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:
Proper post setting at the correct depth and spacing
Precise alignment that follows property lines and grade changes
Secure mounting techniques that withstand New England weather
Attention to detail in every cut, joint, and fastener
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
