Vinyl Scalloped Picket Fence Panel, 3.5ft height 6ft width, Clay

Old fence came out on a Tuesday and the new one was in by Wednesday afternoon. They pulled the concrete from the old posts instead of setting next to it.

Small thing that a lot of crews skip. Clay at 4 ft, and it lines up straight down 80 feet with no wobble in the top line. I checked it with a string.

The wave along the top is subtle in person, more subtle than the photos made it look. Maybe a couple inches of dip between the posts. I was expecting something exaggerated and it is not.

It turned out better for it. Tan, 4 ft, across the front and down one side. Six weeks in and I am still happy with how the choice landed.

Ordered the White at 3.5 ft for a rental property. Tenants cannot damage it the way they did the last wood fence, and I am not repainting between leases. Went up in a day with nobody home.

Material warranty transfers, which matters if I sell the place. Two units done, a third scheduled for the fall.

Four foot Clay, 72 feet, done in a day and a half. The shop built the panels to our measurements so there was no filler piece at the end of the run.

That was the part I was picky about and they got it right. The run ends at the corner post clean, no half panel, no gap to explain. Worth the extra week of lead time.

Pool is behind the house with its own code fence, so out front we just wanted something decorative. The scalloped picket at 42 inches was the cheapest way to make the yard look finished.

It is not a barrier and it does not pretend to be. Reads well from the sidewalk and that is exactly what we paid for.

Had them do the 3.5 ft in Tan around the side garden. The two rail build is simple and there is nothing on it to trap leaves or dirt in the first place.

It blows clean with the leaf blower in about a minute. Eighteen months on and the only thing I have done to it is walk past it. Cannot complain about that.

White scallop at 4 ft across the front of a 1940s bungalow. I was worried vinyl would look cheap next to the wood siding and it does not. It fits the house better than anything modern would have.

Neighbors on both sides have asked for the company name. One of them has already had theirs done in Tan.

Got three quotes before deciding. One outfit would not touch a run under 50 feet and another wanted to sell me a solid privacy panel I did not ask for. The third never sent anything in writing.

These guys quoted the scalloped picket I asked about, in Clay, at 4 ft, and that is what showed up. Sometimes that is the whole review.

We used the 3.5 ft to separate the front lawn from the play area. It is low enough that I can see the kids over it from the kitchen window.

That was the whole requirement. Tan matched the trim close enough that nobody asks about it, which is what you want from a fence. Went up in one morning while I was at work.

The 4 ft in White is doing what the old wrought iron did without the rust runs down the stucco. Glendale sun ate that iron in six years. The scallop was my wife’s pick and it beat my flat top idea.

This has been up since spring and it is the same white it was in the truck. Nothing to sand, nothing to paint.

Clay 3.5 ft along the parkway strip. Ground there is soil, not concrete, and the posts were set deep enough that nothing has shifted since.

Sprinklers hit it twice a day and there is no water staining or mineral crust I cannot rinse off. Wood would have been done by now. It is the right material for that spot.

Low White picket with the wave top around the front porch beds. It is the storybook look I wanted and I did not have to give up the maintenance part.

No stain, no sanding, no wasps living in a rotted post. A hose in the spring and a hose in the fall and it stays looking new. That is the whole list for the year.

Tan at 4 ft, front and both side returns. Took them one day. The invoice matched the quote to the dollar, which is not something I get to say often.

Only thing I would flag is that the sales visit ran late by about an hour. They called, so it was not a surprise, just worth knowing. The rest of it was clean.

Wind out here comes down the canyon and takes shingles off. The open pickets let it through instead of catching it like a solid panel would. I did not think about that until the installer brought it up.

His reasoning has held up through two rounds of Santa Anas. Nothing loose, nothing leaning, no post pulling out of the soil.

Went back and forth between the arched top and the scalloped for a month. Scallop won because it repeats down the whole run instead of peaking once per panel.

Four foot, White, about 60 feet along the front of the house. My husband still thinks the arched would have been better. He is wrong and the neighbors agree with me.

Second fence I have had from them. Did the back in solid panels two years ago and just did the front in the scalloped picket. Different look, same build quality.

Same crew lead both times, which says something. White out front, and the low profile keeps the house visible from the street the way we wanted.

Fence is only 42 inches so it is not stopping anybody who wants in. We read the description and it says plainly it will not screen the yard. That was never the point for us.

It keeps the delivery guys on the walkway and the neighbor kids off the lawn. For that it has been perfect, and it looks a lot better than the shrub line it replaced.

Ordered Clay after seeing White and Tan samples in the sun. Clay held up best against our terracotta pots and the driveway. Worth asking for the samples before you commit.

Panels are 69 inches wide so our 38 foot run needed one cut down. They did it in the shop instead of on site and the cut end looks factory.

Three and a half foot Tan around a garden bed in Corona. Ten pickets to a panel and every gap is the same width, which is more than I could say for the wood one I built.

Posts went in with concrete footings. Six panels, half a day of work, and nothing left behind to clean up. I would use them again for the back.

Our lot backs a walking path and we wanted something decorative on the side facing it. The scalloped White at 4 ft did the job and did not annoy anyone using the path.

It is open, so nobody lost their view of the hills. That was half the point of picking a picket over a solid panel. The other half was the price.

