Materials
Traditionally, wood has been a very popular choice for picket fences. However, due to the regular painting required to keep it freshly white, combined with the need to replace it due to the outdoor elements, PVC has been increasing in popularity for picket fences. PVC is widely available in white, and therefore does not need any painting. Most quality PVC comes with a limited lifetime warranty, so it does not rot or need replacing like wood.
