Gilroy’s wide residential lots and summer heat near 90 degrees call for a fence that holds its color and its line without warping or fading.
Since 2018, we’ve installed and custom-fabricated both materials across Santa Clara County, backed by real warranty coverage on every job.


Gilroy homeowners run everything from tight in-town lots near Old Gilroy to wide parcels out toward Christmas Hill Park.
Gilroy’s setback rules shift with how close a fence sits to the curb and whether the lot backs onto an alley, and summer heat plays into material choice too. Browse the styles below, or call to describe your yard for a free estimate.
Summers in Gilroy average around 87 degrees, and vinyl handles that heat without the upkeep wood needs in the same conditions. The color runs all the way through the PVC itself rather than sitting on the surface, so a summer’s worth of sun exposure will not fade or yellow the panel, and a scrape from a mower never flashes white underneath.
Posts are set to a footing depth suited to the lot, and racked to follow a sloped yard so the top line stays level even when the ground underneath is not. A rinse twice a year is the entire maintenance routine, no repainting and no re-staining as the seasons turn, year after year.
Our aluminum line runs privacy, semi-privacy, and picket profiles finished in black, white, or a wood-grain tone, each rated ASTM E84 Class A for flame and smoke. Gilroy sits inland, away from coastal salt air, which is favorable ground for aluminum’s coating to hold up over the long run.
The 20-year material warranty and 10-year coating warranty carry our own 5-year workmanship on top, and the coating still benefits from a documented cleaning every 6 months to keep the finish looking new season after season.

Every style ships with its own matching gate, sized anywhere from a single walk-through opening to a wide driveway span built to carry its own weight for years to come. Wall toppers extend an existing block or concrete wall with added height and screening, no demolition needed.
Heights run from 2 to 8 ft and rack to follow a sloped yard, useful on the larger parcels toward the edges of town where the grade shifts more than it does near Old Gilroy.
A handful of things move the number: total footage, height, the material picked, how many gates are needed, how far the fence sits from the curb, and whether the old fence has to come out first before the new line goes in. Corner lots with curb-setback requirements sometimes add planning time too. A real figure comes from seeing the yard in person, so the estimate stays free, on-site, and typically gets a reply that same day.
Around Gilroy we build full privacy panels, semi-privacy runs, picket styles for an open front yard, ranch-style rail fencing on the larger parcels, pool-code enclosures, and matching gates cut to any driveway or side gap width.
An in-town side yard puts a color right under your nose. The same panels on a wider parcel read at a distance, where tone counts for more than texture. Whichever material you settle on hands you its own list.
Long runs are unforgiving, so think about how a family reads over length. The four plain colors give one even sweep. Six smooth grains put board figure across it. Four textured blends, Arctic Blend among them, add real relief.
Pro Vinyl and Aluminum Fencing partners with Catalyst, one of the leading vinyl fence manufacturers in the United States. Their US-made vinyl, our custom fabrication and installation, backed by a transferable limited lifetime material warranty.
The finish list stops at four. Slat and flat profiles take a wood grain, black or white; contoured slats take matte black and only that. Every one is powder coat, charged onto the metal, then driven in by heat.

A tight in-town lot and an open parcel ask for different numbers, and the table only tells you what each style can do. The rest is the yard itself, what the fence is there to stop, and the local height rule for that line.

| Vinyl privacy | 4 ft | 8 ft |
| Vinyl privacy w/Accent top | 5 ft | 8 ft |
| Vinyl picket | 3.5 ft | 6 ft |

| Aluminum privacy | 4 ft | 12 ft |
| Aluminum semi-privacy | 4 ft | 12 ft |

Gilroy incorporated back in 1870 and sits about 36 miles south of San José in Santa Clara County, at the southern edge of the Bay Area. Just under 60,000 people live here, with Morgan Hill, San Martin, and Saratoga as neighboring communities. U.S. Route 101 and State Route 152 both run through town, alongside Monterey Road, Leavesley Road, and El Camino Real, and the historic Old Gilroy district anchors the older part of the city.
Gilroy Gardens amusement park and Christmas Hill Park, with its playground, bike trails, and sports fields, sit on the recreation side of a city that still carries a working agricultural identity alongside its newer subdivisions. Lot sizes vary accordingly: tighter parcels near Old Gilroy, wider ones out toward the parks and the edges of town.
Gilroy runs a warm Mediterranean climate, with summer afternoons averaging around 87 degrees and winter lows near 37, plus coastal fog that rolls in on summer evenings. There is no meaningful tornado or severe windstorm risk here, but sustained summer heat still tests any material that is not built to hold its color and shape season after season.
Gilroy’s fence rules sit in City Code Article XXXIV, Section 30.34.30. Front yards allow up to 3 ft without a setback; taller than that requires sitting back at least 26 ft from the curb. Side and rear yards reach 7 ft, or up to 8 ft along the main building’s setback line with 6 ft kept clear from the side lot line.
Corner lots carry their own setback rules from the curb, and fences next to alleys can run up to 7 ft too. Exact figures depend on the lot, so confirm the details with the City of Gilroy Planning Division before building.

Gilroy’s fence code, Article XXXIV Section 30.34.30, does not state a specific building-permit height trigger for standard fences, though front, side, rear, and corner-lot setback rules all apply.
Verify permit requirements with the City of Gilroy Planning Division before building.
Corner lots carry their own setback rules: a fence over 3 ft must sit back 16 ft from the curb on the street-side yard, or 10 ft along an alley driveway.
Elsewhere on the lot, fences can reach 7 ft, or 8 ft along the main building’s setback line. Verify with the City of Gilroy Planning Division.
Gilroy summers average around 87 degrees.
Vinyl’s color is blended into the PVC itself, not applied as a surface coating, so a full season of sun does not fade or yellow the panel, and aluminum’s finish holds up well too, since Gilroy sits inland away from coastal salt air.
A Gilroy front-yard fence can reach 3 ft without a setback. Anything taller needs to sit back at least 26 ft from the face of the curb. Side and rear yards allow up to 7 ft without that setback requirement.
Often, yes. Some Gilroy properties sit under an HOA requiring approval before fence work starts, and CC&R limits can be stricter than the city’s own curb-setback rule on color or material.
Ten-plus vinyl colors and three aluminum finishes usually leave a workable option regardless.
All of them, from the historic Old Gilroy district to the wider parcels near Christmas Hill Park and Gilroy Gardens, plus neighboring Morgan Hill and San Martin.
