Overview
What Is a Extended Picket Vinyl Fence?
An extended picket vinyl fence features pickets that project significantly above the top rail — typically 6-8 inches — creating a tall, exposed picket section that makes the fence appear more imposing than its installed height. The projecting tips create a visual and physical barrier that discourages climbing. This style bridges the gap between decorative picket fencing and security fencing.
Extended picket vinyl is popular for commercial and semi-commercial Houston properties where security deterrence and clean aesthetics are both important. The projecting picket tops create an aggressive deterrent without the aggressive-looking materials (iron, barbed wire) that are inappropriate for many Houston neighborhoods and commercial frontages.
Why Vinyl? The Low-Maintenance Choice for Houston
Extended picket vinyl uses heavier-wall picket profiles to maintain rigidity for the portion projecting above the rail. The top cap rail provides support at the standard height, and the extended section above is self-supporting. Picket top profiles include flat, spear-point, and Gothic options in the extended configuration.
All vinyl fence panels are made from virgin PVC (not recycled), UV-stabilized and impact-modified for Houston's climate extremes. Posts are 5"x5" or 4"x4" aluminum-reinforced vinyl set in 36-inch concrete footings. All hardware is marine-grade stainless steel for a truly rust-free installation.
Key Benefits
Security Deterrence
Pickets extending 6-8 inches above the top rail create visible projecting tips that physically and psychologically deter unauthorized fence climbing and entry.
Clean Commercial Look
Extended picket vinyl provides security-level deterrence with a clean, polished appearance that satisfies both security requirements and aesthetic standards for commercial Houston properties.
Height Impression
A 5-foot fence with extended pickets looks and feels like a 6-foot fence. The projecting tips create an effective visual height impression beyond the actual installed height.
Zero Painting — Ever
Vinyl's color runs through the entire material — it never needs painting, staining, or sealing. Clean with a garden hose to keep it looking new.
Color Options
Available in white (most popular), almond, tan, gray, and black. White vinyl remains brilliant even in Houston's intense UV without yellowing.
