What a Vinyl Picket Fence Is

A vinyl picket fence is a row of upright pickets fixed to horizontal rails, with a gap between one picket and the next.

The gaps are the point of the style. You can see the house and the garden through the fence, and the fence still draws a clear line along the edge of the property. That is why picket fencing belongs in front of a house, where a closed fence would hide the front door.

PrimeAlux supplies vinyl picket fencing as posts, picket sections and gates. Your contractor or installer sets the posts and hangs the sections.

Where Vinyl Picket Fencing Suits

Vinyl picket fencing suits places where you want an edge, not a screen.

Front yards

Along the sidewalk and up the driveway, pickets frame the lawn and leave the house in view.

Garden beds

A short picket run separates a vegetable or flower garden from the rest of the yard.

Corner lots

An open fence lets drivers and pedestrians see around the corner. Many municipalities have rules for fences near an intersection.

Picket Fence Colours

Vinyl picket fencing is supplied in white, brown and grey woodgrain.

White is the colour most people picture when they think of a picket fence, and it pairs with almost any house colour. Brown and grey woodgrain give the same open pattern a quieter look, closer to the tone of a wood fence.

Planning a Front-Yard Picket Fence

Check your front-yard fence rules before anything else, because front yards have the lowest height limits.

Municipal fence bylaws usually set one limit for a front yard and a higher one for a back yard. A picket fence is a low fence by nature, so it often fits the front-yard limit, and the bylaw for your address gives the exact figure.

Measure the frontage from one side lot line to the other, then each return along the sides. Mark the front walk and the driveway, since each one is an opening. Decide whether the walk gets a gate or stays open.
