In a world of passing trends, Colonial picket fencing remains an enduring symbol of American home aesthetics. There's a profound reason this classic design has graced New England properties for centuries—it perfectly balances function, form, and timeless appeal.


The Timeless Appeal of Colonial Picket

Colonial picket fencing isn't just a boundary marker—it's an architectural statement that enhances your property's character. Its clean, vertical lines create visual interest while maintaining an open, welcoming feel. This quintessential fence style works harmoniously with:


  • Historic colonial homes

  • Traditional Cape Cod cottages

  • Modern farmhouse designs

  • Craftsman bungalows

  • Contemporary suburban homes


The versatility of Colonial picket fencing allows it to complement nearly any architectural style while adding that distinctive touch of New England charm.

Quality Materials Make the Difference

At PRO Fence, we understand that true quality begins with superior materials. That's why our Colonial picket fences are crafted exclusively from select cedar:


Why Cedar Stands Superior:

  • Natural beauty with distinctive grain patterns and warm coloration

  • Natural resistance to insects, rot, and decay

  • Dimensional stability that minimizes warping and twisting

  • Aromatic properties that enhance your outdoor experience

  • Environmentally sustainable choice from renewable resources


Unlike pressure-treated alternatives, cedar offers natural durability without chemical treatments, making it safer for families, pets, and gardens.


Custom-Crafted, Never Pre-Fabricated

The secret to our Colonial picket fencing's distinctive appearance lies in our commitment to custom craftsmanship. We don't rely on mass-produced kits or one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead:


  • Each fence is measured and designed specifically for your property

  • Pickets are precisely cut to ensure consistent spacing and alignment

  • Posts are strategically positioned to maximize strength and visual appeal

  • Gates are custom-built to match the fence's design perfectly

  • Height and style variations are tailored to your specific preferences


This custom approach ensures your Colonial picket fence follows the natural contours of your landscape, accommodates mature trees or gardens, and addresses any unique features of your property.


The Art of Proper Installation

A beautifully designed fence requires expert installation to truly shine. Our professional installation teams bring decades of experience to every project:


  1. Proper post setting at the correct depth and spacing

  2. Precise alignment that follows property lines and grade changes

  3. Secure mounting techniques that withstand New England weather

  4. Attention to detail in every cut, joint, and fastener

  5. Clean finishing that leaves your property looking immaculate


Our installation process ensures your Colonial picket fence stands straight and true for years to come.


A Statement of Subtle Elegance

What makes Colonial picket fencing so enduring is its ability to enhance without overwhelming. As we like to say, "It's the kind of fence that says 'home' without needing to shout." This understated elegance creates:


  • A welcoming boundary that defines without isolating

  • A framework that enhances landscaping and architectural features

  • A backdrop for flowering plants and ornamental shrubs

  • A classic New England aesthetic that never goes out of style
