You have choices when it comes to purchasing a vinyl fence. Illustrated below are some of differences between a lattice topped vinyl fence that can be purchased off the shelf at your local big box store and our Curious George vinyl fence. Plus, you might be surprised at a cost comparison. We understand that some of these differences might be important to you and some of them might not be. We are a little biased (just a little!) towards you purchasing our product for obvious reasons. That being said, we want whatever works best for you. In other words, if you're happy we're happy!
