Front Yard Fences

Front yard fences in picket, aluminum, wrought iron and wood designs that add curb appeal, define the yard and keep pets and children safe near the street.

A front yard fence is part of the face of your home. It defines the yard, frames the garden, adds charm and keeps dogs and children away from the street. Because front fences are seen from the road, style and scale matter, and local rules are often tighter. Homeowners in Nashville choose picket, aluminum, wrought iron and low wood fences to match the character of their houses.

We start with a Free Estimate and walk the front of the property, noting the house style, sidewalks, utilities and sight lines at the driveway. We talk through height, openness and materials that suit the neighborhood, and we plan gates at the walk and drive. Because front fences often face review, we help you gather photos, drawings and measurements that can be shared with an HOA or city office. Front yard fences are seen by everyone who walks or drives by, so proportions matter. Height, picket spacing, post caps and gate style should fit the home, and the color should work with the siding and trim. We can show examples from similar homes and help you gather the photos and drawings that an approval board may ask to see.

Match the home

Craftsman, cottage, ranch and colonial homes each suit different fence styles, and we show examples.

Open and low

Front yard fences are often lower and more open than backyard fences, with pickets or rails that show the house.

Safe sight lines

Fences near driveways and corners should keep sight lines clear, and we plan with that in mind.

Review made easier

Drawings, photos and measurements help when an HOA or city asks to see the plan.
