Picket Fences
In Melbourne a Picket Fence is a traditional standout statement that is still trending in every suburb.
A Picket Fence is a versatile look which can put the finishing touches on a range of home styles, from the traditional weatherboard to a Californian bungalow and can even give a classic finish to your modern home.
At Melbourne Fencing & Decking we offer a huge range of styles and options to choose from.
The Process for your Picket Fence:
- Choose whether you want a Basic or feature Picket Fence. Posts being exposed would make it a Feature and hidden posts are a basic.
- Decide if you want your fence to be constructed level or follow the contour of the land. This depends on the style of fence you are after and the slope of your land.
- Select the style and height of your Picket Fence. For ideas and inspiration scroll down and view our materials range and completed jobs.
We can also offer guidance on each of these steps to give you the best suited fence for your property.
