Austin's Mission-Driven Fencing company

We believe in exceptional craftsmanship — and the power of rebuilding lives

everyone deserves the chance to start again

Working alongside local prison ministries and reentry programs, we kept meeting the same kind of person — someone who had paid their debt, was ready to work hard and provide for their family, but couldn’t get a fair shot. We saw talent, discipline, and determination the job market overlooked. So we did something about it. 

We launched a fencing company that holds two commitments equally:

Deliver exceptional craftsmanship to our customers, building beautiful fences that last for decades.

Offer meaningful, accountable employment to individuals ready for a new chapter — complete with mentorship, benefits, and structure.

who we work with

Three things in this order

Everything we do at Pickets ladders up to these. When something gets hard, this is what we come back to.

Quality Without Compromise

Every fence is built like it’s our own backyard. Concrete footings, steel posts, kiln-dried cedar. Tight pickets, true lines, finished caps. The work is the proof.

Second Chances

Every install creates paid,
accountable work for someone rebuilding their life. We hire from Austin reentry programs and stay alongside our crew long after the first paycheck.

Show Up, Stand Behind It

We answer the phone. We arrive on the day we said. We finish what we quoted. And if something is off after we leave, we come back and make it right — that’s not customer service, that’s the standard.

A fence is also a paycheck

Every linear foot we install funds real, accountable work for someone ready to start over. We partner directly with Austin reentry programs to find the people the job market won’t look twice at — and we put them on a crew that takes the work seriously.

Mentorship comes built in. Benefits come standard. Structure comes from the job itself. The fence has to be perfect either way — so it’s the right place to learn what perfect looks like.
