Privacy Fence Ideas That Work in Southlake Neighborhoods

Privacy fences are great for keeping your nosey neighbors out, as well as creating comfortable, stylish spaces that fit within your neighborhood’s aesthetic.

At Stand Strong Fencing of Southlake, we help homeowners choose privacy fence designs that deliver seclusion, style, and HOA compliance. Here are some top ideas to consider.

1. Horizontal Wood Fencing

Modern and eye-catching, horizontal fencing offers:

• Clean lines and contemporary flair
• Visual elongation of yard space
• Perfect pairing with modern architecture

We use treated pine or cedar, sealed for Southlake’s heat and sun.

2. Board-on-Board Privacy Fencing

This traditional style overlaps pickets for full coverage with no gaps. Benefits include:

• Superior privacy, even with wood shrinkage
• Enhanced sound dampening
• Great for backyards or pool areas

3. Vinyl Privacy Fencing

If you’re looking for low maintenance, vinyl is ideal:

• Won’t rot, fade, or require painting
• Available in multiple colors and textures
• HOA-friendly in many Southlake communities

4. Shadowbox Fencing

This “good neighbor” style offers privacy with alternating pickets on both sides - so it looks the same from both your yard and your neighbor’s.

• Allows some airflow
• Reduces wind resistance
• Works well in high-traffic side yards

5. Decorative Add-Ons

Customize your privacy fence with:

• Lattice tops for light and style
• Trim caps for a finished look
• Accent panels (like stone or iron insets)

Privacy Fence Height and HOA Rules in Southlake

Most privacy fences:

• Max out at 6–8 feet
• Require HOA approval for style and material
• May have setback requirements near sidewalks or drainage zones

We help Southlake homeowners submit fence plans and navigate HOA review.

Want Privacy Without Compromise?

A well-designed fence should protect your space without making it feel closed in. We design fences that provide beauty and function in equal measure; whether you’re entertaining, swimming, or just relaxing outdoors.
