Vinyl and aluminum fences for Sunland yards

For Sunland homes, we install and custom-fabricate vinyl and aluminum fencing, sized to your yard rather than a stock catalog.

On a foothill lot that means a fence that steps with the grade, shrugs off the wind coming off the canyon, and answers to one City of Los Angeles rulebook. Behind the work sits a 5.0 rating from Greater LA homeowners.

Vinyl and aluminum, built to the size your yard needs

Pick vinyl or aluminum, and either way the fence gets built to fit your property. Vinyl is the budget-friendly line: 16 panel styles spanning privacy, semi-privacy, picket, and pool designs, 14 colors across three families, and heights from 2 to 8 feet with matching gates.

Custom heights, wall toppers that sit on an existing block wall, and the smaller runs other crews usually turn down are all fair game. Aluminum is the premium, modern line, powder-coated and clean-lined, backed by a 20-year material, 10-year coating, and 2-year steel-component warranty. It is also non-combustible, a sensible fit where a yard backs onto open foothill brush.

Fencing a foothill lot that climbs with the grade

Sunland yards rarely sit dead flat. The community climbs the front of the San Gabriel Mountains, roughly 1,150 to 1,950 feet up, so most runs cross some slope. On grade the panels rack, meaning each section tilts a little so it hugs the slope rather than hovering over a gap. Where the pitch is steeper, sections can step down instead. Which approach suits your yard is something a walk of the property settles before a single panel is cut.

Wind off Tujunga Canyon, and the metal inside the vinyl

Sunland sits right at the mouth of Big Tujunga Canyon, below Mount Lukens. Most days the air is calm, but when a Santa Ana switches on, the canyon works like a funnel and the gusts usually arrive with real force. That is where the metal insert earns its keep: in windy spots we run metal inside the vinyl, so it looks like vinyl on the outside but takes any realistic wind this area gets.

What shapes the price of a Sunland fence

No two Sunland fences carry the same price, because a handful of things move the number:

  • how many feet of fence the property needs
  • the height and the panel style you choose
  • how much the ground slopes, and how tight the access is
  • whether an old fence has to come out first
  • how many gates go in, and their size

A rough figure is easy to talk through by phone. The real number comes after a salesman walks the property and sees the whole picture, and that visit is free.

Services we offer in Sunland

For Sunland yards we install and fabricate privacy and picket panels, pool fencing, gates, and wall toppers, each one built to the measurements of the property. Every vinyl fence carries a transferable limited lifetime warranty, and both materials add our own 5-year workmanship warranty. The crew has built since 2018, with 2,000+ projects and 100,000+ feet of fence behind it.

Color Choices in Sunland

Morning shade off the ridge and hard afternoon glare hit the same run here, and neither one ages a finish. So this is purely a looks decision. Material sets its size: one range is broad, the other is read in seconds.

Vinyl, Sorted by Surface

Group them by finish and fourteen squares turn into three decisions. Plain solids stay flat, White and Clay among them. Smooth wood grains carry milled relief. TimberGrain blends go deepest. Color is part of the board, not on 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.

Aluminum Finishes

Deliberation is short on this side. Two plain neutrals plus a grain look reach the solid and slatted panels. One exception: contoured slats mean matte black. Powder coat gets there dry, takes a charge, and bakes on.

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.

Working Out the Height

Work out the job first. A patio screen, keeping a dog in, and a topper on a block wall are three different numbers, and each style has its own ceiling. Then the ground, the ridge wind, and the limit covered earlier trim it.

  • 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.

Fencing in Sunland: foothills and local rules

A foothill neighborhood at the mouth of the canyon

Sunland is a neighborhood of the City of Los Angeles, set in the foothills of the northeast San Fernando Valley between the Verdugo and San Gabriel Mountains. It forms the western half of Sunland-Tujunga, splitting from Tujunga around Mount Gleason Avenue, and sits beside Angeles National Forest and Big and Little Tujunga Canyon.

Above it stands Mount Lukens, at 5,074 feet the highest point in the City of Los Angeles. The area grew out of the Rancho Tujunga tract, began as Monte Vista around 1885, and took the name Sunland in 1926. Foothill Boulevard is the main street, Bolton Hall the landmark, and Shadow Hills keeps a semi-rural, horse-friendly character. The ZIP here is 91040.

