Downey homes and businesses get vinyl and aluminum fences and gates, installed and custom-built to whatever height the lot allows.
Downey’s rivals cover one material or neither cleanly. We build and warranty both, custom-fabricated to whatever height your yard and Downey’s own rules allow, plus a fast, free, no-pressure estimate.
Downey homeowners choose between two materials here, vinyl and aluminum, both installed and custom-fabricated in-house. Downey’s 42-inch front-yard cap keeps most street fences low and visible, so the material and style you pick actually shows.
Both are modern and low-maintenance, with no painting and no seasonal upkeep beyond an occasional wash. Downey’s other fence companies rarely do both vinyl and aluminum with real depth. We build and stand behind both.
Vinyl is our budget-friendly line for Downey yards: full-privacy, semi-privacy, and picket styles, in colors that never need paint. We fabricate custom heights from 2 to 8 feet, so an odd side yard or a small repair job gets the same care as a full rebuild. Panels are rigid PVC that won’t rot, peel, or draw termites the way an aging wood fence does. A hidden metal insert reinforces the rail on taller runs.

For a cleaner, more contemporary look, aluminum is the premium pick: panels that keep their finish for years without rust or repainting. Styles run from open picket to full-privacy infill, in a flat, contemporary profile rather than a classic wrought-iron look. We custom-fabricate from 2 to 12 feet, 6 feet the usual pick, with welded gates ready for an automated opener later. It costs more than vinyl, for the look it gives.
There is no flat number for a Downey fence job; the price follows your specific project. What moves it: material, the run’s height and length, gate count, site access, and whether an old fence has to come out. A taller fence, even one under Downey’s own limits, tends to use more material and labor, so height is a real cost driver. We don’t publish a price list; you get a phone ballpark, then a firm number after a free visit.
Every vinyl fence carries a transferable limited lifetime warranty, plus our own 5-year workmanship warranty. Aluminum is backed 20 years on the material, 10 years on the coating, and 2 years on steel, with that same 5-year workmanship warranty layered on top. The proof is public: in business since 2018, with 500+ five-star reviews, 2,000+ completed projects, and 100,000+ feet installed across Greater LA.
Across Downey we build the full vinyl and aluminum lineup, from privacy and picket panels to gates, pool fencing and wall toppers, each one sized and fitted to the yard it goes into.
Homes and storefronts want different things from a boundary, and both materials are on the table here. One list runs long, the other is short, and knowing which one you are working in saves time.
A vinyl panel is not coated, so a scratch in year six shows the same tone underneath. Four plain solids anchor the range, six wood grain tones sit in the middle, and four textured blends finish it.
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.
Powder goes on as a dry charge and cures under heat, so color bonds to the metal instead of resting on top. Range is the trade: white, black and a grain look on the panel and picket runs, matte black for a contoured slat.
Pro Vinyl and Aluminum Fencing is a trained and authorized SLEEKFENCE™ contractor. SLEEKFENCE™ is a premium-class aluminum fencing brand registered in the USA – their engineered material, our custom fabrication and welded install, with a 20-year material warranty behind it.
Two limits apply at once: what the style can be built to, and what the lot is allowed to carry. The lower one wins. It is rarely the same number out front as it is along the back boundary of a property.

Downey sits in Los Angeles County’s Gateway Cities region, about 13 miles southeast of Downtown LA, on flat coastal-plain ground. Founded in 1873 and incorporated in 1956, it’s home to 114,355 residents across 12.8 square miles, in neighborhoods running from Downtown Downey and the Civic Center to North Downey, South Downey, and Orange Estates.
Its biggest claim to fame is aerospace: North American Aviation built the Apollo Command and Service Modules, a legacy the Columbia Memorial Space Center keeps alive, alongside the world’s oldest surviving McDonald’s. Flat terrain leaves front yards visible, so the 42-in front cap matters.
A Downey fence tops out at 42 inches in the front or street-side yard, measured from the curb, with a tighter 30-inch limit inside corner-lot sight triangles. Side and rear yards allow up to 7 feet, measured from the higher adjoining grade. We custom-fabricate vinyl from 2 to 8 feet and aluminum from 2 to 12 feet, to the exact height your lot allows.
Downey’s permit trigger is lower than most neighbors: any fence over 42 inches needs a Building Division permit plus Planning and Engineering approval, and a fence at or under 42 inches still needs Planning approval.
Chain-link is banned in front and street-side yards citywide, and barbed and razor wire are banned in residential zones. Limits vary by zone under the Downey Municipal Code; verify current rules with the City of Downey Planning / Building & Safety Division.
California’s Good Neighbor Fence Act treats a boundary fence as a shared cost: both owners split it evenly after 30 days’ written notice. Pool fences fall under a separate state rule, a barrier at least 60 inches tall, no child-sized gaps, self-latching gates, and vinyl meets that non-climbable standard. Some Downey communities layer on their own HOA fence rules, apart from city code.
Four steps take your Downey fence from the first call to a finished line that meets the city’s own height rules: a free on-site estimate, a clear written contract, a careful custom-fabricated install, and your warranty in hand.
Expect straight numbers from the first call, not a surprise total later, with zero pressure to commit.
A phone call gets you a rough number; a firm one follows once we walk your Downey lot, access, and any fence to remove.
Everything goes on paper first: scope, materials, height, timeline, warranty, so nothing catches you off guard mid-job.
Our crew installs and custom-fabricates to the exact height your lot allows, then cleans the site before leaving.
Your transferable limited lifetime warranty and our 5-year workmanship warranty go in writing, and we stay reachable.

Not in front or street-side yards. Chain-link is prohibited there across residential, commercial, and mixed-use zones, though it may be allowed elsewhere on the lot.
Barbed wire, razor wire, and electrified fencing are prohibited in residential zones entirely.
Every yard is different, so there is no flat price. The real drivers are material, the run’s height and length, gate count, site access, and whether an old fence needs to come out.
