Why Commercial Fencing is Essential for Your Business in Burlington
When most businesses think of fencing, they do so for security purposes. While that is important, the function of commercial fencing goes beyond keeping unauthorized persons out.
Defines Property Boundaries
Since time immemorial, fence installation has been done to define clear property boundaries. This is crucial, especially in Burlington’s commercial and industrial zones where neighbouring properties overlap or lack natural separations. Our skilled installers ensure that your property boundaries are clearly defined to reduce disputes and ensure you operate within city regulations.
Benefit of Privacy
Many businesses prefer to keep their equipment, operational processes, and materials out of public view. If this is what you are looking for, Premier Fencing has you covered. Our privacy fence installations will create a cleaner and more professional appearance of your property while protecting you from unnecessary attention.
Access Control
A good commercial fence enables you to control when and how pedestrians and vehicles enter your premises. This plays a crucial role in streamlining business operations, improving employee and visitor safety, and reducing the risk of theft.
Boost Curb Appeal
The condition and design of your security fencing affect how customers or partners perceive your business. A clean, sturdy, and well-designed fence radiates professionalism.
It is in your best interest to request a free quote from us if your fence is old, dull or damaged. Our team will assess the different options available and help you choose the fencing solutions that best fit your business and location.
Which Types of Commercial Fencing are Most Common in Burlington
Businesses in Burlington use diverse fencing materials depending on their budget, needs, and desired appearance. Some materials are selected for their aesthetic appeal, others for their low-maintenance needs, and some are picked because they prioritize security. Understanding the pros and cons of each fencing option makes it easier to select a fence that best suits your needs.
Chain Link
Chain link fencing stands as the most widely used metal fence, not just in Burlington but across Canada. Its popularity comes from its balance of strength, versatility and affordability.
A chain link fence works well for industrial spaces, parking lots, storage yards, and utility areas where ventilation and visibility are important. These fences are easy to reinforce with additional security features such as razor coil, barbed wire, vinyl coating, and privacy slats.
If you want a solution that is functional, cost-effective and requires minimal maintenance, our team at Premier Fencing can install chain link fencing for you.
Aluminum and Steel
Aluminum or steel fencing is common around schools, sports fields, office buildings, hotels, plazas, and high-end commercial storefronts. It’s preferred for the property’s security due to its durability.
Aluminum fencing offers a clean, modern appearance and high resistance to corrosion. This makes it a perfect choice for Burlington’s humid and snowy climate. Steel, on the other hand, takes strength to a whole new level. It offers a rigid, tamper-resistant barrier ideal for properties that require a higher level of security.
Both aluminum and steel can be customized with powder coating, decorative designs, and different heights to fit the branding of your property. If you have any questions or inquiries about metal fences, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
Vinyl Fencing
We recommend vinyl fencing for those seeking a privacy fence with a modern, clean appearance. The material is resistant to insects, weather, and fading. These factors matter in Burlington’s mix of freezing winters and hot summers.
Vinyl and composite fence types are common around multi-unit residential buildings, commercial plazas, childcare facilities, and restaurants with patios. They offer full privacy and require minimal ongoing maintenance.
Wood Fence
While wood fences are common in residential properties, they remain a viable choice in certain commercial settings. Coffee shops, restaurants, community centers, outdoor seating areas, and hospitality properties use wood to create a warm, inviting space. The beauty of wood is that it can be customized easily.
While it doesn’t require minimal maintenance like its metal and vinyl counterparts, regular staining or sealing can protect wood fences from Burlington’s moisture, snow, and temperature swings.
What Should Businesses Consider Before Choosing a Fence Installation?
Choosing commercial fencing is as much about planning as it is about picking the right material. At Premier Fencing, we understand this firsthand. We also recognize that every business has different priorities, and overlooking the essentials can result in higher costs or compliance issues. We are always happy to offer a consultation for companies considering security fencing. Here are factors to consider before choosing any commercial fence installation:
Property Type
The nature of work that takes place on a property dictates the fence decision-making process. Industrial facilities focus on security and durability, while retail spaces prioritize appearance and customer safety. Office buildings often seek a balance of perimeter control and professionalism.
Necessary Security Features
The height of a fence is not the only factor that influences security. Reinforced posts, anti-climb features, surveillance integration, proper gating systems, and fence placement significantly enhance security. Before choosing a fence, consider all the security features you need integrated.
Bylaws or Regulations
Burlington has regulations governing fence height, materials, and property line placement. Failing to adhere to these rules can result in hefty fines or forced removal of the fence.
