Key Considerations When Designing a Board on Board Fence
Board on board fences take more boards than a standard privacy fence because each board overlaps the next, so your board count drives the material cost. ArcSite lets you adjust board width and overlap on this drawing and recount boards before you price the job.

FAQ
On a board on board fence, the boards overlap so you can't see through at any angle. On a shadow box fence, boards alternate sides of the rail with a gap between them, so some light and air pass through.
Yes! You can swap the 6" boards for another width in ArcSite and respace them across the panel.
That's one of the best uses for ArcSite. Draw both options on one project and walk the homeowner through each before they commit.
