Frequently Asked Questions
How many 6ft x 3ft picket fence panels do I need for a 10m run?
Each panel is 6 feet (1.8metres) wide, so you'll need approximately 1.1 panels per metre of fencing. For a 10-metre run, you'd need about 6 panels.
What post spacing is required for 6ft x 3ft picket fence panels?
Posts should be spaced 6 feet (1.8 metres) apart to match the panel width. Use 5ft posts to allow 2ft depth in the ground for a secure 3ft above-ground fence height.
Can I install picket fence panels on sloping ground?
Yes, but you'll need to step the panels to follow the slope rather than raking them. Each panel should remain level with gaps underneath filled with gravel boards or additional timber.
What's the difference between picket fence panels and close board fencing?
Picket fence panels have gaps between vertical slats for visibility and airflow, while close board fencing has overlapping boards for complete privacy. Picket fencing is more decorative and less expensive than close board options.
Do 6ft x 3ft picket fence panels come pre-treated?
Most panels come pressure-treated with preservative for outdoor use, but check with suppliers as some may be untreated. Pre-treated panels last 15-20 years, while untreated panels require immediate treatment before installation.
