Sacramento has a lot of ground to secure: warehouses and truck yards along Power Inn Road and in North Natomas, contractor yards off Richards Boulevard, the business parks of Rancho Cordova and McClellan, the port and rail sidings in West Sacramento, plus schools, churches, storage lots and apartment communities all over the region. Each one needs a different fence, and we start by asking what the fence has to stop: people on foot, vehicles, theft of materials or simply a view.
Galvanized chain link is still the standard for a long perimeter because it costs the least per foot and holds up for decades in the dry valley air. Options include heavier wire, taller fabric, privacy slats, windscreen and a bottom rail or tension wire. Ornamental steel costs more and looks better at the front of a property. Rules on height and on barbed or razor wire differ between the City of Sacramento, the county and the neighboring cities, and between zones, so we confirm them for the site before quoting those items.
Gates decide how well a commercial fence works day to day. A slide gate saves space and suits a yard with trucks. A swing gate is simpler and needs a clear arc. Either can have an operator, keypad or card reader. Flat valley sites make gate tracks easy, but hardpan can sit just under the surface, and we allow time to break through it for the larger gate footings.
Commercial & security fencing in Sacramento: common questions
Can I put barbed wire on a commercial fence in Sacramento?
It depends on the zone and the jurisdiction. The City of Sacramento bans barbed, razor and concertina wire on residential development, and commercial and industrial sites have their own section of the code. We ask the planning office for your parcel before we price it.
Do you fence large or occupied sites?
Yes. We build in phases around working driveways and loading areas and can put up temporary panels so the site stays closed each night during the job.
How long does a commercial fence last here?
Galvanized chain link and coated steel last a long time in Sacramento's dry climate. The usual causes of early failure are vehicle damage, sprinklers hitting the same posts every day and gates that were never adjusted. We cannot promise a number of years.
