We Hear You: Common Questions About Our Fencing Services
A fence’s cost varies depending on the materials used to build it and its size (height and length). In 2022, the average installation cost ranged between $10,000 to $14,000 for a whole-yard enclosure of roughly 200 linear feet in length. At that price range, fences closer to $10,000 were 4 feet tall and made out of chain link or open pickets, whereas fences closer to $14,000 were 6-foot-tall vinyl privacy fencing.

As the property owner, you are responsible for marking all private lines.

How to Get a Quality, Reliable Fence
Four Simple Steps to Get Your Dream Fence Installed
A to Z Quality Fencing’s custom fencing materials include cedar wood, vinyl/PVC, ornamental steel, ornamental aluminum, chain link, and horse fence. If you are not sure what type of fence will work best for you, our expert fence installers can help. 
As a custom design/build fence company we can professionally design and construct any fence style you can dream up! General fencing styles are private, semi-private (box-shadow), open picket with different picket spacing options, post and rail, pool, and yard & pet. The top fence edge options are many, including accents, scalloped edges – concave or convex, or straight with dog ear pickets or pointed country pickets. In addition, depending on the fence materials chosen, other options such as color, post cap style, and more are available! 
Our fence design tool maps the location of your fence on an aerial view of your residential or commercial property and gives us an idea of where the fence will go along property lines. In addition, the tool asks questions about your desired fence materials and fence style. The tool then generates an instant, online quote for your fence. This initial quote starts the conversation and process to make your fence a reality! 
We offer several financing options including a third-party lender, in-house financing, and a self-financed option using PayPal Credit.

Much like our fence pickets, our company takes care to only build with rails with minor defects. Taking the time to use premium fence materials helps ensure your family can enjoy the security and privacy of your new fence for years to come.
Our team is committed to going the extra mile in every detail of your fence project.
Customize your fence project by asking about our add-ons we offer: decorative post caps, trim, and custom railings.
We understand that your fence is only as strong as your posts. This is why we take great care to use the strongest posts, free of defects. We not only offer heavy-duty wood posts but our no-mess, no-dig installation adds a galvanized steel post inside the wooden post for an even stronger post.
All high-quality posts are built to ensure that your fence stands strong for years.
We build with only the best fence pickets. These are not the typical fence pickets anyone can buy from the local big-box stores. We have partnered with suppliers to provide the highest quality wood fencing materials.
The Modern Aluminum Fence top rails are routed into the posts creating an even stronger fence installation! The U channels are screwed to the frame and the entire fence is quickly assembled on-site using our no-mess, no-dig installation.
A to Z Quality Fencing’s proprietary Modern Aluminum Fence features one of the most modern, sleek designs on the market. These fences are long-lasting and bring the best of A to Z’s vinyl (including simulated wood finishes) and aluminum products together, allowing for custom fabrication of modern, industrial, privacy fencing.
Modern Aluminum Fence posts are composed of galvanized steel posts covered by our commercial-grade aluminum with its superior powder coat finish to create a stronger, longer-lasting fence that is more than weather-resistant – it will not rust with exposure to the elements!
Compared to wood, vinyl fencing is much stronger. Vinyl fencing is flexible and durable, which helps vinyl out-perform wood fencing in windy conditions and with environmental exposure to UV rays and weather.
Want to create a super durable fence that’s as unique as you? With a Modern Aluminum Fence, you can pair A to Z Quality Fencing’s commercial aluminum fence with the inlay that best fits your style. Our vinyl inlay is available in 9 colors including various simulated wood tones, so you can create the exact look you want.
Vinyl fencing can be cleaned easily with a regular garden hose. If you get a little mildew from moisture or shady conditions, you can use a mild dish soap and then spray off the fence with a garden hose. Vinyl fences are very easy to clean, making them a great option for low-maintenance fencing.
Vinyl fencing is available in a wide variety of configurations to match any property, home, or purpose. Iconic, white vinyl picket fences give a feel of classic Americana with that white-picket-fence-style. Darker vinyl fences can be installed to make a space look more elegant or modern. From short picket to tall privacy, vinyl fencing can be designed to enhance your backyard or business.
All our aluminum fence meets BOCA (Building Officials and Code Administrators) code. These strict standards ensure your fencing is sturdy, durable, and non-climbable, protecting your property no matter if you are fencing in a business, backyard, or swimming pool!
The BOCA health and safety codes are critical when installing fencing around a swimming pool because they prevent children from getting over, under, or through our aluminum fencing.
Vinyl fences are a bright, bold fence choice. Available in a variety of colors, vinyl fencing can be installed in a many configurations to help you enhance the beauty of your property. And, because vinyl isn’t as porous as wood, vinyl fences retain their color and finish much longer than wood fencing so you can enjoy your fence for years to come.
Our superior powder coating provides a smooth, durable finish, more resistant to chips, scratches, fading, rust, and corrosion than other finishes. This long-lasting, low-maintenance finish results from our application and curing processes that melt the powder particles to create a smooth, continuous, and permanent bond to the aluminum.
In addition, our paint finish meets AAMA (American Architectural Manufacturers Association) specifications.
You’re steps away from a one-of-a-kind aluminum fence made just for you! Our high-quality aluminum fencing comes from our sister company A to Z Fence Supplies. We assemble each aluminum fence to meet your unique design requirements, including color, finials, puppy panels, O-rings, and custom top edges.
A benefit of choosing our team to install your chain link fence is that we use only the most durable posts and hardware.
Chain-link fences are known for being the last fences standing during hurricanes, tornados, and other severe weather events.
The weakest point of any fence is where the post comes out of the ground. Our no-mess, no-dig installation process pounds a galvanized steel post into the soil. Then we slide an aluminum post over the galvanized steel posts. A steel post is stronger at ground level than an aluminum post.
Our high-quality aluminum fence, combined with our no-mess, no-dig installation process, creates a highly durable aluminum fence.
We pride ourselves on going the extra mile to ensure your investment is built to last.
Adding a top rail to your chain link fence project creates an extra level of durability and security.
Our chain link mesh offers a high level of security for residential, commercial, and industrial properties.
Manufactured with you in mind to provide you with security and beauty at the same time.
Our team prides themselves on putting in the little details that make your fence unique to you. Ask your representative about adding premium finishing caps to your Chain Link fence project.
