Materials
Picket Fences are made from a variety of tubular materials, including galvanized steel, wrought iron, aluminum, powder-coated steel, and metal alloys. Galvanized steel is one of the most popular options, as it is strong, corrosion-resistant, and easy to paint or apply a protective coating to. Aluminum is lightweight, robust, corrosion resistant. Vinyl coated steel picket fences are typically more durable and resistant to corrosion than galvanized steel ornamental picket fences. Vinyl coated fences also usually require less maintenance.

Installation
There are two primary ways to install a steel picket fence. The first is to bury posts in concrete and use screws to attach the pickets directly to the posts. The second option is to use pre-fabricated panels and attach them to the posts with brackets. In either case, the posts must be firmly secured into the ground for stability. The spacing of the fence posts is determined by the height of the fence and the size of the pickets. Generally, pickets should be spaced 1/2 inch apart.

Vinyl Coated Steel Picket Fence or Galvanized Stel Picket Fence?

Vinyl coated steel picket fences are more durable and weather resistant than galvanized steel picket fences. Vinyl coated steel pickets come in a variety of colors and styles, making them great for decoration. Galvanized steel picket fences are made from heavier gauge steel, making them more impact resistant than vinyl coated fences. They also require less maintenance and can last longer if not exposed to excessive moisture.
