[quote=Hobie]Outdoor fencing is typically made of redwood or cedar as that wood stands up to elements better. Are you talking about tongue and groove or shiplap when you are referring to overlapping panels? JW Redwood good source.[/quote]
That’s what you call it. Yes, tongue and groove type wood paneling. My old house used 1/4″ tongue and groove wood for the gate doors. My current house uses 1″ wood. It’s all splitting and the gate is ridiculously heavy. I don’t car if it’s redwood or cedar.since I’ll be staining it with a solid color.
