came out. The work was completed and a few days later I went to make another payment. Well, once again, the portal wasn’t working and it charged me another $4800 as pending and then those charges dropped off. A couple days later when I was having trouble, I called the office and talked to Cheyenne and explained what was going on and she said that she would have someone for accounting contact me. They never did. Went by and I have the project manager calling me wondering where the payment is. Well then I tell him what he says can you call the HR lady and I was like no but she can call me. I don’t know why it would be on me to help them do their invoicing and figure out what’s going on with their credit card processing….So then she sends me another link, she says oh it’s very strange. This is never happened, which I really highly doubt. So of course, then I try to make another payment and that doesn’t work. While I’m on the phone with her, I ask her for a warranty put in writing. She said oh Dean already talk to you about that. I’m not actually sure that conversation ever happened, but I asked her repeatedly for a warranty in writing and she completely disregarded and didn’t follow up with me. How professional!Then she says well why don’t you give me your credit card number over the phone and I was like well that’s not happening since you guys have already proven that you keep overcharging people peoples credit cards. Then Dean calls back, and then Dean says oh why don’t you give your credit card to me and I’ll have my assistant run it through and I’m like that’s definitely not happening.Then he says will mail a check, well. The thing is is that I moved the entire money from my savings onto my credit card to head off problems like these that might occur with contractors. That way I have some protection with my credit card company so no I am not mailing you a check, then I took more time out of my day even though I’m moving in three days, and I’m working all day to call Citibank who again said that it is their processing company at Armor Fence Co then Dean calls back a final time and says oh well you don’t have to put your security code in the portal. Except that the link that the HR person sent me ask for a security code or you can’t go any further.Guys, get it together! You need to get an invoicing system. You need to get a strong portal and you need to be following up with your clients.Let me know when your portal is fixed so that I can make this payment, I don’t have any more time to spend on this.ORIGINAL:I absolutely love my new fence! I had been searching for someone to install it and was recommended to armor fence and Dean from my realtor. Dean and his team did such an amazing job, the work was fast, clean, on time, and as promised!the price was also super competitive .

Response from the ownerHi, Jennifer. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!

★★★★★

Love the new 4-rail paddock fence that Daryl Crowe and the Armor Fence team installed yesterday! Excellent work by the installation team that showed up on time and worked very efficiently to deliver a great result by the end of the day. The crew was courteous and thoroughly cleaned up the construction site before they left in the evening. I highly recommend Armor Fence and will certainly utilize them again in the future!

Response from the ownerHi, Mike. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!

★★★★★

We had a 630 square foot trex deck installed in 2021 by Armor Fence. Their price was substantially lower than multiple other estimates (even when lumber prices were elevated), the crew was great, and the work was completed in a timely manner. The deck has been excellent and served exactly as expected. We'll most likely hire them for our next property

Response from the ownerThank you so much for your kind words, Dillon. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us.Cheers,Armor Fence, Deck & Patio - Nova

Daryl was an honest, easy man to work with and the installation crew made short work of our fence replacement project, completing it in less than a day. They were extremely thorough, even perfectionist, and we couldn’t be more pleased.

Title: Exceptional Service and EfficiencyI recently had the pleasure of working with Armor Fence for a project. The team of three workers who were assigned to us did an outstanding job. They arrived earlier than expected, which was a pleasant surprise.Their efficiency was truly commendable. They worked very fast, yet their attention to detail and the quality of their work was not compromised. It's evident that they are skilled professionals who take pride in their work.I am extremely satisfied with the results and the overall experience. I would highly recommend Armor Fence to anyone in need of their services. Looking forward to our next project together.

Response from the ownerHi, Stacy. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!

★★★★★

We bought a full yard privacy fence with paddock accents on the sides. Armour Fence has been excellent to deal with. From the first meeting with Kevin Beavers (who never once complained about all the changes) to every crew member who has been to our property AND the office staff- I cannot say enough wonderful things about this team! Even a recent repair from a fallen tree was handled as if we bought a whole new fence! Very professional, courteous, friendly, and skilled! Not to mention they have the most competitive pricing in town. I will always come back and gladly refer friends!

Response from the ownerThank you so much for your kind words, Karen. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us.Cheers,Armor Fence, Deck & Patio - Nova

What a fabulous job Armored Fence completed. Very professional, experienced and fast. The wood fence has steel posts and already stained with a 10yr warranty. The fence is gorgeous and worth every penny! Thanks Mike and company!!

Response from the ownerHi, Renee. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!

★★★★☆

Quick and professional response to request for estimate. Made useful suggestions and was decent price, about 15% lower than their biggest competitor. Job was done very quickly and looks great. Very happy with the sales man and the crew, as well as their office staff. Nice.The only reason I can't give 5 stars is that one of the fence posts wobbled for weeks because I suspect they skipped it when adding concrete. Also the fence corners on one side of the yard were out of square and one side of our pergola does not line up with the other side, so putting pavers under it will be tricky to avoid looking funny. Some heavy old posts were left behind shrubs after cleanup and had to be cut up for trash pick up.

Response from the ownerHi, Henry. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
