Vinyl and Aluminum Fencing in Tujunga

We build custom vinyl and aluminum fencing for Tujunga’s foothill homes and hillside lots, racked to your grade.

A racked fence line follows a slope panel by panel instead of leaving a gap under the bottom rail, and each job here in Tujunga begins with a no-cost site walk before a written contract locks the full scope in.

Building for Tujunga’s Foothill Terrain

Tujunga sits in the foothills between the Verdugo and San Gabriel Mountains, near Mount Lukens, the highest point in the City of Los Angeles, with Foothill Boulevard and Tujunga Canyon Boulevard running through the neighborhood, close to Bolton Hall and the McGroarty Arts Center.

Many lots here carry real slope, and a fence built for flat ground will leave gaps under the bottom rail as the grade drops away. Our vinyl and aluminum panels are racked, angled at the post to follow the slope, so the top line stays clean and the bottom stays tight to the ground along the entire run.

Vinyl and Aluminum That Handle a Slope

Vinyl never yellows and never needs paint, just a rinse twice a year, and it comes in 10+ colors and 10+ styles at custom heights from 2 to 8 ft. Our aluminum line adds a modern, powder-coated look in black, white or a wood-grain finish, with an ASTM E84 Class A flame and smoke rating that matters in a foothill fire-hazard area.

Both materials are racked to your lot’s actual slope, not a flat-ground default, and every gate ships with extra framing so it stays true on a sloped driveway too.

Services we offer in Tujunga

Privacy and semi-privacy vinyl fencing lead the lineup here, along with picket styles, ranch rail, pool enclosures and matching gates for driveways of any width. The aluminum line covers privacy, semi-privacy and picket panels plus wall toppers for an existing block wall. Small and odd jobs, tight side yards, short retaining runs, are welcome too.

What Shapes the Cost of Your Tujunga Fence

A hillside lot changes the math more than a flat one. What drives the number: total footage, height, vinyl versus aluminum, gate count and width, whether the old fence needs demolition first, and how much extra racking the slope requires. A phone estimate gives you a ballpark; a site visit gives you a real figure for the actual grade of your lot.

Permits and Height Limits in Tujunga

As a Los Angeles neighborhood, Tujunga falls under LAMC 12.22 C.20(f): front yards cap at 3.5 ft, side and rear yards at 6 ft, up to 8 ft on non-hillside R-lots 40 ft or wider.

A building permit is required above 10 ft for a non-masonry fence, and any masonry or concrete wall built over 3.5 ft always needs one of its own. Verify current requirements and your lot’s hillside status with the Los Angeles Department of City Planning before finalizing a design.

Color for a Short Run

A short side run and a topper over the block wall still draw on the whole range, which is why it pays to note what you picked when more work follows later. Vinyl hands you the long list. Metal hands you a handful.

Vinyl, Names Come Last

Names are the least useful part of these swatches. Finish is what separates them: flat tones such as tan and clay, grains milled to show timber lines, and blends with a coarser face. Get the group right and the shade is easy.

Metal, Topper to Panel

Topper or full panel run, the metal wears one short set: a timber look, white, or black. Powder coat does the finishing, bonded by heat rather than brushed. Only matte black reaches a contoured slat. Nothing is made custom.

Height Above Masonry

Building on masonry that already stands works differently from starting at dirt, since the topper stacks onto whatever height the wall gives you. Everywhere else the design sets a ceiling and the yard picks a number under it.

  • I had an old wooden partition between two patios that needed replacing. I had taken good care of it but wood eventually rots. They removed the old fence and installed a custom new one it looks fantastic.

    I’m so happy with the work. It was done in a timely professional manner for a great price. I highly recommend them. Thank you, Nairi.

  • Vic and David did a great job with scheduling and installing new fencing. My only complaint is that I didn’t receive a text when they were on their way and since they arrived earlier than anticipated I wasn’t at home. Otherwise it has been great working with them.

