THE VIRTUES AND BENEFITS OF TREX® FENCING
AESTHETICS
The virtues and benefits of a Trex Fence are numerous. It’s likely that some or all of the following attributes of a fence will matter to you. See how Trex Fencing stacks up. We’re confident you’ll be convinced that Trex is the right decision for your next fence.
• Beauty As Well As Function
Let’s face it, not only does this fence serve its purpose, but it also looks great. With its proprietary blend of wood and plastic, this composite fence will continue to look great for years to come.
• Same Look on Both Sides
A fence that even your neighbors will love; no one will be getting the ugly side now. Your neighbors will be so pleased with this fence that they might even be willing to chip in on the cost to build it.
• Picture Frame with Board on Board Design
This fence has all of the bells and whistles. The unique picture frame design not only gives a finished look on both sides of the fence but also creates nice clean lines across the top and bottom. The interlocking pickets also create a look of a board on board design creating depth and richness to the fence.
• Three Natural Colors
Trex Fencing is available in three natural color choices that will compliment virtually any colors that you have on your property. Choose Woodland Brown (a rich dark color) for a more elegant look, Saddle (a light tan color) for a more natural look, or Winchester Grey (weathers to a light grey) for a more contemporary or modern look. Did we also mention, this fence will never need to be painted or stained?
PRIVACY AND SECURITY
• Interlocking Pickets with no mid rail
The interlocking picket design of this fence product not only gives you full privacy, but it also eliminates bowing, gaps from shrinkage, and gives strength to this fence. Due to these features, there is no need for a mid rail, which creates a more secure fence that is not easily climbed.
• Can Be Built up to 12’ Tall
Trex Fencing is a component fence system, so it can easily be built from 2’ to 12’ heights. If you are looking for the virtues and benefits of added privacy and/or security, then Trex Fencing will fit your need.
• Matching Gates W/ Lockable Latches
Our Gates have a welded internal steel frame and are designed to match the look of the fence. This gives you a strong and good looking gate that blends in with the rest of your fence. All gate latches will also accommodate paddle locks on either side for additional security.
LOW-MAINTENANCE
• No Painting Or Staining
Some of the most important virtues and benefits of a Trex fence are the attributes that make the fence virtually hands-off. This unique composite product of wood fiber and plastic eliminates the negative attributes of a typical wood fence. Trex Fencing is pigmented throughout the product so it will never need to be painted or stained. An occasional wash with soap and water is all it will take to keep this fence looking great.
• Won't Rot, Split Or Splinter
Trex Fencing will not rot, split, or splinter like your old wood fence. Save the time and money you will spend replacing rotted wood posts, broken and cracked pickets and rails on a wood fence and install a Trex Fence.
• Resistant To Insects
Trex Fencing is resistant to insects such as termites. Instead of continually feeding these insects and replacing a wood fence, get Trex Fencing and enjoy your backyard activities without worrying about fence repairs.

• Withstands 130 MPH Winds and 147 MPH Gusts
Trex Seclusions Fencing has been tested to withstand 130 MPH sustained winds and 147 MPH gusts. If your house is still standing, chances are so will your Trex Fence.
• Strong Long Lasting Posts
Trex Fencing posts will not degrade or rot with time, so the most important part of your fence will continue to remain strong. A Trex Fencing post is over 4 times the thickness of a standard Vinyl or PVC post and its built to withstand almost anything that nature sends its way.
• Interlocking Pickets
Trex Fencing pickets are interlocking giving the fence increased strength and durability. The interlocking picket design prevents blow out from strong winds, prevents warping and gaps from shrinkage.
• Reinforced Aluminum Bottom Rail
Trex Seclusions Fence uses a uniquely designed bottom rail that supports the weight of the fence and prevents sagging. The bottom rail is constructed using an aluminum I-Beam with a track that a Trex Fencing picket slides over.
• Steel Gate Post Inserts
Trex Fencing Posts are hollow so a steel post insert can be slid inside for increased strength when needed – such as for supporting heavy gates.
FLEXIBILITY IN DESIGN
• Can Slope or Step
Trex Fencing is a component system. This means that rather than using pre-built panels, Trex Fencing can be built to follow the contours of the ground. So if your yard is anything but level, and you do not want gaps under your fence where animals can crawl under, then Trex Fencing will meet your needs.
• Can Follow any Angle
Trex Seclusions Fencing is built using a bracketed system. This system allows for the fence to take any turn or angle using fence angle brackets which snap onto the standard fence bracket.
• Can Be Built From 2’ to 12’ Tall
Trex Fencing Posts come in lengths of 8’, 9’ and 12’ for standard fence heights of up to 8’ tall. Add a steel post insert to build up to 12’ tall.
• Multiple Use and Applications
The virtues and benefits of a flexible product like Trex is the ability to use it in a variety of ways besides a straight-up fence. Trex Fencing components are versatile and can be cut to length to create numerous fence heights or widths. These adjustable components allow you to create multiple designs and styles. The posts are not routed, so they’re perfect for other applications including many other fence types such as iron or wood. Since the post is hollow, it will easily slide over a steel post or base to be mounted on a concrete wall.
ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

Trex is comprised of 95% recycled content. No trees have ever been cut down to manufacture Trex materials and Trex is one of the largest buyers of used plastic bags in the world. The green building virtues and benefits of a Trex fence make it an environmentally responsible solution for projects that require it.
• Green Manufacturing Products
Trex implements green manufacturing practices to reduce its carbon footprint and waste. It also sources materials close to its plant in Fernley, NV where the fence is manufactured.
• LEED Certified
Trex participates in the U.S. Green Building Council, which manages the world-class LEED points system. LEED is a green building certification program.
