Fence Installation for DeKalb County Homes and Properties

First Fence of Georgia offers a wide range of residential installation services for DeKalb's vast property mix. There's privacy fencing for tight in-town lots, decorative metal and picket fencing for curb appeal, and pool enclosures for water safety.

Along with residential services, we offer commercial fencing for perimeter security and enclosures.

DeKalb County Fence Regulations and Ordinance, What to Know Before You Build

First Fence of Georgia will help you install the perfect fence that meets the DeKalb County fence regulations, including:

  • Front-yard and corner-lot street-side fences are limited to 4 feet.
  • Most side and rear yards allow taller fences up to 8 feet.
  • Fences cannot go in the public right-of-way.
  • Fences taller than 8 feet or other special cases may require a permit or variance.

These figures apply to unincorporated DeKalb County, but cities like Decatur set their own ordinances, and historic districts and HOAs can add their own rules.

Reach out to DeKalb County Planning & Sustainability or your own city for current regulations. First Fence of Georgia helps homeowners work through these regulations before the installation process starts. Reach out to the First Fence of Georgia team for more information on DeKalb County fence ordinances.

I don't leave many reviews but my husband and I really are so happy with our purchase. We had maybe 4 or 5 fence companies come out and give us an estimate, and First Fence was the lowest estimate. Didn't know how the fence would turn out at the lowest estate price, but as it turned out, no one could have done a better job. I fully recommend First Fence!
