Vinyl and Aluminum Fencing in Arcadia

Arcadia’s municipal code is specific down to the inch, so we build to the exact letter of it on every property we touch.

From privacy runs near the Historic District to modern aluminum gates on Highland Oaks foothill lots, we match the fence to your property and Arcadia’s code, with a clear quote and a warranty in writing.

Fencing for a Historic Foothill City

Arcadia was incorporated in 1903 and sits in the San Gabriel Valley, about 10 miles east of Los Angeles and bordering Pasadena. The city runs from the Historic District and Upper Rancho to Highland Oaks near the foothills, with Huntington Drive, Colorado Boulevard, Foothill Boulevard, Duarte Road, Fairview Avenue, Santa Anita Avenue, and Baldwin Avenue threading through it.

Santa Anita Park, Arcadia County Park, and the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden all sit close by. We install and custom-fabricate vinyl and aluminum fencing to fit whichever part of Arcadia you call home.

Building on Arcadia’s Foothill Grade

Arcadia sits at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, and lots near that edge of the city carry more grade than the flatter blocks toward Pasadena. Panels get racked to follow the slope rather than stepped down it, so a foothill fence line reads clean from the street, and posts get set deep enough to hold on rougher ground.

Custom heights run 2 to 8 feet either way, so a fence can match whatever the grade and the code allow. Corner properties add another wrinkle: the city’s Vehicular Visibility Standards limit what can block sightlines near an intersection, so placement matters as much as height, especially along busier corridors like Huntington Drive.

Warranty You Can Count On

Vinyl carries a transferable limited lifetime warranty and never yellows or needs paint, just a rinse twice a year. Aluminum carries 20 years on the material, 10 on the powder coating, and 2 on steel components. Both add a 5-year workmanship warranty on the install, backed by a company that has fabricated and installed both materials since 2018.

What Shapes Your Fencing Cost

Every quote comes down to your property, never a flat rate. What moves the number: total footage, the height you choose, vinyl or aluminum, how many gates you need, whether an old fence has to come out first, and how much foothill grade the crew has to work around.

No two Arcadia properties price the same way, since grade and access shift across the city. A ballpark over the phone is a fine start, but a firm number takes an on-site visit, free and with no pressure to book.

Services We Offer in Arcadia

For Arcadia properties we build full-privacy and semi-privacy vinyl, picket and two-tone runs, pool enclosures, and matching gates, plus modern aluminum privacy, semi-privacy, and picket styles for a cleaner foothill look. That is the working lineup on this side of the foothills.

Color on an Arcadia Yard

Arcadia frontages get seen up close, from the sidewalk and the driveway both. That is where a finish either agrees with the house or argues with it. Both materials have something to offer, in very different quantities.

The Vinyl Range

Older elevations tend to want the quieter end, and the standard solids live there without asking for attention. Wood grains such as Mesquite bring a sawn face. Textured blends read deeper again. Gates match, whatever you pick.

Aluminum Finishes

Ask for a custom finish and the answer is no. Privacy and picket styles hold a grain effect, plain white or plain black. Contoured slat: matte black. Powder coat, electrostatically applied and heat cured, will not fade on you.

  • Vic and David were absolutely amazing. These two guys came in and had a challenging layout to work with on a West Hollywood bungalow and powered through every landscape issues they came across.

    The final result was spectacular and made my bungalow look like an estate, forever grateful!

  • Great service and pricing. Many more custom options than other companies. For example we wanted the fence to be 7ft in one area and 8 Ft in another area. Since they manufacture their own fencing they do. All others we contacted just do 6 ft.

  • I got three estimates for my property and Pro Vinyl Fencing won my bid hands down. The price was fair and the crew was professional, courteous, friendly, and even offered to help with moving some items for me. The job was completed on time and the results were excellent.

    I am very happy with my new fence!

  • I had a great experience working with Mike and Jasmine at Pro Vinyl fence! They were very responsive, and quickly came out to give me a quote, which was way less than their competitors. They scheduled installation quickly and did a great job. I love my fence! Highly recommend.

Arcadia Fence Rules and Local Conditions

Arcadia’s Place in the San Gabriel Valley

Arcadia was incorporated on August 5, 1903, and sits in the San Gabriel Valley about 10 miles east of Los Angeles, bordering Pasadena.

