Fences We Build: Cedar, Wrought Iron, Chain Link and Driveway Gates
Dallas Fence builds residential fencing and commercial fencing across North Texas. Our crews work out of North Dallas and cover Dallas County, Collin County and Denton County. These are the fences we build:
Ornamental Iron Fences
Steel fence panels that come pre-galvanized and powder-coated, set on square steel posts. Clean, open and low-maintenance, and our usual pick for pool fencing.
Wrought Iron Fencing
We fabricate wrought iron: hand-welded to fit the property and painted on site, with finials and decorative rings. Heavy and sturdy, which is why it is mostly used for security fencing.
Automatic Driveway Gates
Swing and slide driveway gates with operators, keypads and remotes, matched to the fence, plus repairs on gates that stick or sag.
Chain Link and Commercial Fencing
Galvanized or black vinyl-coated chain link for homes, schools and job sites, with top rail and gates. We coordinate with general contractors on commercial schedules.
Residential Fence Contractor in Dallas
Most of our work is for homeowners: backyard privacy, pool barriers, front-yard curb appeal and gates that close right. Start with what the fence has to do, and we'll point you to the right build.
- Privacy and screening Board-on-board cedar, side-by-side cedar or Trex composite, up to 8 ft where the rules allow.
- Open views and curb appeal Ornamental iron or wrought iron that marks the line without blocking the view.
- A pool Barrier height, gate hardware and permits come first; then the material.
- Driveway access Swing or slide gates with an operator, keypad or remote.
- Pets and kids in the yard Chain link or a solid wood fence with gates that latch every time.
- Fixing what you have Leaning posts, broken boards and sagging gates, before you replace anything.
Custom Fences: Board-on-Board, Horizontal Cedar and Ornamental Metal
Not every yard fits a standard panel. We build custom fences around the lot and the house, and put the spec in the written estimate.
- Wood details
- board-on-board, cap and trim, horizontal cedar and picket styles on wood fences, with heights up to 8 ft where the rules allow.
- Ornamental metal
- spear tops, flat tops and finials on wrought iron and steel.
- Gates
- walk gates and double drive gates matched to the fence, or automatic gates with operators.
- Finish
- stain colors chosen with your HOA rules in mind, and Trex composite where you want low maintenance.
Building over 6 ft, or in a front yard? That takes a permit in Dallas, and we pull it. The limits are in our Dallas fence permit guide.

Fence Contractor in North Dallas
Our office is on the Dallas North Tollway corridor at 17480 Dallas Pkwy #111, Dallas 75287. Far North Dallas, roughly LBJ Freeway (I-635) north to the President George Bush Turnpike, is the area closest to us, including subdivisions such as Bent Tree, Prestonwood and Preston Trail and ZIP codes 75240, 75243, 75248, 75252, 75254 and 75287.
The neighborhood sits inside the City of Dallas but crosses into Collin and Denton counties, so your plat may be recorded outside Dallas County while City of Dallas fence rules still apply. Many subdivisions here also have deed restrictions or an HOA that can be stricter than the city on height, material and stain color. Send us those restrictions and we design to them.
- Back yards
- Board-on-board cedar on galvanized steel posts. A 6 ft fence needs no City permit for height; above 6 ft does.
- Front and street sides
- Ornamental iron, held to 4 ft in a required front yard.
- Alley-entry lots
- Keep the 20 ft visibility triangle clear where the alley meets the street.
- Permits
- City of Dallas, through DallasNow. Heights, triangles and easements are in our Dallas fence permit guide.

Fence Questions: Cost, Permits, Timing and Hiring
Building in the City of Dallas? We pull the permit. Our Dallas fence permit guide has the heights and when one is required.
01 How much does a fence cost in Dallas?
Wood fences run $30 to $80 per linear foot installed, iron and steel $20 to $90, chain link $15 to $70 and Trex composite $60 to $180. Height, material, style and add-ons set where you land. Gates, old-fence removal, slope, access and permits are priced in the written estimate after we measure.
02 What does a free fence estimate include?
Linear footage, height, material and style, the post system, gates, removal and haul-off of the old fence, site access, grade, and any permit or HOA requirement. It is free, done on site and put in writing, so the scope you approve is the scope that gets built.
03 How soon can you start, and how long does a fence take?
Most installs start within days of the approved estimate, and most jobs take 1 to 5 days to install, depending on size. When a permit or HOA approval is needed, that comes first. Commercial and automatic-gate projects can take longer; your estimate includes the schedule.
04 Does a fence need a permit in Dallas, and who pulls it?
In the City of Dallas a permit is required when the fence is taller than 4 feet in a front yard or taller than 6 feet anywhere else on the lot; suburbs set their own rules. We are registered as a fence contractor with every city we serve and pull the permit for you.
05 Can you replace my old fence and add a gate in one job?
Yes. Tear-out, haul-off, the new fence and any new walk or drive gates go into one written scope and one schedule. If only the gate is the problem, we can build a new gate for the existing fence instead.
06 Does Dallas Fence warranty its work?
Yes. Qualifying residential installations carry our written 5-year workmanship warranty. Material warranties come from the manufacturer and are listed in the written project documents.
07 How do I find a good fence company near me in Dallas?
Pick one that measures on site, puts the material, height, posts, gates and removal in a written estimate, pulls the permit, and can show real local jobs. Dallas Fence works from North Dallas, our professionals bring 10+ years of fence experience, and we have 200+ projects completed across Dallas–Fort Worth, with specs and photos on our project pages.
08 What should I ask a fence contractor before hiring?
Ask what posts they use, who pulls the permit, whether removal of the old fence is included, how gates are framed so they do not sag, what the written warranty covers, and to see photos of their own work. Our answers: steel posts on every wood fence, we pull the permit, and removal is itemized in the estimate.
09 Who is Dallas Fence and where do you work?
Dallas Fence is a residential and commercial fence contractor based at 17480 Dallas Pkwy #111, Dallas, TX 75287. We work across Dallas, Collin and Denton counties from our North Dallas office.
10 Do you work with HOAs and general contractors?
Yes. Send us your HOA or deed restrictions and we design the fence to them and prepare what the HOA asks for. On commercial jobs we coordinate with the general contractor and the owner; we installed over 1,000 feet of 6 ft chain link at a Dallas school in under a week that way.
