Common questions about the Scalloped Picket w/ Spade caps

What is the difference between spade caps and dog-ear caps?

Spade caps finish each picket with a pointed, ornamental profile; dog-ear caps clip the corners for a softer, squared-off look. Same fence underneath — it is a styling choice.

How much privacy does this panel give?

Very little, by design. It is an open picket style meant to define the yard and contain kids and pets while keeping the view. For screening, look at our semi-privacy and privacy panels.

How long until it ships?

Made to order, with a typical lead time of 4 to 6 weeks before shipping. Add transit time when planning.

Why is the install rated moderate?

The scalloped profile needs even post spacing so the dips line up across the run. Get the layout right and the rest is standard post-and-panel work — or have our Wilmington, NC crews do it.

Does vinyl fencing fade?

The material is UV-stabilized with color running all the way through, so there is no coating to fail and no repainting cycle. Occasional washing keeps it bright.
