Bring classic style to your yard with this Western Red Cedar French Gothic spaced picket fence panel kit. This kit includes individual pickets and backer rails to build one fence panel and ships unassembled; assembly is required. The spaced design allows airflow and visibility while helping define outdoor spaces. Cedar construction naturally resists rot and insects for long‑lasting above‑ground fence use; posts and fasteners are sold separately.

Hi David, these panel kits do come unassembled.
Are 4by4 included
Hello Cheryl, no the 4x4 posts are sold separately.
Hello Lorena, there is one panel kit per package. Each panel kit will include 27 pickets and two backer rails.
Hi Glenn, unfortunately, this product does not have an option for 6" pickets.
Annie, here are the instructions that were listed under the Installation guide on the Product Details section. To install loose pickets to backer rails, use 8d or 10d box nails. Start at one end of the rail and check for level and plumb every three or four pickets. If you wish to build a solid “privacy” fence, butt the pickets without leaving a gap in between. To build a spaced picket fence, cut a board the width of the desired gap and use it as a spacer. Remember to check for plumb every few pickets. Use three backer rails for fences 6' tall and higher and two rails for shorter fences. Note: Attach rails 4" from the top and bottom of pickets to minimize picket movement.
Edgar, The panel is listed as 3-1/2 ft. (42 in.) tall instead of 4 ft. because that is its actual finished height — fence panels are often sized in nominal heights that differ from whole foot increments once manufactured. This sizing helps meet common residential fence height requirements and makes the panel easier to install without additional trimming. If you need a full 4-ft. height, you might consider pairing it with a taller panel or adding a topper, and your local Pro Desk can help explore available options.
Mine did.
brain, this fence panel does not come with screws. The appropriate hardware needed for installing the panel will need to be purchased separately.
While the cedar wood used in these panels is naturally resistant to rot and decay, the product information doesn't specify if they are UV protected.
