Aluminum fencing gives a front yard a finished edge without blocking the view of the house, which suits Valdosta's 4-foot front-yard limit. It's also popular around pools and gardens.
Why aluminum
- Doesn't rust the way steel does.
- Powder-coated in black, bronze or white.
- Comes in panels with spear, flat or finial tops.
- Open design keeps corner-lot sight lines clearer.
Heights
Front-yard fences top out at 4 feet. On a corner lot, nothing over 3 feet goes inside the sight triangle, even an open aluminum fence. In back, aluminum can go taller, up to the 8-foot limit.
Price
Angi lists aluminum at $17 to $90 per linear foot nationally; the wide range reflects the difference between residential panels and heavy ornamental styles.
