WHAT TO EXPECT
Fencing Older Homes and Side Lots in Highland Park
Highland Park's housing ranges from large brick homes built in the 1910s and 1920s to two-family flats and smaller frame houses, with many blocks where a neighboring lot now sits empty. A lot of our work here is securing a side lot you have bought or maintain, replacing a rusted iron or chain link fence, or closing off an alley. Old fence lines often have buried concrete, steel posts and debris, so we price removal honestly up front.
For businesses along Woodward and the industrial blocks, commercial chain link with lockable gates is the usual answer, sometimes with a cantilever slide gate. Every post goes 42 inches deep in concrete. Fence rules come from the city building department; most Metro Detroit cities limit front-yard fences to about 3-4 feet, and we confirm your lot's rules before quoting.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Highland Park Fence Questions
What property owners in Highland Park ask most.
Can you fence a side lot next to my house?
Yes, if you own it or have the owner's permission. We confirm the lot lines from the survey or county records before quoting and file the permit for the new fence.
Do you install commercial fencing in Highland Park?
Yes. We build commercial chain link perimeters, dumpster enclosures and slide gates for businesses along Woodward and the industrial blocks.
Can you remove an old iron or chain link fence?
Yes. We pull the old fence and its concrete footings and haul everything away. Removal is listed as its own line on the quote.
Do I need a permit in Highland Park?
Generally yes, from the city building department. We prepare the drawing and handle the application.
What is the most secure residential fence?
A 6-foot chain link or ornamental aluminum fence with locking gates is hard to climb and does not block sightlines for neighbors watching the street. For full privacy, vinyl is the toughest.
