What Is Picket Fencing?

Picket fencing is a classic style of fence made from evenly spaced vertical boards, called pickets, fixed to horizontal rails. It is used on residential properties, gardens, front yards, pathways and as decorative boundary fencing. It is available in wood, steel, aluminium and PVC, and can be customised in height, colour and design to suit the property.

Picket Fencing FAQs

How much does picket fencing cost in Cape Town?

Cost depends on the material, the height, the total length and the installation requirements. We quote after a site assessment.

What is the best material for a picket fence?

Wood and PVC are the most popular for residential properties. Wood gives the traditional look, PVC needs the least maintenance.

Is picket fencing good for security?

Picket fencing provides boundary security while keeping visibility and aesthetic appeal. If high security is the priority, palisade or Clearview fencing is the better choice.

How long does picket fencing last?

PVC and metal pickets last many years with minimal maintenance. The lifespan of a wooden fence depends on the treatment and how well it is maintained.

Can picket fences be painted?

Yes. Wooden pickets can be painted or stained in the colour you want, and repainted later to freshen them up.
