Fence types & materials

Every fence FenceFox fabricates and installs across Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade and the surrounding counties — with the heights, materials, warranty and Florida-specific notes you need before you buy.

Wood Privacy & Picket Fencing

Pressure-treated Southern yellow pine remains the most affordable way to add full privacy and a warm, traditional look to a Florida yard. We build privacy, board-on-board, shadowbox, horizontal, picket and split-rail styles. Wood fence installation details →

Florida note: Wood needs more care than vinyl or aluminum in Florida’s humidity — plan on sealing or staining once the new lumber has dried out, and keep sprinklers off the boards.

Heights: Built to whatever height fits your property — typically 4′–8′
Materials / styles: Board-on-board, shadow box, picket, split rail
Best for: Backyard privacy, traditional curb appeal, budget-conscious projects

Warranty: 1-year workmanship warranty on installation. Manufacturer warranties vary by product — your written proposal lists the exact coverage.

PVC & Vinyl Fencing

Vinyl won't rot, warp, rust, or attract termites, which is why it's the most requested residential material in South Florida. We install privacy, semi-privacy and picket styles in white, tan / almond and woodgrain finishes, with matching gates. Vinyl fence installation details →

Florida note: Vinyl is widely used in HOA communities; many associations specify the color and style, so we check your HOA’s rules before quoting.

Heights: Built to whatever height fits your property — typically 4′–8′
Materials / styles: White, tan, almond, woodgrain finishes
Best for: Low-maintenance privacy, pool enclosures, HOA communities

Warranty: 1-year workmanship warranty on installation. Manufacturer warranties vary by product — your written proposal lists the exact coverage.

Aluminum & Ornamental Fencing

Powder-coated aluminum gives you the look of wrought iron — thin pickets, decorative finials, an open sightline — without the rust that eventually finds real iron in salt air. We install picket, ornamental, estate, pool-code and commercial-grade styles in black, bronze and white. Aluminum fence installation details →

Florida note: Pool-code styles are installed with self-closing, self-latching gates to meet Florida’s pool barrier requirements.

Heights: Sized to your property, typically 3′–6′
Materials / styles: Black, bronze, and white powder-coat finishes
Best for: Pool barriers, front yards, HOA & estate entrances

Warranty: 1-year workmanship warranty on installation. Manufacturer warranties vary by product — your written proposal lists the exact coverage.

Wrought Iron and Custom Steel Fencing example

Wrought Iron & Custom Steel Fencing

For a heavier, fully custom look, we provide custom-fabricated wrought iron and steel fencing: scrollwork, spear-top pickets, custom panel widths, and matching walk and drive gates. It's the material of choice for estate entries, historic properties, and high-security applications where aluminum's lighter gauge won't do.

Florida note: Steel and iron need more coating maintenance than aluminum in a coastal climate; custom work is priced after we see the property and the design.

Heights: Fully custom, any height
Materials / styles: Spear-top, scrollwork, flat-top, custom designs
Best for: Estate entries, historic homes, high-security perimeters

Warranty: 1-year workmanship warranty on installation. Manufacturer warranties vary by product — your written proposal lists the exact coverage.

Chain Link Fencing

Galvanized and vinyl-coated chain link remains the most economical way to secure a yard, dog run, job site, or commercial lot. We install galvanized and black or green vinyl-coated chain link in residential and heavier commercial gauges, with privacy slats where allowed. Chain link installation details →

Florida note: Vinyl-coated chain link (black or green) blends into landscaping and is required in front yards by some city codes.

Heights: Any height from residential to industrial
Materials / styles: Galvanized or vinyl-coated wire, privacy slats optional
Best for: Yards, dog runs, job sites, industrial & commercial security

Warranty: 1-year workmanship warranty on installation. Manufacturer warranties vary by product — your written proposal lists the exact coverage.

Farm & Ranch Fencing

Out toward Okeechobee, Glades, Hendry, and western Palm Beach and Martin counties, we build wood rail, three- and four-rail no-climb horse fence, field fence, and welded wire fencing by the acre, not just the yard. Crews are equipped for long, straight runs across pasture and agricultural land, including corner and gate bracing sized for livestock pressure.

Florida note: No-climb woven wire paired with a top rail is our most-requested combination for equestrian properties, since it protects hooves and legs better than plain wire.

Heights: 3-rail, 4-rail or fully custom layouts
Materials / styles: Wood rail, no-climb wire, field fence, welded wire
Best for: Horse & cattle pasture, large acreage, agricultural boundaries

Warranty: 1-year workmanship warranty on installation. Manufacturer warranties vary by product — your written proposal lists the exact coverage.

Florida note: Closing on a home sale? Text us your deadline — we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s realistic.

Heights: 4' minimum, per Florida statute
Materials / styles: Removable mesh, aluminum picket

Commercial crews are scheduled around your operating hours to avoid disrupting business.

Specialty: Kennels, Sport Courts & Temporary Fencing
