Fence installed in Gallatin, Tennessee

Gallatin, Tennessee Fence Company

Frontier Fence has kept its shop at 400 Belvedere Dr N Unit B in Gallatin, minutes from the Public Square, since 2015, so the crew that builds your fence works out of the town you live in. Contractors and homeowners buy material at that same counter.

Top Rated Fence Company in Gallatin, Tennessee

Our shop is here in Gallatin, minutes from the Public Square, and so are the crews and the material we sell. We load trailers and start the day near your property. The historic district requires a Certificate of Appropriateness before exterior work, and lots at Carellton drain slowly over a pan two feet down.

We have installed fences out of Gallatin for 11 years, and every fence we build carries a lifetime workmanship warranty. Material sales matter just as much, so contractors, fence companies, and homeowners pick up aluminum, vinyl, and wood materials or have them delivered.

The 2026 Main Street Award for Best Fence Company in Sumner County

What Fence Installation Is Like in Gallatin, Tennessee

A job downtown and a job off Big Station Camp Boulevard are two different builds, and the ground under both of them changes how deep we set posts.

Ground That Holds Water

Water perches on the pan under the ground, so a fresh post hole can stay wet for days after a storm. We plan the depth and concrete around that.

Historic District Review

Exterior work in the district around the Public Square needs a Certificate of Appropriateness, so styles and materials get settled before a post is installed.

Brand-New Backyards

Carellton and The Paddock at Kennesaw Farms are the first installations on bare builder lots, where HOA architectural review settles height and style before we dig.

FAQs

These are the questions we hear most often at the shop from Gallatin property owners, from city permits to which materials hold up in our clay.

Yes, and spring is when delays are most common. Spring is the wettest stretch of the year here, and the clay under Gallatin drains slowly enough to perch water, so a hole dug in a wet week can stay full of water. Most residential installations run one to two days on site, but may take longer depending on rain, the size of the job, and access to the fence line. Winter is workable as well, since freezing nights are common here, but nearly all of them thaw by afternoon.

The city does not publish a fence-specific ordinance online, so what applies to your front yard comes out of the zoning and setback review the Building Codes department runs for your address. Calling that office with your property details is the quickest way to get a straight answer. In the historic district around the Public Square, exterior work also needs a Certificate of Appropriateness, which covers style and material, not just height. Newer subdivisions layer their own HOA architectural review on top of those rules.

Ask the city before you build, because Gallatin publishes no fence-specific rules online, and the answer depends on your property. The Building Codes department takes applications through its Citizen Self-Service portal and turns most residential reviews around in three to five days, while addresses outside the city limits fall to Sumner County Building Codes instead. We build wood fences in cedar, red pine, and yellow pine, and each one carries a lifetime workmanship warranty. Confirm what your address needs before the fence line is staked.

Chain link is one of the strongest options for a large property, and it is what we install most on the acreage north and east of town along Hartsville Pike. It closes a long boundary with far less material than a solid panel fence, and galvanized fabric withstands the ice loads that winter storms put on a fence line in this part of Tennessee. Black or green PVC coating helps the mesh blend into a tree line rather than stand out from it. Wood post-and-rail with wire mesh is the other design worth considering on open ground.

Both are solid choices, and the right one depends on where the fence is installed and how it has to perform. Aluminum does not rust, is lightweight and easier to handle on slopes, and has a premium scratch-proof powder coating, which is why we use it on pool enclosures and long residential fence lines. Ornamental steel is galvanized and heavier, so it suits a commercial perimeter or a front boundary that needs to look substantial from the street. Both come in the same eight panel styles, so the real decision is weight and placement rather than appearance.

No material adds the most value on its own, though the materials that maintain their appearance the longest do the most for a property. Vinyl and aluminum retain their finish with almost no upkeep, so they still look new years after the crew leaves. A well-built cedar privacy fence looks like a finished backyard to most buyers, and staining it within 60 days of installation is also what keeps its workmanship warranty valid. Get in touch, and we will walk your fence line and price it at no cost.

Frontier Fence Is Based in Gallatin, Tennessee

Our trucks, our crews, and our material yard are all here in Gallatin, so a job in this town never starts with a drive in from somewhere else.

Nashville Pike is the main route through town, and our trucks run it past Volunteer State Community College on the way out to jobs. Vietnam Veterans Boulevard puts our crews in Hendersonville in minutes, and SR 109 runs north to Portland and south to Lebanon. We have built fences on the 19th-century streets off the Public Square, out at the lake near Bledsoe Creek State Park, and on the new blocks toward Station Camp. Reach the shop at (615) 981-9975, and we will come measure your line at no cost.

Fence Permits in Gallatin, Tennessee

The city issues building permits inside the Gallatin city limits, and Sumner County covers property that sits outside them.

Tennessee leaves fence rules to local jurisdictions, so the office that matters is the city's own. Gallatin Building Codes takes applications through a Citizen Self-Service portal and turns most residential reviews around in three to five days. The city publishes no separate fence ordinance, so height, setbacks, and placement get settled in that review. Property outside the city limits falls to Sumner County Building Codes, and exterior work in the historic district needs a Certificate of Appropriateness. Confirm which office covers your property before you order material.
