Choosing Between Composite, Wood and Vinyl Panels?
Choosing the right fence material shouldn't be a choice you take lightly - hopefully, the choice you make will be with you for many decades. When it comes to choosing between composite, wood, and vinyl panels, there are several factors to consider.
The Rundown
Composite panels are crafted from a combination of wood fibers and plastic, they skillfully replicate the beauty of wood with the bonus of low-maintenance, akin to vinyl. Resistant to fading, warping, and rotting, these panels offer durability for outdoor use.
Wood panels certainly provide a traditional, organic aesthetic. However, they require consistent upkeep with staining or painting to maintain their look and defend against the elements and pests.
Vinyl panels offer excellent resistance to moisture, insects, and rot and are virtually maintenance-free. They come in a variety of colors and styles, suitable for any design. However, for those seeking the look of wood with less maintenance, composite panels are a worthy contender.

Of course, we'll have some bias toward the product we know and love - our 360 cap coat fencing will last over 30 years, will never require expensive painting or staining and reduces millions of pounds of plastic waste.

WPC Fence Picket Installation Guide
Know before you buy:
-
Each picket pack from our store comes with 5 wood plastic composite fence pickets
-
The pickets are designed to be used in a 6 ft fence installation as a standard but can be cut to size depending on your unique needs using a 60-tooth carbide circular saw blade
-
Dog ear design pickets also can be cut using a 60-tooth carbide circular saw blade should you wish to do so
-
For 6 ft height fence panels, 4 rails should be used with Frame it All Cap Composite Pickets for appropriate structural support.
-
To compensate for the expansion/contraction of the composite material, we recommend pre-drilling the pickets and utilizing Starborn Industries Epoxy Coated Fascia Screw #10 X 1-7/8". Starborn Fascia Screws should only be utilized when installing Cap Composite Pickets onto Wood rails.
