Permits

What the Deerfield Beach fence permit needs

  • A building application listing the lot, block, subdivision and job value
  • A survey showing where the fence and gates go, the fence height and the gate widths
  • Wood fences: built to the Florida Building Code’s prescriptive wood-fence method, with the finished side out and posts on the inside
  • Aluminum, vinyl (PVC) and decorative metal: two copies of current product approvals or signed and sealed engineer shop drawings, with components, connections and anchoring highlighted
  • Chain link: built to the Florida Building Code’s chain link fence table

Pool barriers must be at least 48 inches high, with self-closing, self-latching gates that open away from the pool and latches at least 54 inches above grade — see pool fences.
