Front Yard Fence Ideas

Starting at the front of your Jacksonville home, your front yard is the first area you and your guests will see. The front of your home establishes all first impressions of your property. Choosing the right front yard fence can increase aesthetics and add purpose and style to your property. However, keep in mind in most cities and jurisdictions, there are guidelines that homeowners must follow when installing front yard fences. In Jacksonville, The Zoning Code “allows you to build a fence on your property line or any other place on your property depending on your zoning district. This does not assume that the sidewalk or curb is where your property line starts. To accurately determine where your property line is, the land needs to be surveyed. The maximum height of a fence is 4 feet within the front yard setback. Beyond that point, towards the rear of your property, the height of the fence can be up to 8 feet. If you wish to vary any of these height requirements, you must apply for an administrative deviation. There is an exception for lots on a corner. A visibility triangle for traffic safety purposes must be maintained.”

When exploring front yard fence ideas. Superior Fence & Rail recommends defining the purpose of your fence. During our consultation, a talented team member will ask you how you plan to utilize your fence. For example, do you intend to use the fence for decorative purposes only? Are you fencing in your front yard to contain a beloved pet? Will your fence serve as an added security measure for your property? Remember that your new fence must abide by your specific locations’ zoning codes and regulations regarding front yard fences. Rest assured, our team is here to help you every step of the way.
