Average cost by material
Chain link is typically the most economical option, followed by wood, with vinyl and aluminum in the mid-to-upper range and custom gates and ornamental steel at the top.
- Chain link & galvanized — lowest cost, commercial-grade
- Wood & cedar — mid-range, warm look, more upkeep
- Vinyl & PVC — mid/upper, zero maintenance
- Aluminum — upper, pool-code and lifetime finish
- Custom gates & railing — quoted per project
What drives the price
Linear footage and height are the biggest factors, but grade, gates, demolition of an old fence, permit and HOA requirements, and access all move the number. Pool-code compliance and automated gates add cost but also value.
Getting an accurate number
