Over the years our Forest Hill style has become one of the most popular privacy fence designs across Ottawa and Gatineau. With good reason.
A Clean Look—On Both Sides
You know how some fences look great from one side but like a construction site from the other? The Forest Hill looks similar on both sides, a great feature if you’re trying to keep things friendly on the property line!

The Forest Hill looks similar on both sides of the fence, making it a great choice for boundaries between neighbours.
Built to Suit Your Privacy Needs
Whether you’re looking to mark a garden boundary or block out prying eyes, the Forest Hill fence can be built at any height from 3 feet up to 7 feet. So whether it’s a short divider or a full-on privacy screen, you’ve got options.
Classic Materials
You can choose from cedar, Douglas fir, or pressure-treated wood—all great picks depending on your style and budget. Cedar has that natural beauty (and scent!) people love, while pressure-treated lumber offers affordability and durability. Douglas fir sits nicely in between with good strength and a clean finish.
Design Details
Structurally, the Forest Hill is solid. Each side has top and bottom rails—2x4s on the back and 1x4s on the front—plus a 1×4 top cap for a crisp, finished look. It’s not just about looks, though. These details help keep the boards secure and the fence stable over time.

Bottom line?
The Forest Hill is one of those “can’t-go-wrong” fences. It’s stylish, sturdy, and fair to folks on both sides of the fence. If you’re after privacy without sacrificing curb appeal, this might just be the perfect fit.
