Custom Fences Built Around Your Edmond Home, Not the Other Way Around
Custom residential fencing is not just picking a style from a catalog. At Legendary Fence Company Edmond, we start by walking your property in person and talking through how you actually use your yard. In Edmond, that might mean lining up a new fence with an existing storm shelter, working around a backyard pool, or matching the elevation changes you see in areas like Coffee Creek or near Arcadia Lake.
During the on-site visit, we measure lot lines, locate sprinkler heads, look for shallow utility lines, and check how your soil drains after a rain. Red clay and sandy patches are both common in Edmond, and each affects how deep we set posts and what concrete mix we use. We also check your existing fence, if you have one, to see what failed and why. Many local fences lean because the posts were not set below the frost line or the concrete did not extend above grade to shed water.
From there, we help you narrow down what your custom fence needs to do: keep kids and pets safe, create privacy from a busy street like Broadway Extension, protect a pool to meet insurance rules, or simply frame a garden. Every design decision is tied to a purpose so you do not overspend on features that do not matter for your situation. Because we work all over Edmond, we are used to blending new custom fences into established neighborhoods and newer developments so your project looks like it belongs on your street, not dropped in from somewhere else.
Materials, Styles, and Layouts That Fit Edmond Yards
Custom fence work is very material specific. Legendary Fence Company Edmond installs wood, vinyl, ornamental steel, aluminum, and mixed-material fences, and we adjust our recommendations based on your lot and the way Oklahoma weather behaves. High winds, regular sun exposure, and fast temperature swings all influence which materials hold up best.
For privacy, many Edmond homeowners choose 6 foot wood fences using cedar or pine with pressure-treated posts. We explain the tradeoffs clearly. Cedar costs more up front but holds its shape better and resists rot. Pine is more affordable but needs careful sealing and maintenance. We can build board-on-board for full privacy with no gaps, or a shadowbox layout if you want air flow and a more neighbor-friendly look.
If you are near a greenbelt, golf course, or open field, we often suggest ornamental steel or aluminum. These systems give a clean, upscale look, meet many HOA guidelines, and still let you see past your fence. Panel height, picket spacing, and decorative tops are all customizable, and we anchor the posts with wind load in mind because open fences can act like sails in Oklahoma storms.
More and more Edmond clients are asking for hybrid designs, like a solid wood privacy fence on the sides with a see-through section at the back to keep the view. We also do custom transitions where a fence steps down in height near driveways or street corners so sight lines stay safe. Every layout is mapped around existing patios, sheds, AC units, and trees so the fence feels like it was planned with the house, not tacked on later.
How Our Custom Fence Process Works, Step by Step
A custom fence project at Legendary Fence Company Edmond follows a clear process so there are no surprises.
1. Consultation and site check: We meet at your Edmond property, walk the full fence line, measure slope and distances, and listen to what you want. If you share a fence line with neighbors, we can mark possible shared boundaries so you can talk to them if you wish to split costs.
2. Design and options: We sketch layouts that fit your lot and discuss gate locations, swing direction, and access points for lawn equipment or trailers. For pool fences, we plan self-closing, self-latching gates and code-compliant heights. We also cover small details that matter in daily use, like adding a wider gate where your lawn service enters or lining up a gate with your garage side door.
3. Written proposal: You receive a written estimate that breaks down materials, linear footage, number and type of gates, and any special features like custom trim, metal frame gates, or stepped sections for grade changes. We explain where we can adjust to meet your budget without weakening the fence.
4. Scheduling and prep: After approval, we call in utility locates when needed, confirm HOA rules if applicable, and schedule a start date that works for you. If an old fence needs removal, we include that in our scope and plan for disposal.
5. Installation: Our crew arrives with materials staged for your specific build. We set string lines, dig post holes to the correct depth for Edmond soil and climate, and pour concrete that extends slightly above ground to keep water from pooling at posts. We check level and alignment as we build, and we handle tricky spots like tight gaps next to brick columns or uneven alleyways with custom cuts rather than generic filler pieces.
6. Walkthrough and follow-up: When the fence is complete, we walk the project with you, test every gate, and review care instructions based on your material choice. If you notice any small issues during the first weeks, you can call us directly and we address them instead of pushing you into a long warranty process.
What Drives the Cost of a Custom Fence in Edmond
Fence pricing is not one-size-fits-all. At Legendary Fence Company Edmond, we explain what actually affects the cost so you can make smart decisions.
The biggest factors are material type, fence height, and total footage. For example, a 6 foot board-on-board cedar privacy fence costs more per foot than a 4 foot chain link or a simple picket design. Ornamental steel systems cost more than aluminum, but typically offer higher strength and a different look.
Terrain and access also change the price. A straight, level fence line in a typical Edmond subdivision is faster to build than a fence that crosses drainage ditches or weaves through large trees. Yards that back up to creeks, greenbelts, or steep slopes often need stepped or racked panels, which take more labor. Tight access where materials must be carried by hand instead of using machinery can also add time.
Custom details are another cost driver. Metal-framed wood gates, upgraded hardware, decorative caps, lattice top sections, and mixed-material runs all add labor and material. We do not hide these in a lump sum. Our proposals show what each upgrade costs, so you can decide whether it matters enough for your project.
There are ways to keep things affordable without cutting corners. Sometimes we recommend a simpler design on side yards that only you see, and a more detailed face on the street or backyard side that everyone notices. In other cases, we might keep the main run in wood and use ornamental panels only where views are important. We will tell you directly when an upgrade is mostly cosmetic and when it truly affects strength or lifespan.
Common Issues, Local Rules, and How We Help You Avoid Problems
Custom residential fences in Edmond are subject to local codes, HOA guidelines, and practical challenges that many homeowners do not see until something goes wrong. Legendary Fence Company Edmond deals with these issues daily and builds your project to stay out of trouble.
We start with basic compliance. Edmond has rules about maximum height in front yards, corner lots, and near driveways, and certain neighborhoods have stricter standards for materials and appearance. If you are in an HOA, we can help you gather the specifications and make sure your design matches what is allowed so you do not face a costly tear-out later.
Property lines are another common pain point. We are not surveyors, but we build based on existing markers and survey documents if you have them. When lines are unclear, we recommend you confirm with a survey before installation so your new custom fence does not end up even a few inches over the boundary. This is especially important in older Edmond neighborhoods where fences have shifted over the years.
Oklahoma weather is hard on fences. Strong winds, intense sun, and sudden storms can expose weak construction. We counter that with proper post depth, concrete quality, correct fasteners for each material, and gate construction that resists sagging. For wood fences, we talk about staining and sealing schedules, and we can recommend local products suited to our climate.
We also plan for long-term use. For families with dogs, we look for gaps near the ground, loose soil, or places where a pet could push under or squeeze through. For homeowners with pools, we focus on latch heights and gate swing so a child cannot easily open the gate from the outside. All of these details fold into the design of your custom fence, so it works for your real life, not just in photos.
