Fence Installation in Wayne, PA
Wayne's estate-sized properties, country club communities, and Main Line aesthetics demand premium fencing. With lots often exceeding an acre, these are big projects that require precision — from navigating Radnor Township's zoning to meeting some of the region's strictest HOA standards.
Why Wayne Homeowners Invest in Premium Fencing
Wayne is the heart of the Main Line — one of the most affluent communities in the Philadelphia region, with a median household income exceeding $150,000. Homes here sit on generous 0.5 to 2+ acre lots with mature landscaping, pools, tennis courts, and gardens that all need protection.
The terrain is hilly with rocky ridges — classic Main Line topography that requires careful post placement and stepped or racked installation on slopes. A typical Wayne project involves 40–60+ sections, multiple gates for garden access and pool entry, and precise coordination with property surveys to ensure compliance with Radnor Township's setback requirements.
Deer overpopulation is a major concern — these large, wooded lots attract significant deer traffic. Many Wayne homeowners fence specifically to protect gardens and landscaping from deer damage. Additionally, country club HOAs like those near Aronimink Golf Club have some of the most stringent aesthetic requirements in the area.

Wayne falls under Radnor Township's zoning jurisdiction.
Permit Requirements
- Zoning permit required: Radnor Township requires a zoning permit for all new fence installations.
- Open-style front yards: Front-yard fences are limited to 4 feet and must be open style (not solid privacy panels).
- Setbacks: 5–10 foot setbacks may apply depending on your zoning district (e.g., HO-75 overlay). We verify exact setbacks for your property.
Good to Know
- HOA approval critical: Wayne's country club communities have strict aesthetic standards. Get HOA approval before applying for a township permit.
- Rear-yard height: Rear and side yards typically allow up to 6–8 feet, which is helpful for deer deterrence.
- Property surveys: On estate-sized lots, a current property survey is essential. We can work from your existing survey or recommend a surveyor.
We manage the full process. HOA architectural review, Radnor Township permits, PA 811 utility marking, and coordination with your property survey — we handle everything so your Wayne fence project is seamless.

Frequently Asked Questions: Fencing in Wayne
How much does a fence cost for a Wayne estate?
It depends on lot size. A half-acre to one-acre property typically runs $8,000–$17,000 for vinyl or $6,500–$14,000 for wood. Full perimeter fencing on 2+ acre estates can reach $30,000+ in vinyl. We price per section so you know exactly what you're paying for.
Will my country club HOA approve fencing?
Wayne's country club communities typically approve ornamental aluminum for front and side yards, and vinyl privacy for backyards — but color, height, and style restrictions vary. We review your HOA's architectural guidelines upfront and design accordingly. We've worked with communities near Aronimink and similar clubs.
What fence height keeps deer out?
Standard 6-foot fencing deters most deer, but determined ones can clear it. Where Radnor Township allows, we can install 7–8 foot fencing for serious deer protection. Deer extension kits that add angled mesh above a standard fence are also effective and less visually intrusive.
Can you work on hilly, rocky Main Line properties?
Absolutely. Wayne's terrain is hilly with rocky ridges. We use stepped and racked installation methods on slopes, and our no-dig steel post system handles the rocky subsoil without excavation.
How long does a large Wayne project take?
Estate-scale projects with 60+ sections typically take 3–5 days on site. Smaller garden or pool enclosures take 1–2 days. Radnor Township permits and PA 811 utility marking add 1–2 weeks of lead time.