Priced out cedar for the front first. It came in higher than the vinyl once you count stain and the labor to redo it in five years. The math was not close, and that was before the rot.

Went with the 4 ft Tan instead. Two months in and it looks the same as the day they left. I do not miss owning a paint sprayer.

Got a matching gate in the same White, with the scallop carried across the top of it. It lines up with the panels on both sides so the wave runs continuous through the opening.

Small detail, but it is the first thing people notice. Hinges are solid and there is no drag on the latch after a full summer of heat.

We put the low 3.5 ft in Clay between the yard and the walkway. It marks the line without making the front look boxed in. Clay was closer to our roof tile than the Tan sample.

My only gripe is that the first crew date got pushed a week. Once they were here the work itself was quick and clean, and the office called ahead both times.

This side of the yard takes sun from about noon until it goes down, and there is no sign of the fence giving up. No warping in the hollow rails, no yellowing anywhere on the White. A year in and it looks the same as day one.

Hosed it off in April after the pollen and it came back looking new. That is the entire maintenance list for the year.

Four foot Tan along the front, about 90 feet of it. The 5 by 5 posts are heavier than the ones on my neighbor’s fence and you can feel it when you push on a panel.

Vinyl came out of a US plant per the paperwork. Warranty on the material transfers if we sell, which mattered to us since we may not stay long.

I called four companies and two never called back. These guys came out, measured, and had a quote to me in two days. Not the cheapest of the four but not the highest either.

The fence itself is what I expected, a nice low White picket with the curved top. What I did not expect was the scheduling being that easy.

Went 4 ft Clay around the front yard so the dogs have a run without the yard feeling closed in. They can see the street, which they like more than I do.

Gaps between the pickets are narrow enough that the small one cannot squeeze through. Nine months and neither of them has tested a rail loose. The bottom rail sits tight to the grade too.

Had a chain link fence out front for thirty years and finally got tired of looking at it. The 3.5 ft White picket makes it a different house. Cheaper than I thought vinyl would run.

Crew was three guys, polite, and they cleaned up every scrap of the old fence. Hauled the chain link away too, which I was ready to deal with myself.

We have a slight grade along the front walk and I was worried the wave top would look crooked stepping down. The installer racked it so each panel follows the slope.

You have to look hard to see the steps. Three months in and I still like walking up to it. Tan was the right pick over White for our brick.

Ordered six panels in Clay for the front garden. Lead time was about three weeks from deposit which is what they told me up front. No surprise charges when the invoice came.

One panel showed up with a scuff on a picket and the crew swapped it that same week under the workmanship warranty. No argument, no paperwork.

Bought the 4 ft in Tan for a corner lot that faces two streets. It is not a privacy fence and we knew that going in. What we wanted was a clean boundary so people stop cutting the corner.

It does that. Kids on bikes go around now instead of through the lawn. Grass is finally coming back in that spot.

The scalloped top is the reason I picked this one. Every other vinyl fence I looked at finished dead level and looked like a rental property. This curves from post to post and the difference is real.

White was the obvious choice with our house being gray. It has been six months and one hose rinse is all the maintenance it has needed. No paint, no stain, no annual project.

Needed something low around the pool equipment and a section along the side yard. They did both in Tan at 3.5 ft and matched a gate to it. Most companies would not even quote the small run.

Gate latch lines up right and has not sagged. Whole job took a day and a half including the concrete. Price was fair for a job that small.

Four foot Clay across the front. I looked at a straight top picket first and the scallop just reads better from the street. It softens the line without being fussy. Ten pickets a panel, all evenly spaced.

A full summer of sun on it now and the color has not shifted. No chalking, no fading on the side that takes the afternoon light.

Our HOA has a list of approved fence styles and this one cleared it without a fight. I sent them the color name, Tan, and the height and that was the whole approval.

Install crew showed up on the day they said. They cut a custom width for the last section by the driveway so nothing looked chopped. Small thing but it matters.

The 3.5 ft White along the driveway edge does exactly what I wanted. Keeps the dog out of the flower beds without closing off the yard. Sits at 42 inches which is low enough to talk over.

Santa Ana winds came through in October and nothing moved. Posts are 5 by 5 and set deep. I was half expecting to find a panel in the street.

Replaced a rotted picket fence that had been up since the eighties. The vinyl scallop in White looks close enough to the original that the neighbors did not notice for a week.

Bottom rail has a metal insert in it, which the installer pointed out when I leaned on it. Feels solid for something this light. Rinse it with the hose and it is clean.

Went with 4 ft Clay to line the front of the property. The dog-ear caps on the pickets are a nice touch up close. Color is mixed through the vinyl so a scratch does not show white underneath.

Quote was about the same as two other outfits but they were the only ones willing to do a run this short. Installed nine days after I signed.

We wanted a border around the rose beds and not a wall, so the 3.5 ft version in Tan was the right call. The gaps between pickets let the light through to the plants.

It went up in one morning along a 40 foot run. The Tan reads warmer than I expected next to our stucco, which turned out fine. No complaints so far.

Put the 4 ft scalloped pickets in White across our front yard in Riverside. The wave along the top is what sold my wife on it. Looks a lot like the old wood picket we tore out, minus repainting it every other year.

Crew set the posts in concrete and had it done by mid afternoon. Curb appeal went up the same day. Two neighbors have asked who did it.
