The Catalyst Hudson 6' Tall x 8' Wide Semi-Private Fence Panel offers the ideal mix of privacy and airflow. Designed with fourteen 3/4" x 6" vinyl pickets, Hudson’s spacing pattern reduces visibility while letting breezes pass through, making it an excellent choice for warm climates or yards needing ventilation. The panel is built on the Catalyst 2" x 6" Vertex Base Rail for enhanced structural integrity and straight fence lines. Hudson comes in a clean White finish that complements a wide variety of homes and outdoor environments. Posts, caps, and accessories are sold separately, giving you flexibility when planning your fence layout.
Why Choose This
- Balanced airflow and privacy — Semi-private design offers more airflow than a solid privacy panel while still limiting sightlines for comfort and security.
- Durable Vertex Base Rail — The 2" x 6" Vertex Base Rail helps maintain straighter lines, supporting the panel against wind and long-term wear.
- Consistent visual spacing — Fourteen evenly sized pickets create a uniform appearance and predictable privacy level across the entire fence.
- Bright white finish — Classic White vinyl complements traditional and modern homes alike and gives outdoor spaces a clean, polished look.
- Low maintenance vinyl — No painting, staining, or sanding required; simply rinse as needed to keep panels looking fresh.
- Flexible system components — Posts, caps, panels, and hardware are ordered separately so you can customize your fence line.

Installation
Hudson semi-private panels install into 5" x 5" routed vinyl posts using the panel’s designated rail and picket spacing pattern. Set posts in concrete according to local building requirements and ensure they are plumb before attaching the 2" x 6" Vertex Base Rail and upper components. Insert and secure all fourteen pickets to maintain consistent spacing for airflow and privacy. Finish with matching white post caps and ensure all hardware is suitable for outdoor vinyl applications.
Buying Guide
- Measure your layout — Panels are 8' wide; divide your fence run by 8 to determine the number of sections and posts needed.
- Consider airflow needs — Hudson’s design is ideal for warm climates or areas where wind movement is important.
- Order matching posts and caps — Use white 5" x 5" vinyl posts and post caps for a consistent appearance.
- Plan gate locations early — Determine access points before setting posts so spacing aligns with 8' panel widths.
- Stay within the Hudson system — Use the Vertex Base Rail and matching white components to ensure structural and visual consistency.
