The wood picket fence is made using all pressure treated wood.  Cut the pickets at least 2″ shorter than the final height so there is a gap at the bottom.  Nails can be used on all parts but screws should be used attaching the 2×4 wood rails in case repairs are needed.  It’s best to stain the fence with a solid white stain for long term protection. It can be painted in later years.
