- Z77 or Z78 — how do I choose between them?
- Z77 is solid tongue-and-groove: full privacy, full wind block. Z78 spaces the boards: partial screening with light and airflow. Pick based on whether the fenced space needs breeze or needs a wall.
- How long is the lead time?
- Made to order, typically 4 to 6 weeks before shipping. Plan around that window plus transit time.
- Is it DIY-friendly?
- Yes — it carries an easy install rating. Just respect the horizontal lines: keep post heights level and consistent or every course will advertise the error. Our Wilmington, NC crews are available if you want it done professionally.
- Does the vinyl need painting or staining?
- Never. The color runs through the UV-stabilized material, so maintenance is a hose-down when it gets dirty — no peeling, no repainting.
- Can I get a matching gate?
- Yes — the G78 horizontal semi-privacy gate is built in this style and quoted to your opening, so the board lines and color continue through the entry.
