Fence Installation & Repair services in Lincolnwood
Fence rules in Lincolnwood are among the strictest near Chicago, so the design is mostly decided before we arrive. A residential front yard cannot have a fence. A side yard fence stops at 4 feet and must be half open. Only the rear part of the lot can take a 6-foot fence. Chain link has to be black, brown or green, and vinyl has to meet a material standard the village spells out. Homes range from brick ranches and split levels to the large houses of the Towers, on wide lots with deep back yards and often no alley. Because privacy fence is limited to the rear, many owners pair an open metal fence at the sides with a solid one across the back. You will need a plat of survey no more than five years old.
