What Is the Nantucket Classic Spade Picket Vinyl Fence?

The Catalyst Nantucket Classic Spade Picket Vinyl Fence is a refined 4' Tall x 8' Wide white picket fence that adds upscale charm and crisp definition to any property. Featuring decorative spade-topped pickets and engineered routed-rail construction, Nantucket delivers a more elevated version of the traditional white picket fence. It’s an excellent choice for front yards, gardens, walkways, and decorative boundaries where you want both openness and a polished, high-end look.

Nantucket is available in three top-rail configurations: Straight, Scalloped (Concave), and Arched (Convex). Because all three styles share the same post and rail system, you can mix and match panel profiles along the same fence line or use different tops to highlight gates, entryways, and focal areas in your landscape.

Benefits of the Nantucket Fence

  • Upscale spade picket profile: The decorative spade-topped pickets give Nantucket a more elegant, tailored appearance than a standard flat-top or dog-ear picket. This makes it ideal for homes where curb appeal and architectural detail are a priority.
  • Three configurable top styles: Choose Straight for a clean, traditional look; Scalloped for soft, concave curves; or Arched for a graceful, convex rise. All three can be combined in one layout to create custom patterns and visual interest.
  • Open, welcoming visibility: Evenly spaced pickets define property lines and guide views without blocking them. This open design is perfect for front yards, gardens, and corner lots where sightlines and neighborhood visibility matter.
  • Engineered rails with advanced performance: Nantucket panels use reinforced vinyl rails designed to help resist sagging and maintain straight, consistent runs over time. SolarGuard® color protection and StayStraight® rail technology (as listed in Catalyst literature) support fade resistance and structural stability.
  • Durable, low-maintenance vinyl: The smooth white vinyl will not rot, splinter, peel, or need painting like wood. Routine rinsing or an occasional wash with mild soap and water is typically all that’s required to keep the fence looking bright.
  • Consistent 4' x 8' panel size: Standardized 4' Tall x 8' Wide sections make layout planning simple and help minimize post count on longer runs, saving time and materials during installation.
  • Compatible posts, caps, and gates: Nantucket panels pair with 5" x 5" routed vinyl posts and multiple post-cap options, plus matching gates in Straight, Scalloped, and Arched profiles for a fully coordinated system.

Common Uses for the Nantucket Fence

Nantucket is especially popular as a front-yard statement fence, framing walks, drives, and garden beds with classic white-picket appeal and an elevated spade profile. It’s also widely used along side yards, around ornamental gardens, and as a decorative perimeter for outdoor living areas. Because you can combine Straight, Scalloped, and Arched sections, Nantucket works well on properties that call for a custom-designed, “postcard-ready” fence line.
