How to Select a Fence Height

While you may be focused on the material of your new fence, the height should also play an important part of your decision-making process. Three key things to consider regarding fence height: what type of material you are choosing, why you are installing a new fence and the regulations in your town or city or the Home Owners Association rules and regulations. 

Style Matters in Look and Feel

While you may want a fence installed for a purpose, you cannot overlook how a new fence will impact your home’s curb appeal and vibe. The height of your new fence will also be based on the style and look that you are going for or that complements your current exterior. If you have a modern home, a short white picket fence will not work. And a dark and tall wood fence may inhibit your home’s curb appeal no matter what the style.

The Why is Another Question

If you are attempting to add more privacy and noise reduction to your backyard space, then you will want to install a taller fence for as much privacy as possible. On the other hand if you are putting a new fence around your inground pool, you may want to be able to see outside while having a proper height to keep your pool protected from unwanted visitors and also keep kids safe. A shorter fence may be best around your garden, so you can enjoy the view while keeping out critters who may eat your bounty.

We are proud to have had our hands on thousands and thousands of fences that have been installed for a mix of reasons. We have the experience to work with you on the best fence height.

Follow Rules and Property Boundaries

A key factor to fence height that is out of your control are any neighborhood or county ordinances that vary depending on where you live. You will need to work within these rules as well as any considerations as related to your neighbors if you are on your property line. A frank conversation is necessary with your neighbor before you install a new fence and how high it is.
