Thinking about upgrading your fence? If you have small dogs, live in a neighborhood with HOA requirements, or just want a sleek and safe option, a puppy picket aluminum fence might be exactly what you need.
We recently completed a 4-foot high aluminum puppy picket installation here in Jacksonville, and the transformation speaks for itself (check out the before and after photos below!).

What Is a Puppy Picket Fence?
A puppy picket fence is a type of aluminum fence that includes closely spaced pickets at the bottom—typically the first 18–24 inches of the panel. This keeps small dogs and puppies from squeezing through while still maintaining an open and elegant design.
Benefits of a Puppy Picket Aluminum Fence
1. Pet Safety:
The biggest benefit is right in the name. Puppy pickets are designed to prevent small pets from slipping through or getting stuck between standard pickets. It’s peace of mind in every panel.
2. Elegant and HOA-Friendly:
Aluminum fences offer a clean, upscale look that works well with many HOA guidelines. The black powder-coated finish is low maintenance and rust-resistant—perfect for Jacksonville’s humid, coastal climate.
3. Durability in Florida Weather:
Unlike wood, aluminum doesn’t rot, warp, or splinter in the Florida heat and rain. It stands up to the elements year-round with little upkeep required.
4. Great Visibility:
A puppy picket fence gives you the best of both worlds: safety for your pets without blocking the view of your beautiful backyard.
5. Adds Value and Curb Appeal:
This style of fencing enhances your property’s appearance. Whether you’re planning to stay for years or sell down the road, it adds real value.
