Premier Fence Company & Installation in Brookhaven, GA
Custom wood, chain link, vinyl, aluminum and steel fencing for homes and businesses across Brookhaven and DeKalb County, with free on-site estimates.
Trusted Brookhaven Fence Contractors for Homes & Businesses
FenceWorks of Georgia serves all of Brookhaven’s intown neighborhoods — from Ashford Park and Drew Valley to Lynwood Park, Brookhaven Village, and Historic Brookhaven. North DeKalb lots bring their own challenges: tight property lines, mature trees, grade changes, and red clay under all of it. Our local fence builders work with those conditions every week, building each fence on site to follow your yard and setting every post in solid concrete footings.
Every installation starts with a free on-site estimate and a clear, itemized quote, and is backed by our 10-year workmanship warranty. We use only high-quality materials — cedar and pressure-treated lumber, powder-coated aluminum and ornamental iron, UV-stabilized vinyl, coated chain link — and our team works with you to match the fence to your home and your lot.
Also installing in Brookhaven: wood privacy · aluminum & ornamental steel · chain link · vinyl · driveway gates · pool fences. Nearby, we also serve Chamblee and Dunwoody.
Custom Fencing Options Built for Brookhaven Properties
Brookhaven’s mix of 1950s ranches, new construction, and estate streets means no single fence suits every property. These are the materials we install most across North DeKalb — and what each one does best.
Wood Fence Installation & Privacy Fence Builders in Brookhaven
On Brookhaven’s closely spaced intown lots, a solid wood fence is the fastest way to turn a backyard into a private retreat. We build board-on-board and shadowbox privacy fences that fully block sightlines and take the edge off street and neighbor noise — custom-built on site to handle grade changes and mature trees, with posts set in solid concrete footings.
Premium Cedar and Pressure-Treated Wood Fences
Western red cedar naturally resists rot and insects, stays straighter, and looks richer — the premium pick for a fence you see every day. Pressure-treated pine is the budget-friendly workhorse, treated to stand up to Georgia’s intense humidity, rain, and termites. We install both, we will walk you through the trade-offs at your free estimate, and either way your fence carries our 10-year workmanship warranty.
Aluminum Fence Installation & Ornamental Iron Fencing
For the estate homes along Peachtree Road and the renovated streets off Dresden Drive, powder-coated aluminum and ornamental iron deliver an elegant, open boundary that will not rust and needs almost no upkeep. Because picket styles read as open rather than solid, they are a natural fit for street-facing yards — and for pool enclosures that have to meet barrier codes.
Low-Maintenance Vinyl Fencing Company Solutions
UV-stabilized vinyl keeps its bright, finished look without painting or staining — a natural fit for Brookhaven’s newer townhome and single-family developments. It is rot-proof, insect-proof, and easy to clean, making it the low-maintenance choice for homeowners who want a crisp privacy fence that looks new for years.
Commercial & Residential Chain Link Fence Contractors
Chain link remains the most economical way to secure a backyard, dog run, school, or commercial site. We install black vinyl-coated chain link that fades into the landscape and resists corrosion — the smarter residential look, especially since standard chain link generally is not allowed in street-facing yards on Brookhaven’s residential lots.
Custom Gates & Driveway Entries
Every fence we build can carry a matching walk or driveway gate — up to automated entries with keypads, remotes, and safety loops, fabricated to match your fence line. One crew builds both, so the lines, color, and hardware all match. Explore the full lineup on our gate installation hub.
Navigating City of Brookhaven Permits & Zoning Codes
The City of Brookhaven requires a permit for new fence installations, submitted through the Community Development Department with a site plan showing your property lines and the proposed fence. The city’s rules are specific: front-yard fences are limited to 4 feet (gates up to 6 feet), other yards allow up to 8 feet measured from finished grade, and any fence over 3 feet tall must include a column or decorative element at least every 8 linear feet so long runs do not read as blank walls. Along road frontage, mostly-open styles like picket and ornamental metal are the norm, and standard chain link is not allowed in street-facing yards on residential lots.
Rules change and can vary lot to lot, so always confirm current requirements with the city before you build — getting the permit and any HOA approval is the homeowner’s responsibility, and we build to your approved plan. The styles we install most in Brookhaven, like capped board-on-board with routed posts and ornamental aluminum between columns, fit these guidelines naturally; bring your questions to the free estimate and we will help you understand the options.