Here’s a summary of fence height recommendations in Burlington:
| Recommendation | Source | |
| Maximum fence height | 2 m (6′7″) | Burlington Division Fence Bylaw 024-2003 |
| Minimum height for commercial properties next to residential zones | 1.8 m (5′11″) | Burlington Zoning By-law |
| Minimum recommended height for security fencing | 2.4 m (7′10″) | RCMP Security Fencing Guide (GCPSG-009) |
| Recommended height for high-security sites | Up to 3.6 m (11′10″) | RCMP |
Whether you are in Burlington or surrounding cities, the first thing our team does before recommending commercial fencing solutions is review the local bylaws. Regulations change, and we make sure we are always up to date, so your project remains compliant from the outset.
Budget for Commercial Fencing
The cost of a fence installation depends on material, height, length, and security features. Chain link fencing is the most economical, while ornamental metal fences and composite fences land at the higher end of the spectrum.
We help businesses look beyond the construction/installation costs to consider the long-term maintenance needs of each material. A fence that is more expensive upfront might save you money over time if it lasts longer or requires minimal maintenance.
Why Professional Commercial Fence Installation Matters
A commercial fence is only as strong and reliable as the quality of its installation. Even a durable, modular iron fence can fail prematurely if it is not installed correctly. Let’s examine the risks associated with a poor installation and the benefits of a professional installation.
Risks of a Poor or DIY Installation
An improper fence installation, whether from inexperience or cutting corners, can lead to issues such as:
- Sagging or misaligned panels
- Leaning or unstable posts
- Uneven fence lines
- Weak, malfunctioning gates
These problems compromise your property’s security and often result in costly repairs. Our team can help you meet commercial-grade standards to ensure compliance and increased overall durability.
Benefits of an Expert Installation
Our team brings years of experience and local insight into every project. We understand Burlington’s soil conditions, weather patterns, and frost line depth. These are factors that directly impact fence stability. By setting posts at the proper depth, reinforcing them correctly, and using the right tools, hardware, and alignment techniques, we ensure your fence is built to last and withstand seasonal ground movement.
At Premier Fencing, we exceed industry standards on commercial installations. Every project is backed by:
- A 2-year warranty on all materials and workmanship
- Full insurance coverage, giving you peace of mind and protection from liability
With professional installation, your commercial fence becomes a long-lasting investment, not a recurring expense.

FAQ
The best fence depends on your priorities. Chain link is perfect for budget-friendly security, while steel and iron are best for durability and a more polished look. Vinyl works well if low maintenance and privacy are a priority.
$15-$45/ft for chain link, $35-$90/ft for vinyl, $50-100ft for aluminum, and $60-$150/ft for steel. The final price depends on terrain, gates, permits, and security add-ons.
In many cases, you will need a permit to install a new fence. Burlington has specific regulations on fence placement, height, and materials.
Steel, iron and aluminum perform well in Burlington’s climate. Their durability is due to resistance to rust and the ability to withstand extreme temperature changes. Vinyl and composite handle moisture and sun exposure extremely well without requiring frequent maintenance.
Potentially. Insurers offer credits for improved perimeter security and access control. We recommend obtaining insurer pre-approval on planned security measures to capture savings.

Testimonials
Discover what our previous customers say about our quality work.
Worked with Todd on the design and scheduling and Tim came in to install the elevated deck with an enclosed, water proof, storage room below it. End result is a fantastic deck, incredibly well made. Tim’s attention to detail and pride of workmanship is very apparent and greatly appreciated. Premier also installed the “wrought iron” fence around the property a couple of weeks earlier which we are also extremely pleased with. Would highly recommend.
We had a fairly large backyard project in our new home. The quotation and design was completed using information of our new lot well prior to moving in. Within 3 weeks of moving in our fence was done, ahead of projected time and exactly on budget.
The crew from initial quotation to final construction were incredibly kind and courteous. Their workmanship was immaculate and the cleanliness was pristine. I am yet to find a nail after the build has been completed!
Stop searching and reach out to the team. These are the ones!
We were very happy with the customer service we received by Premier Fencing on our deck project. Everything from the initial quote to the final project build were delivered on time. I had a lot of questions throughout the process. James encouraged me to ask as many as I needed and responded in a timely manner. He was happy to price out different options for us and was not pushy at all. Tim installed the deck efficiently and did a quality job. They cleaned up after themselves when the project was done and did minimal damage to the yard. Everyone was very friendly and professional. We would definitely recommend working with them.
Had fence posts that were starting to lean over pretty bad. Dan provided a quick turn around on a quote to replace the posts.. Michael and Alex came out and did a good job replacing 8 – 6×6 posts. Would reccomend for sure!