Fencing and Life in Tujunga, CA

A Foothill Neighborhood of Los Angeles

Tujunga is a neighborhood within the City of Los Angeles, sitting roughly 18 miles northeast of downtown between the Verdugo and San Gabriel Mountains, next to Sunland and La Crescenta-Montrose. Foothill Boulevard and Tujunga Canyon Boulevard run through it, alongside smaller streets like McGroarty Avenue, Apperson Avenue and Woodward Avenue.

Mountains, Slope and a Fire-Aware Climate

Mount Lukens, at 5,074 ft the highest point in the City of Los Angeles, rises above the neighborhood, and much of the surrounding land is genuinely hilly rather than flat. That slope changes how a fence gets built: posts and panels have to rack to the grade instead of running level, and a foothill setting calls for materials that hold up to sun and heat without warping or fading.

Historic Landmarks and Local Parks

Bolton Hall, a 1913 stone building now a museum, and the McGroarty Arts Center, a designated Historic Cultural Monument, anchor Tujunga’s older core. Haines Canyon Park and Fehlhaber-Houk Park round out the neighborhood’s public green space, set against the foothill backdrop shared with Sunland and La Crescenta-Montrose.

Fence Height Rules for a Los Angeles Hillside Lot

Under LAMC 12.22 C.20(f), front yards cap at 3.5 ft and side or rear yards at 6 ft, rising to 8 ft only on non-hillside R-lots 40 ft or wider. A non-masonry fence needs a building permit above 10 ft, while masonry or concrete walls over 3.5 ft always require one. Confirm your lot’s hillside status and current limits with the Los Angeles Department of City Planning before finalizing a design.

How a Tujunga Fence Project Comes Together

How It Works

On a foothill lot the process leans harder on the site visit, since Tujunga’s real ground slope near Mount Lukens decides exactly how the racking and post spacing get planned before anything is written into the final contract.

One crew handles the whole job, start to finish, racked true to your slope and set to your schedule.

  1. Free On-Site Estimate

    A team member walks the slope, checks the grade at each post location and gives you a real number, not a phone guess.

  2. A Clear Written Contract

    Scope, materials, colors, height and gate count go on paper first, with the racking plan spelled out for the slope.

  3. Careful, Clean Install

    The crew sets posts to the grade, racks each panel to follow the slope, hangs gates and clears the old fence away.

  4. Warranty and Follow-Up

    Vinyl’s transferable lifetime coverage and aluminum’s 20-year material terms both carry our workmanship guarantee.

Fence Questions From Tujunga's Homeowners

Here are the questions Tujunga homeowners tend to ask about foothill slopes, Los Angeles height limits under LAMC, hillside racking, permits above 10 ft, shared boundary costs with a neighbor, and getting a fence built right on a real grade near Mount Lukens.

Have Another Question?

Message or call our team for a straight answer, no pressure at all.

As a Los Angeles neighborhood, Tujunga follows LAMC 12.22 C.20(f), which caps front-yard fences at 3.5 ft (42 in).

Side and rear yards reach 6 ft, rising to 8 ft on qualifying non-hillside lots. Verify your lot’s exact limits with the Los Angeles Department of City Planning.

The 8 ft side and rear allowance under LAMC 12.22 C.20(f) applies only to non-hillside R-lots 40 ft or wider.

On a genuinely hillside lot, common in Tujunga, the standard 6 ft side and rear cap applies. Confirm your lot’s hillside designation with the city before designing above 6 ft.

A non-masonry fence, including vinyl or aluminum, needs a permit only above 10 ft under LAMC 12.22 C.20(f).

A masonry or concrete wall taller than 3.5 ft always needs one of its own. Verify current requirements with the Los Angeles Department of City Planning first.

Yes.

As part of the City of Los Angeles, Tujunga falls under California Civil Code section 841, which presumes adjoining owners split a boundary fence’s cost equally and requires 30 days’ written notice before work starts, on top of whatever LAMC height and permit rules apply to your project.

Slope changes post spacing and panel racking: each section angles slightly at the post so the top line stays level while the bottom follows the grade, rather than leaving a gap.

It also affects footing depth, so a site visit matters more here than on a flat lot.

Yes, we work across Tujunga and the neighboring foothill communities of Sunland and La Crescenta-Montrose, applying the same LAMC height rules and hillside racking approach on every job we build there.