One address, one rulebook: the City of Los Angeles

Here is what makes Sunland simpler than the towns a few miles west. Sunland was annexed to the City of Los Angeles in 1926, and Tujunga followed in 1932, so the whole community sits under one government.

Your fence answers to a single rulebook: the Los Angeles Municipal Code for height, and the Department of Building and Safety for permits. There is no county-versus-city question to untangle here. Rules shift over time and by parcel, so confirm specifics with the City of Los Angeles Planning and Building and Safety.

Fence height and permits under City of LA rules

A front-yard fence tops out at 42 inches, while side and rear fences can reach 6 feet. A wide lot of 40 feet or more can sometimes go to 8 feet, but that allowance is written for non-hillside lots, and plenty of Sunland parcels are hillside, so it may not reach yours. Going over the cap means a trip to Planning.

Permits are separate: a vinyl fence needs a building permit only above 10 feet, though a masonry wall over 3.5 feet or any retaining-wall fence always does. Two statewide rules also apply. The Good Neighbor Fence Act presumes neighbors share a boundary fence’s cost and asks 30 days’ notice, and a pool barrier must stand at least 60 inches with a self-closing, self-latching gate.

White Privacy Fence, Sunland

The backyard in Sunland had an overgrown hedge growing along an old boundary line. Before any new fence could go in, our crew removed the hedge along with the aging boundary structure it had grown around, clearing the soil back to the original property line.

A white vinyl privacy fence was installed in its place. With the overgrown hedge and old fencing cleared away, the backyard now has a defined white vinyl line in their place, running the original property boundary.

Working with Nairi on our project was very professional. We were quoted a price and impressed by the cost, which was lower than our other bids. It was a 2 day project and was completed as promised.

Your Sunland fence, from start to finish

How it works

There’s no mystery to how a Sunland fence comes together. It starts with a free on-site estimate, then a written contract that spells out the price, then a clean build by a crew that knows foothill grades, and it ends with your warranty in hand.

The cost talk comes early and stays in plain terms you can budget against, and nobody pushes you toward signing.

  1. Free estimate, measured

    First a rough number by phone, then a firm one after a salesman walks the lot and reads its slope and access.

  2. The price in writing

    Everything goes on paper first: scope, materials, height, timeline, and price, so nothing about the job surprises you.

  3. Build day, done clean

    On build day the crew pulls the old fence, sets posts to grade, runs the panels, and clears up. Most wrap in a day.

  4. Your warranty, in hand

    Once the fence is up we file your coverage, put it in your hands on paper, and stay a call away if it ever needs a look.

Sunland fence FAQ

Sunland fence questions, answered plainly

Before a Sunland project starts, a few questions come up again and again, so here are plain answers: whose rules apply, how tall a fence can go, when a permit is needed, how a hillside lot gets fenced, and how vinyl handles the wind off the canyon. Do not see yours here? Just ask.

Something still unclear?

Send over your Sunland fence questions and we will walk you through them.

Sunland is a neighborhood of the City of Los Angeles, so one rulebook governs your fence: the Los Angeles Municipal Code sets the height limits, and the Department of Building and Safety handles permits.

No county-versus-city question to sort out here. Confirm current details with the City.

In the City of Los Angeles, a front-yard fence tops out at 42 inches, and side and rear fences can reach 6 feet.

A wide 40-foot lot can sometimes reach 8 feet, but that allowance is for non-hillside lots, and many Sunland parcels are hillside, so it may not apply.

In the City of Los Angeles, a vinyl or non-masonry fence needs a building permit only above 10 feet.

A masonry wall over 3.5 feet needs one, and any retaining-wall fence always does. Height caps are a separate question from the permit. When unsure, check with Building and Safety.

Yes, and we do it often. Sunland lots climb the San Gabriel front, so most runs cross some grade.

Racked panels angle with the ground and keep the bottom rail close to the dirt the whole way, and where the pitch turns sharp the sections step down. A walk of the property usually settles what fits.

It will, when it is built for it. Sunland sits at the mouth of Big Tujunga Canyon, where a Santa Ana can pick up real speed coming down.

In windy spots we run metal inside the vinyl: it looks like vinyl outside, but there is metal within, and it takes any realistic wind this area gets.

Yes to both. We custom-fabricate vinyl from 2 to 8 feet, build wall toppers to sit on an existing block wall, and match gates to the run.

The smaller jobs and odd runs that larger crews usually turn away are the ones we like to take. Tell us the size and look you want, and it gets built to fit.
