Located right on Florida’s southeastern coast, this sunny beach town is home to approximately 9,000 people. Strong winds have caused considerable damage to resident’s fences in the past. With Superior Fence & Rail on your side, you may be able to prevent hurricane fence damage and save money on costly fence repairs.

A Long History of Hurricane Fence Damage in Palm Beach

Palm Beach County frequently encounters hurricanes. Being right on the coast of Florida makes it a high-risk area for severe weather occurrences. Incredibly strong storms, cyclones, and hurricanes from the Atlantic Ocean or Gulf of Mexico will likely push up into the southern part of Florida.

In 2023, an article from the Palm Beach Post cited data from the National Center for Disaster Preparedness (NCDP), which ranked Palm Beach County as one of the country’s most hurricane-vulnerable areas. Palm Beach was also in the top five list of the counties most financially affected by hurricanes. With hurricanes’ probability of hitting Palm Beach every 2-3 years, it can be a struggle to maintain a sound fence in Palm Beach.

One of the most destructive hurricanes to ever hit Palm Beach was Hurricane Okeechobee in 1928. It had winds of up to 145 miles per hour and caused water surges of up to 20 feet. More than 2,500 people tragically lost their lives during the storm. With today’s technology, predicting and preparing for powerful hurricanes like these is much easier. No matter what, you’ll still want a heavy-duty fence that can withstand inclement weather and strong winds.

Palm Beach Hurricane Fence Options

With over 350 fence options to choose from, we offer many fencing types that are more likely to sustain high winds, such as those incurred during a tropical storm or hurricane. Here at Superior Fence & Rail of Palm Beach, we install several types of fences that help reduce the probability of damage caused by these winds.

Vinyl Fences–To help prevent damage, you need a fence that can “weather the storm.” Superior Fence and Rail offers both picket-style vinyl fences and vinyl privacy fences. Our picket-style vinyl fences allow wind to flow, providing air circulation and reducing the probability of uplift during high windy conditions.

Aluminum Fences– Aluminum fences are sturdy yet lightweight, making them a great choice for homes or businesses that may experience storm conditions. Superior sells aluminum fencing in various colors, grades, and styles. Your aluminum fence can also be equipped with SolarShield technology to minimize fading and chalking from the sun.

Chain Link Fences– Superior Fence & Rail is your chain link fence company of choice. Chain link fence is made of woven steel wire that forms a diamond pattern and is then either galvanized in zinc or coated in vinyl. This type of fence is highly recommended as an ultra-strong fence that can withstand high winds, storms, and hurricane conditions. This is because wind easily passes through a chain-link fence due to its design. Because it isn’t solid, the wind creates no resistance — moving through the fence. Making it a sturdy fence in the face of a hurricane. Chain link fencing works in both residential and commercial settings.

Considerations For Hurricane-Resistant Fencing
