Redwood Kicked Up a NotchSometimes a dogear fence needs to be kicked up a notch. Not too much, just a little.
Take this redwood, dogear fence Tahoe’s crews built in Gardnerville (Douglas County.) It has a 2×12 bottom kicker board. Typically, kicker boards are used to raise the height of a fence. Or when the fence also acts as a retaining wall.
When fence boards sit on top of a kicker, the structure gets additional support to resist sagging. This can be beneficial in snow laden areas such as around Lake Tahoe.
