The rail count sets how much the fence reads as a boundary and how much it contains.
- The view stays
Catalyst's own point: it sets boundaries in residential and commercial spaces without compromising the view.
- A painted look without paint
The catalog's phrase is the crisp look of a perfectly painted fence, in fade-resistant finishes.
- Rails that stay straight
Catalyst's StayStraight® construction guards the rails against bending and sagging in any weather.
- Color that holds
SolarGuard® fade resistance keeps the finish from chalking or yellowing in full Carolina sun.
- The wood look without the wood
The TimberGrain™ tier is an embossed woodgrain texture you can feel, with no splinters, rot, staining or peeling.
- Made by Catalyst, installed by us
Catalyst Fence Solutions manufactures the Coronado, and the image above is its product visualization, not a photograph of a Chonko Construction job. We are the installing builder.
The Coronado comes in two tiers.
Heights 3, 4 and 5 feet.
Heights 3, 4 and 5 feet.
- checkPanel widths. 6 and 8 feet. Walk gates and drive gates are built to match the panel, and we set post depth and spacing to the height you choose. TimberGrain rails are offered in the 6 foot width; the Standard colors are offered in 8.
Pick the Coronado when the job is the property line, not privacy.
The classic ranch rail, which is what the profile is for.
Fewer parts per foot than any panel fence, and the sightline across the property stays.
A three or four rail run along a drive marks the approach without enclosing it.
- air
A screened section too. Catalyst pairs the Coronado with the woodgrain of Breckenridge where part of the property needs privacy.

- Posts
- 5 by 5 inch posts set in concrete footings, sized to the rail count.
- Gates
- Gate kits do not include rails; rails are bought separately and cut to fit, which we handle in the order.
- Top rail
- Catalyst builds its vinyl fence on ten named top rails: Element Grand, Element LX Premium, Element Limited, Element Reserve, Element Signature, Element Base, Vertex Grand, Vertex Signature, Vertex Base and Apex. Which one your panel carries follows the grade and the panel size, so it is confirmed on the order rather than chosen off a page.
Post caps are a choice, not a default.
- check_circle
Nine vinyl caps. Pyramid, Internal, Gothic, New England, Ball, Neptune, Federation, Contemporary and Solar.
- check_circle
The solar cap lights the line. Catalyst's Solar Post Cap puts off-the-grid landscape lighting on the posts, with no wiring to run.
- check_circle
Pick it with the style. The cap is the part of the fence you see at eye level from the house. We price the caps with the panels, so it is one number rather than a change order later.
Top rail profiles
drawn to scale, 10 in the programWhich rail your panel carries follows its grade and size, so it is confirmed on the order rather than chosen off a page. Three of the ten are supplied through Catalyst’s lineal program.
For the Coronado, the number moves with linear footage first, then the height you choose (3 to 5 ft), the gates, and the ground the posts go into. The full breakdown of what moves a vinyl fence price is on the vinyl fence page; we set the exact figure in writing after we walk the property.

Vinyl in the Midlands
Vinyl suits South Carolina's climate.
- Humidity. It does not rot, and termites have nothing to eat.
- Sun. UV-stabilized panels resist the fading and yellowing strong Carolina sun causes over time.
- Wind and storms. Set on properly spaced posts in concrete footings, a solid panel carries Midlands storm wind.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many rails should I pick?add
Two reads as a boundary, three is the common residential choice, four is the tightest. If the fence has to hold an animal, the rail count and the height are the conversation, and often a wire backer goes with it.
Will the Coronado keep a dog in?add
On its own, no. Open rail is a boundary. Pet owners usually pair it with a mesh or add a closed picket section.
Is this the same as the aluminum Coronado?add
No. Catalyst uses the name on two different products. This is the vinyl ranch rail; the aluminum Coronado is the metal version.
What is a vinyl ranch rail fence?add
The Coronado is open rail fencing: two, three or four horizontal rails between posts, and nothing else. The Coronado is Catalyst Fence Solutions' version of it, and Chonko Construction installs it across Columbia and the Midlands under one written contract.
What heights does the Coronado come in?add
3 to 5 ft. We match the height to the job: privacy and pool code want the taller end, a front-yard boundary usually wants the shorter.
Can the Coronado be installed on a slope?add
Yes. On a grade we rack or step the panels so the fence follows the slope and stays level, and we show you which approach fits before any post is set.
Which colors does the Coronado come in?add
5 colors: Weathered Blend, Sierra Blend, Brazilian Blend, Arctic Blend, White. Ask which are quick-ship, because it changes the start date.
