Catalyst builds the panel as one piece rather than stacking boards, so the face reads as a continuous plane instead of a run of slats.
- 100 percent privacy
The panel is gap-free the whole way up. The horizontal orientation is a style choice, not a trade-off in coverage.
- Rails that stay straight
Catalyst's StayStraight® construction guards the rails against bending and sagging in any weather. Select and Standard builds add structural post channels behind the rail so a long horizontal run holds its line.
- 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 Madison, and the image above is its product visualization, not a photograph of a Chonko Construction job. We are the installing builder.
The Madison comes in three tiers, and the tier decides the finish and the colors.





Heights 4, 5 and 6 feet.

Quick-ship
Quick-shipHeight 6 feet.

Height 6 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.
Pick the Madison when you want full privacy in a contemporary line.
The horizontal run suits flat rooflines, dark window frames and modern siding in a way a vertical board fence does not.
With no board joints in the face, the panel works as a backdrop for a patio, a pool deck or a planting bed.
Five of the nine colors are quick-ship, so the Madison is one of the faster full-privacy panels to start.
- air
The open version. Catalyst pairs the Madison with the Largo, the same horizontal look with the slats spaced open.

- 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.

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 Madison, the number moves with linear footage first, then the height you choose (4 to 6 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.
Want real numbers? Our vinyl fence cost guide breaks down what a vinyl fence runs per linear foot in the Midlands, and the all-materials fence cost guide compares it to the other fence types. Whatever your number, it is set in the contract before any post hole is dug.
Warranty and Who Installs It
Two warranties cover a Madison we install.
Catalyst backs its fence with a transferable limited lifetime warranty; the warranty document carries the terms.

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
Is the Madison as private as a vertical fence?add
Yes. The panel is gap-free the whole way up, the same coverage as the Newbury. The difference is the direction of the boards, not the privacy.
Which Madison colors ship fastest?add
White, Sand and Gray on the Standard tier, plus Cypress and Coastal Cedar on the Select tier. The TimberGrain blends are ordered, which moves the start date.
How tall does the Madison go?add
Six feet. If you need 7 or 8 feet in vinyl, the Newbury is the only style in the line that reaches it.
What is a horizontal vinyl fence?add
The Madison is the Newbury's look turned on its side: seamless horizontal panels that give full privacy with no visible seam between boards. The Madison 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 Madison come in?add
4 to 6 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 Madison 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.
