A fence you'll never have to paint

Aluminum won't rust, rot or need painting. Here's how we make sure it stays straight and sharp for decades.

  1. 1

    Posts set in concrete

    Every post is set in a concrete footing, [POST DEPTH] deep, so the fence stays straight.

  2. 2

    Powder-coated finish

    A baked-on powder-coat finish that won't rust and never needs paint.

  3. 3

    Rackable panels

    Panels follow sloped yards smoothly, with no stair-step gaps underneath for pets to slip through.

  4. 4

    Heavy-duty aluminum

    [ALUMINUM BRAND] heavy-duty aluminum, not thin big-box panels.

Lifetime manufacturer warranty on materials and finish, plus 3 years on labor. Gates: 1-year warranty.

Aluminum FAQ

Questions homeowners ask about aluminum

Will an aluminum fence keep my small dog in?

Our puppy picket style adds extra pickets along the bottom so most small dogs can't slip through, and rackable panels follow slopes without leaving gaps underneath. If you have a very small dog or a digger, your estimator will recommend the right setup.

Is it pool-code compliant in my town?

We build pool fences to meet your town's pool code, including height, picket spacing, self-closing and self-latching gates, and latches out of a child's reach. Codes vary by town, so we confirm yours and handle the permit and inspection.

Will aluminum rust or fade?

No rust: aluminum doesn't rust, and our powder-coated finish never needs paint. The materials and finish are backed by a lifetime manufacturer warranty.

What heights can I get, and do I need a permit?

We install aluminum at 4, 5 and 6 feet. Most Chicagoland towns require a permit. Send us your plat survey and we'll handle the permit and paperwork for you.
