Picket Fences

The all-American white picket fence carries all the neatness and formality of white gloves. Construction of a handsome picket fence requires patience, precision, and an attention to detail such as constantly measuring little distances and checking alignments with a bubble level. The designs of pre-cut pickets available in most lumber yards are quite limited. With a little extra effort and imagination, you can customize a picket top and have it cut out by a lumber yard. You could also do it yourself with a C clamp and a saber saw.

The cost of constructing a picket fence is roughly comparable to that of a split-rail fence. The picket fence is mainly a decorative item. Its low height and openness make it a friendly and attractive boundary statement that deflects wandering pets and people but not motivated intruders. The picket fence also seems to have a unique capacity for unlimited absorption of all of the creativity that you can give it.
