- Will this gate match my existing fence?
- It is built to match our Classic Alternating Picket panels exactly. If your fence came from somewhere else, send us a photo and a few measurements and we will tell you honestly how close the match will be.
- How long does it take to get?
- It is made to order, and typical lead time is 4 to 6 weeks. Order the gate and panels together so everything comes out of the same production run.
- Does a picket gate give any privacy?
- No — picket styles are open by design, trading privacy for light, airflow, and visibility. If you need screening, look at the closed picket or privacy styles in our vinyl fence line.
- What kind of gate post does it need?
- A 4x4 vinyl gate post, and we strongly recommend an aluminum post insert inside it. Hinge loads work on a post constantly, and reinforced posts are the difference between a gate that swings true for years and one that sags.
- What maintenance does vinyl need?
- Rinse it with a hose when it gets dirty. The color runs through the material, so there is nothing to repaint, restain, or reseal — that is the whole point of vinyl.
