Residential fence installation Melbourne – how we plan, design, and deliver

We start by listening. What do you value most – privacy, street appeal, pool safety, or pet containment? From there we recommend materials, heights, and styles that suit your block, council context, and maintenance preferences. Our team focuses on engineered execution and long-term reliability, not quick fixes.

What you can expect with us:

  • Site assessment – measure, check levels, spot hidden issues (services, fall, drainage).

  • Design guidance – panel rhythm, gate placement, latch heights, child-safe spacing.

  • Compliance alignment – pool fencing, sight lines, boundary rules, neighbour considerations.

  • Fabrication – custom panels, gates and hardware built for Melbourne weather.

  • Installation – clean, safe worksites, accurate set-out, tidy finishing.

  • Aftercare – tips for cleaning, touch-ups, and seasonal checks.


Popular styles for Melbourne homes

We fabricate and install a wide range of metal fencing styles to match heritage streetscapes, modern townhouses, and everything in between:

  • Flat-top – versatile for front boundaries and pool areas, available in steel or aluminium. A classic look that lifts street appeal while keeping costs efficient.

  • Rod-top – similar profile with the top rail set slightly lower so pickets show through for a lighter, traditional feel.

  • Spear-top – rod-top aesthetics with decorative or security spears added to the picket ends – great for character homes or extra deterrence.

  • Blade – bold, architectural fins that deliver strength and a premium, contemporary frontage. Offered in pre-made or custom options.

  • Aluminium slat – modern privacy with clean horizontal lines that reduce overlooking from the street or neighbours.

Why us for style variety: we’re a metal fabrication specialist – fences, gates, and matching features are our daily craft.

Installation steps – our six-stage method

1) Measure & mark We verify boundaries, setbacks, and heights so panels align cleanly with driveways, paths, and garden beds.

2) Footings done right Hole size, depth, and concrete mix are matched to soil conditions and fence loads for long-term stability.

3) Fabricate to fit Custom panel widths, gate frames, hinge plates, and latch posts are built square to reduce on-site shimming later. We’re set up for both pre-made and custom systems when your site demands it.

4) Set, level, fix We install posts to stringline, then mount panels with consistent gaps and safe picket spacing – especially important around pools and play areas.

5) Gates that feel premium Smooth travel, solid latching, and correct clearances so daily use feels effortless from day one.

6) Finish & handover We seal caps, touch up, clean down, and walk you through care – quick checks keep your fence sharp for years.

Compliance, safety, and family-friendly details

  • Heights & gaps: We’ll guide you on height and picket spacing that supports safety without compromising style.

  • Pool areas: Where relevant, we align latch heights, clear zones, and non-climbable surfaces with pool-fence requirements.

  • Visibility vs privacy: We’ll balance sightlines at driveway exits with the privacy you want at living spaces.

  • Neighbours: Boundary fences work best with respectful communication – we can help you plan and document the design so everyone’s aligned.
