Stop wasting weekends fighting with dripping stain, overspray disasters, and uneven coverage. Our factory pre-stained cedar dog ear pickets eliminate every headache of field staining while delivering a professional finish that's impossible to achieve with a brush or sprayer.
Six-Sided Factory Stain Protection
Unlike big box store pickets that leave you guessing about stain penetration, every Gopherwood picket receives our proprietary six-sided EXPERT stain application. This means complete protection from UV rays, moisture, and the elements - even on surfaces you can't reach after installation.
Kiln-Dried Stability Guarantee
Our cedar is kiln-dried to optimal moisture content before staining, eliminating the warping, twisting, and shrinkage that plagues field-stained lumber. Your fence stays straight, professional, and beautiful for years.
