No. Vinyl fence system components are available in a wide range of sizes and thickness. To reduce costs, some manufacturers decrease additives such as impact modifiers or use chalking TiO2, resulting in reduced strength and ultimately yielding inferior fence systems.

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) possesses excellent fire performance properties and in particular will not burn once the source of heat or flame is removed. As measured by a standard test (ASTM D 1929) with a flash ignition temperature of 391 degrees Celsius, PVC is among the least easily ignitable polymers.

OK Vinyl Products have an entirely vinyl gate system riveted on the corners for strength. For small man gates this is sufficient however for larger gates a fully welded steel frame is necessary and the vinyl gate is attached to the steel. This prevents sagging and provide the highest level of strength, durability and customer satisfaction. We also only use hinges which have a lifetime warranty and are locking and self closing with an adjustable tension.

As with all exterior products, our fence will become dirty when exposed to the elements. In most cases a wash with the hose will suffice. However see the attached for a guide for cleaning all stubborn stains. View Our Vinyl Fence Maintenance Page

Mildew feeds off of organic materials. Vinyl (PVC) is non-organic and therefore does not support mildew. Mildew that grows on Vinyl is actual feeding off of the organic materials (dirt) that have become embedded in or stuck to the vinyl. Homeland profiles have a high gloss and smooth, non-porous surface that makes it very difficult for organic materials to attach to, and therefore, for mildew to thrive on. This, combined with the use of non-chalking TiO2 helps to prevent most mildew growth. The surface of vinyl fence that contains chalking TiO2 deteriorates at a much more accelerated level compared to non-chalking TiO2 creating a rougher surface that dirt and therefore mildew can attach itself more easily to. Only under very consistently damp conditions will the possibility of mildew occur. If mildew does appear, a mild solution of bleach and water will easily remove it.
