Fence Companies Detroit installs fences across Farmington Hills, a spacious Oakland County suburb with wooded lots and Heritage Park. You get a local crew, honest up-front pricing, and a fence built for Michigan: posts set below the 42-inch frost line in concrete, so it stands straight through every freeze-thaw winter instead of leaning by spring.
Real security, built legally
Security fencing is in constant demand across Detroit, for homes, side lots, businesses and vacant property. City rules restrict barbed and razor wire near residential property, so real security comes from height, heavy-gauge materials, anti-climb design and locking gates. We build all of it, to code.
Every fence we build is set for Michigan. The frost line here runs about 42 inches deep, so we set posts below it in proper concrete footings. Posts set shallower get gripped by the freeze-thaw cycle in our clay-heavy soil and jacked out of plumb a little more every winter, which is why so many older fences lean. Ours do not.
Security options we install
- Heavy-gauge chain link at 6 to 8 feet for lots and yards.
- Welded-wire and steel panel systems - strong, clean-looking anti-climb fencing.
- Ornamental steel with spear tops - security that still looks like an upgrade.
- Locking and rolling gates - controlled access for driveways and yards.
Security levels, from deterrence to control
Level one is deterrence: 6-foot heavy-gauge chain link with a locked gate stops opportunists and marks the property line unmistakably, the standard for side lots and vacant property. Level two is anti-climb: 7-to-8-foot welded-wire panels or flat-top ornamental steel with tight pale spacing that offers no handholds, the pick for business yards and equipment storage. Level three is access control: rolling or cantilever gates, controlled entries and layouts that channel everything past one point.
What we do not build is illegal wire. Detroit restricts barbed wire next to residential property and bans razor wire in residential and business districts, so real security here comes from height, gauge and design, and that is exactly what we engineer.

Common questions
Can I put barbed wire on my fence in Detroit?
Not next to homes. Detroit prohibits barbed wire on property lines adjacent to residential dwellings and bans razor wire in residential and business districts. We build security legally with height, gauge and anti-climb design instead.
What do you recommend for a vacant lot or side lot?
Heavy-gauge chain link at 6 feet is the workhorse: affordable, durable and effective. For businesses that want a better look, welded-wire panel systems and ornamental steel are the step up.
