Description

Legend picket fences are made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), extruded with virgin vinyl. The vinyl's UV inhibitors and additives make it rigid, but flexible enough to resist cracking. The fence consists of vertical pickets that fasten onto dimensional horizontal rails. These rails insert into four-inch square posts. The picket style is available in two widths and three top-configuration options.

Applications

Picket fences are predominately for residential use or as accent fences in light commercial applications. These designs are great for marking boundaries without obstructing visibility. The characteristics of this product make it durable and virtually maintenance free.

Features and Benefits

  • Legend picket fences are made of virgin vinyl, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), co-extruded for the structural members and mono-extruded for the smaller profiles enhancing strength and durability.
  • UV inhibitors eliminate abnormal discoloration and impact modifiers ensure strength and flexibility.
  • Legend will never rot, warp, corrode, rust and never need painting which reduces maintenance costs.
  • Legend posts and rails have a heavier wall thickness, respectively than standard vinyl fencing for a sturdier fence.
  • The heavier wall post and rail configuration along with the notched rails contributes to greater resistance to pull-out and stronger fastening.
  • Stainless steel gate hardware will never rust.
  • Selected styles with matching gates and a variety of different post caps complement each style.
  • Lifetime limited warranty provides the confidence and assurance that you've selected the best vinyl fence system available.