Premier Fencing & Backyard Solutions just finished a deck install on our bungalow condo. We were more than impressed from the first meeting with Todd to the building of the deck. Todd kept us very well informed from beginning to end. Tim the deck builder was amazing! The quality of his work is top notch. Our neighbours have also commented on Tim’s workmanship and quality. It was a pleasure doing business with this company. Colin & Debbie
Our old deck was in need of replacement. After careful consideration and asking around I was directed to Premier Fencing. I wanted a company that had been around for a while. I soon discovered the roots of this company date back in the KW area over many family generations with many positive comments.
Our new deck rests on modern Helical Screw Piles that protrude well below the frost line, installed by Premier. We opted to use composite deck planks that do not require any finishing.
Since our deck doubles as a spring and summer outdoor living room we also opted to have a Pergola supplied and installed by Premier as well.
Our experience with Premier has been top notch. The materials, and workmanship were excellent!
A quality, professional company from the quote to the post crew to the fence hangers and the touch-ups. Add friendly office staff and I have no choice but to leave a 5 star review!! The fence is so nice that we may have to get them to update our deck in the future.
Had Premier Fencing replaced our fence that was damaged in a wind storm. My wife and I are very impressed with the professional job and quality of their work. Dan and Kimberly did excellent work. Would recommend this company if you need Fencing and decking done.
Like most home owners, we took plenty of time researching who we wanted to install our new fence and deck. In the end, we had four different companies quote the job and we are very happy that we chose Premier Fencing and Backyard Solutions. We had them take on our deck installation last summer, and have them lined up to replace our fence in the spring.
From the initial point of contact through the design and quoting process to completion, our sales representative Paul was a pleasure to deal with. He was communicative, professional, open to our input and timely with all his communications. He’s an excellent representative for the company, and our comfort level with Paul was certainly a factor in our decision. He listened to our design ideas and priorities and shared his input, ultimately helping us make the best decisions for our backyard.
Our installation was done by Ron, who undeniably takes pride in what he does. If Paul “talks the talk”, Ron is definitely the guy for the walk. As my wife put it “he’s very methodical. You can tell he’s been doing this for ever!”. Unlike some other “professionals” we’ve had in to work on the house, there were no expletives… no perplexed “what am I going to do now??” looks. No untimely disappearances for hours or days, with things half completed. No… Ron showed up, did his thing and left. I felt like Ron was working as if it was his backyard, not mine. Again, it’s evident that this isn’t his first rodeo, and his workmanship speaks for itself. Suffice to say, I’ll insist that RON to do the rest of the work we need done.
All in all, our experience with Premier Fencing and Backyard Solutions was fantastic and we are very happy we decided to hire them. They will be involved with any other outdoor construction projects we undertake.
Premier was awesome! We presented them with the challenge of building a fence to secure our pool and dog, but still have the look of a split rail farm fence. The finished product was beyond our expectations!!
Dustyn and Dan were great to work with – professional, competent and pleasant, taking pride in their work.
If you’re looking to build a new fence, Premier should be who you call first!
Amazing to deal with from start of project to the end. They were very easy to work with and were great to help me get the deck and fence I had envisioned. I’m so pleased with my new deck and fence. I added a gazebo as well from Premier Fence which was the perfect touch for my perfect deck. I highly recommend Premier Fencing ! You won’t be disappointed. I dealt with both the fence crew and the deck team. All staff working on my project were friendly and their work was outstanding.Thank you for making my backyard beautiful!
Very happy with the entire experience. Workmanship and quality was exactly as expected. Sales support was amazing (Thank you Todd).
We just recently had a second story deck installed with Premier Fencing & Backyard Solutions and are very happy with the final result. They were able to tie the design into our pre-existing lower deck very nicely. The cost was competitive with several other quotes we received and actually came in on the lower end. We would definitely recommend Premier in the future!
Josh and Brad came out in the middle of March to dig the holes for the posts while there was still snow on the ground. Nonetheless, they worked quickly and effectively.
Ron was our contractor and did an excellent job! He was very easy to engage with and checked in daily to see if we had any questions or concerns. He was very open to any minor adjustments we had and ensured everything was just the way we wanted it. His craftsmanship and attention to all the fine details was excellent and he took great care in making sure the workspace/yard was cleaned up of all debris before leaving. I was blown away at how quickly it all came together. From the filling of the posts to completion it took less than a week.
We can’t wait to enjoy this new space for many years to come!
Service technician Ron was customer friendly and did a great job. Happy with the new fence.
After numerous quotes, we selected Premier to replace the fence between us an our next door neighbour in the fall of 2020. We are all VERY happy with the outcome and would recommend Premier in a heartbeat. Every single person we work with was professional and friendly – Nic on the quote, Dan J, and Josh on the teardown and Ryan and Kenny on the construction and Terralyn in the back office. Keep up the great work!
