Expert Fence Company Serving Sorgho, Kentucky
Nearly everything in Sorgho sits close to where KY 56 crosses KY 1554, on short lanes like Spring Haven Trace and Autumn Creek that end at a crop line. Lots are wide, review boards are rare on these streets, and the ground holds spring water long enough to matter when we dig post holes.
The lifetime workmanship warranty on every fence Frontier Fence installs is the same on farm-edge acreage as it is on a cul-de-sac lot, and it has covered our installations since 2015. Estimates cost you nothing, and if you would rather build the fence yourself, we sell professional-grade aluminum, vinyl, and wood material and deliver it out to Sorgho.

Fence Types for Sorgho Properties
Our Recent Projects
Here are some fences we have installed in Sorgho, Kentucky. Wood privacy and white vinyl account for four of the six. The two black aluminum fences show how an open picket fence looks when turning a property corner and enclosing a pool.
Most Companies Give a Year. We Give a Lifetime.
Every fence we build includes a lifetime workmanship warranty. We are a local, family-owned company, and we stand behind our work long after the crew has packed up and driven home for the day.
Material Performance in Sorgho, Kentucky
A fence stands in the open out here, and it withstands wet springs, a winter of freezing nights and thawing afternoons, and storm wind with little in its way.
Aluminum is the material this weather affects least. The powder-coated finish does not rust in humidity that peaks near 80 percent in May, and an open picket lets a storm line pass through instead of pushing against it. Chain link handles that wind just as well, and a PVC coating over the galvanizing helps when ice loads the fabric. Vinyl does not absorb spring water, though the panels expand and contract with the season, so the rails need room to move.
Wood is vulnerable at the soil line rather than above it, because the mid-South sits in the intermediate-to-high decay band, and roughly 50 inches of rain a year leaves the base damp. Staining within 60 days of installation is a condition of the workmanship warranty. Ornamental steel is galvanized under its finish, so it withstands the freeze and thaw that scales a concrete footing. We rent, set, and collect temporary chain link, so weather-related wear on those panels is our responsibility rather than yours.
FAQs
Questions at the KY 56 crossroads usually come down to wind, wet ground, and what the county allows, so here are the ones we hear most in Sorgho.
Yes, and we keep that current in every jurisdiction we work in. Frontier Fence meets all licensing and insurance requirements for each municipality where we install fences in Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky, and Kentucky is half of that service area. Because Sorgho is unincorporated, the requirements that apply to your property come from Daviess County rather than a city hall. Ask us at the estimate, and we will go over what we carry.
Most residential aluminum fences in Sorgho are installed in one to two days on site, though a long rural property line, a slope, or rock in the holes can take longer. Setting the posts is the part that determines the schedule, since the concrete needs time before panels and gates can hang straight. We generally book a few weeks out on in-stock material, and we tell you where your job sits in the schedule when we quote. Contact us to get your free estimate on the calendar.
A wood privacy fence can handle it, but the fence line has to be laid out for wind, because a solid panel bears more wind pressure than an open design. Fence lines in Sorgho often sit against open cropland with nothing upwind to slow a storm line, and this region builds to a 115 mph ultimate design wind speed. What keeps a tall panel standing is the depth and spacing of the posts, and Kentucky building code puts the frost depth for this county at 24 inches. If your lot is especially exposed, a shadow-box wood fence lets air pass through rather than blocking it.
Every fence we build carries a lifetime workmanship warranty, so the standard is set before the first post is installed. Our crews are trained on current installation methods, and we sell the same professional-grade material we install, so what goes on your property is what we supply to contractors and other fence companies. Many of those materials carry a manufacturer warranty on top of ours. Wood is the exception, and it has to be stained within 60 days of installation to keep the workmanship coverage valid.
The length of the fence line is the biggest factor, followed by height, the number of gates, and how the ground lies. On chain link specifically, bare galvanized fabric and black or green PVC-coated fabric are different material choices, and a semi-privacy weave is a further step up. Removing an old fence, working a slope, or hitting rock all add labor to the job. We offer financing through a lending partner if you would rather pay over time, and the estimate itself is free.
Vinyl handles moisture better than anything else we sell, which is why it is a common choice on the wetter lots around here. The PVC does not absorb water, so the base will not rot or swell through a spring that brings close to 50 inches of rain a year. Humidity near 80 percent in May does not affect it either, and surface mildew washes off with a hose and a mild cleaner. A vinyl fence does expand and contract with temperature, so the panels are built to float inside the rails.