The city covers ground from the Historic District and Upper Rancho to Highland Oaks near the foothills, with Huntington Drive, Colorado Boulevard, Foothill Boulevard, Duarte Road, Fairview Avenue, Santa Anita Avenue, and Baldwin Avenue running through it. Santa Anita Park and the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden anchor the area.

Foothill Terrain and Your Fence

Arcadia sits at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, so lots on the north side of the city often carry more grade than the flatter streets near Pasadena. A fence built for that ground gets racked to the slope rather than stepped down it, with posts set deep enough for stability on rougher terrain.

Arcadia’s Fence Height and Permit Rules

Under Arcadia Municipal Code Section 9103.05, front, side, and rear fences are allowed up to 6 feet. The code treats walls over 18 inches as structures, which brings in a permit requirement well below the height most homeowners expect.

Corner lots also fall under the city’s Vehicular Visibility Standards, which govern what can block sightlines near an intersection. Always verify specifics with the Arcadia Planning Division or Community Development Department before finalizing your plans.

Neighbors, Pools, and Shared Fences

When a fence sits on a shared property line, California’s Good Neighbor Fence Act presumes both owners split the cost equally, with 30 days’ written notice before work starts.

Pool fencing must clear 60 inches with no gaps a child could slip through and a gate that closes and latches itself; vinyl is an approved non-climbable material. If an HOA applies to your property, its rules can be stricter than the city’s, so check your CC&Rs too.

White Vinyl Privacy Fence, Arcadia

The rear of this Arcadia property had a weathered wood fence. In its place went a white vinyl privacy fence with a matching gate.

The new fence line follows the boundary between the lawn and the soil, keeping it set to the natural edge of the yard rather than a straight cut across it. That connection carries the boundary line from the lawn all the way to the house without a break.

David installed our fence today. He was very kind and did a really good job. We are very happy with his work and highly recommend this company.

How Your Arcadia Fence Project Runs

Step by Step

Building a fence in Arcadia breaks down into four clear stages: a free on-site estimate that checks the grade, a signed contract before any work starts, an installation built to code, and a warranty handed over at the finish.

You’ll see the real number before any work begins, with nothing added on after the contract is signed.

  1. Free On-Site Estimate

    Expect a ballpark over the phone first; the real number comes once we’ve walked your Arcadia lot and checked its grade.

  2. Clear Written Contract

    Scope, materials, height, and timeline are signed off in writing before the crew ever touches your yard.

  3. Quality Installation

    Our crew sets posts to the grade, hangs panels and gates true, clears the old fence, and cleans up after.

  4. Warranty and Aftercare

    You get vinyl’s lifetime warranty or aluminum’s 20/10/2 terms, backed by our 5-year workmanship guarantee too.

Arcadia FAQs

Fencing in Arcadia: Your Questions Answered

Most calls about Arcadia fencing circle back to the same handful of questions: the height limit under city code, when a wall counts as a permitted structure, what shapes the price, how foothill grade changes the plan, the corner-lot visibility rules, and where HOA rules fit in.

Still not sure? Ask us.

Call or message us, and a real person replies the same business day.

Under Arcadia Municipal Code Section 9103.05, front, side, and rear fences are allowed up to 6 feet. Go beyond that and you are into permit territory.

Always verify specifics with the Arcadia Planning Division or Community Development Department before finalizing your plans.

It can, well below 6 feet. Arcadia’s code treats walls over 18 inches as structures, which brings in a permit requirement much sooner than most homeowners expect, especially for a combined wall-and-fence design.

Verify your specific plan with the Arcadia Planning Division before you build.

Yes. Corner properties fall under Arcadia’s Vehicular Visibility Standards, which govern what can block sightlines near an intersection.

A fence, wall, or hedge that is too tall or too close to the corner can run afoul of these rules, so verify your layout with the Arcadia Planning Division first.

It depends on your property, not a price list. What moves the number: total footage, height, vinyl or aluminum, number of gates, whether an old fence needs removal, and how much foothill grade the crew works around.

A phone ballpark is a fine start; a firm number takes a free visit.

Often, yes. Lots near the base of the San Gabriel Mountains can carry more grade than the flatter streets toward Pasadena, so panels get racked to the slope and posts set deeper for stability.
