A well-built picket fence adds curb appeal, defines property lines, and keeps kids and pets where they belong. Frontier Fences Mobile has served Mobile since 2018, handling picket fence installation, storm and rot repairs, and full replacements in wood, vinyl, and aluminum.
Good picket fence work starts with layout and a stable base. We verify your fence line and gate swings, check grade changes, and set post spacing for the picket style and rail system you choose (common bays are 6-8 feet). Posts are set with proper depth and plumb, using concrete footings and drainage considerations so the fence stays straight and resists wind load. For repairs, we diagnose the root cause first, whether it is a loose post, failed fasteners, rail sag, or soil movement, then rebuild the section to match the existing profile and spacing.
Along the Gulf Coast, picket fence materials need to handle humidity, heavy rain, UV, and salt air. For wood picket fence projects, we commonly use pressure-treated pine posts and rails, with cedar or pressure-treated pickets depending on budget and the look you want, and we specify exterior-rated fasteners to reduce staining and premature failure. Vinyl picket fence is a solid low-maintenance option when you want consistent color and straight lines, while aluminum picket fence works well where you want an open look with corrosion-resistant powder coating. Finishing matters, so we align picket tops, keep consistent ground clearance for drainage and mowing, and can prep for stain or paint by correcting rough cuts and exposed end grain.
Mobile customers choose us because we build picket fence systems that stay square, latch right, and look uniform from the street. You get clear options on style, height, and spacing, plus practical advice on gate hardware, hinge locations, and post sizes so the fence performs as well as it looks. Our crews show up with the right equipment for clean installs and repairs, from post-hole augers and levels to concrete mixing tools and saws for precise rail and picket cuts, and we keep the jobsite orderly. If you are replacing a failing fence, we can phase work by sections to keep your yard secured and minimize downtime.
At the end of the job, we do a walkthrough to confirm picket alignment, post caps, rail connections, and gate operation, including latch engagement and clearance over uneven ground. You receive a written scope of work and a straightforward estimate up front, plus material recommendations that fit your maintenance expectations and budget. For repairs, we match picket profiles and spacing as closely as possible, reinforce weak points, and confirm the rest of the run is stable so you are not chasing the next failure. The result is a picket fence that looks clean, functions smoothly, and is built to handle local weather.

A picket fence should look crisp and stay straight through heat, rain, and storms. Frontier Fences Mobile installs and repairs wood, vinyl, and aluminum picket fence systems, including leaning sections, broken pickets, sagging rails, loose posts, and gate problems. Whether you want classic curb appeal or a low-maintenance perimeter, we help you choose the right picket style, height, spacing, and gate layout, then build it on a stable base designed for long-term performance.
Picket fence installation starts with the details most people do not see: post depth, post spacing, and rail connections. We set corners and runs to line up cleanly, account for grade changes, and keep ground clearance for drainage and trimming. For wood picket fence builds, we typically use pressure-treated structural lumber where it counts, and we can add staining or paint-ready prep depending on your finish plan. For vinyl picket fence, we focus on clean panel alignment and properly secured posts to prevent racking and movement. For aluminum picket fence, we prioritize corrosion resistance and durable hardware that holds up in wet conditions.
Picket fence repair is often about stabilizing the system, not just swapping a few boards. If a section leans, we check the post base, soil washout, and fastener failures, then reset or replace posts as needed before rebuilding rails and pickets. For gates, we correct sag with proper hinges, post reinforcement, and latch alignment so the gate closes smoothly without dragging. When you need replacement, we can remove the old fence, haul away debris, and install a new picket fence that matches your style goals and maintenance expectations.
If you are ready to install a new picket fence or fix a failing one, we will walk the line with you, confirm the plan, and provide a free written estimate.
