Imported Sugi Cedar is a lightweight, straight-grained fencing option known for its durability and pale, clean appearance. Compared to Western Red Cedar, Sugi Cedar offers a noticeably lighter tone—thanks in part to the lower iron and mineral content in the soils where it’s grown. These 1x4 pickets feature a full 3/4” thickness for added strength and are ideal for homeowners seeking a more subtle, refined aesthetic. The dog-eared top provides a traditional look, while the narrow width allows for flexible design layouts.
- Premium Import Cedar Fence Pickets are perfect for cost-conscious projects that still demand visual appeal and longevity.
- Each picket measures 1 × 4 (3/4” thickness) and 6 feet in height.
- The lighter tone and consistent surface make these pickets well-suited for modern or transitional fencing styles.
