Why Restaurant Fencing Requires a Commercial-Grade Approach
Restaurants operate differently than other commercial properties, and their fencing needs reflect that. Outdoor dining areas must comply with local codes and ADA requirements. Drive-through lanes and service entrances need gates that hold up to daily, high-frequency use. Patio fencing has to look sharp enough to attract guests while standing up to Chicago-area winters, summer humidity, and the general wear of a busy operation.
Residential-grade contractors often lack the experience, materials, or project management capacity to handle these demands at scale. Fencing By Wall has been serving commercial properties since 1988, and our team understands what facilities managers and franchise operators need: reliable scheduling, proper permitting, licensed and insured crews, and fencing built to commercial specifications from the start.High quality fencing

Why Fencing By Wall for Restaurant Fencing
Founded by Jim Wall and now operated by second-generation owner Mike Wall, we bring decades of hands-on commercial fencing experience to every project.
We adhere to AFA standards for installation quality, safety, and professional conduct which is important for clients who need to document contractor credentials for risk management or compliance purposes.
Non-negotiable for commercial work. Our documentation is current and available upon request.
We’ve completed repair, gate, and fencing work for quick-service franchise locations throughout the region, and we understand the documentation, scheduling, and quality expectations that come with those accounts.
Not every contractor can fabricate or repair metalwork in the field. We can, which means faster turnaround on repairs and retrofits, without sourcing a secondary vendor.

Restaurant Fencing FAQs
What types of fencing work best for restaurant patios?
Aluminum and ornamental steel are the most popular choices for restaurant patio fencing because they combine a polished appearance with long-term durability. Vinyl is a lower-maintenance option for properties where aesthetics and budget are the primary considerations. The right choice depends on your location, brand standards, and local permitting requirements. Our team will recommend the best option after evaluating your specific site.
Do you install automatic gates for restaurant service entrances and drive-throughs?
Yes. We install automated gate systems for service entrances, delivery areas, employee access points, and drive-through exit lanes. Options include slide gates, swing gates, and bi-fold configurations, with gate operators sized for commercial-frequency use. We also integrate access control systems depending on your security requirements.
Can you handle fencing repairs at existing restaurant locations?
Absolutely. Repair and maintenance work at active restaurant locations is a core part of what we do. We repair damaged gates, replace worn hardware, fix leaning or damaged fence sections, and perform on-site welding for metal repairs, all with scheduling coordinated around your operating hours to minimize disruption.
Are you licensed and insured for commercial restaurant fencing work?
Yes. Fencing By Wall is fully licensed, bonded, and insured for commercial fencing projects. We are also a member of the American Fence Association (AFA), which holds its members to defined standards of quality, safety, and professionalism. Certificates of insurance and documentation are available upon request for clients who require them for procurement or risk management purposes.
Do you work with franchise operators managing multiple restaurant locations?
Yes. We work with regional franchise operators and multi-site property managers to coordinate fencing projects across multiple locations. We can structure phased installation schedules to fit your budget cycle and operational requirements, and we’re experienced with the documentation and approval processes that franchise accounts typically require.
