fences that look authentic
Residential Fencing in Highland Park, IL
A fence does a lot of work on a residential property such as creating privacy, protecting children and pets, enhancing curb appeal, and helping to define the character of your outdoor space. In Highland Park, where mature trees, sloped lots, and HOA guidelines are all part of the equation, getting the installation right requires local experience and careful planning.
We offer a full range of residential fencing materials and styles, including:
A timeless choice that works well with Highland Park’s wooded, natural aesthetic. Cedar and pressure-treated options available in privacy, picket, and split-rail styles.
Low maintenance, weather-resistant, and available in privacy and decorative styles. Vinyl holds up well through Chicago area winters without the upkeep that wood requires.
An elegant, rust-free option for front yards, pool surrounds, and decorative boundaries where appearance matters as much as function.
Combines the look of wood with the durability of modern materials. A strong pick for homeowners who want natural aesthetics without the maintenance schedule.
Practical and durable for side yards, dog runs, and utility areas. We also offer custom steel and ornamental iron for a more finished look.
A necessity for many Highland Park properties backing up to green space or nature preserves. Tall, discreet, and built to keep wildlife out without disrupting sightlines.
Custom-built enclosures designed to keep your dog safely contained with secure latching, appropriate height, and proper ground coverage.
We install single and double gates, driveway gates, and automated entry systems designed for smooth daily use and long-term reliability.
For properties that call for something beyond standard profiles, our team designs and fabricates custom fencing that fits the architecture and character of your home.
Every residential installation starts with a site visit. We walk the property, take measurements, discuss your goals, and factor in any permit or HOA requirements before recommending a solution. The goal is a fence that fits your home, not a generic product pushed onto your yard.

Why Highland Park Properties Choose Fencing By Wall
There’s no shortage of fence contractors serving the Chicago area. What separates Fencing By Wall is a track record built over decades of consistent work in communities like Highland Park where neighbors talk, HOA boards pay attention, and a fence in poor shape reflects on the homeowner.
Founded by Jim Wall and now operated by his son Mike, Fencing By Wall brings multigenerational experience and genuine accountability to every job.
We know local soil conditions, permit offices, common HOA fence guidelines, and the weather patterns that challenge fencing materials in this region. That knowledge shows in the quality of our installations.
We provide honest estimates, clear timelines, and straightforward communication throughout the project. If something changes, we tell you before we proceed.
From residential wood fencing to commercial gate automation to on-site welding, we handle the full scope in-house. You won’t get bounced between subcontractors.
AFA membership reflects our commitment to industry standards, ongoing training, and ethical business practices, a baseline that not every fence company in the area meets.
what we do
How the Process Works
We keep the process simple and transparent from first contact to final walkthrough.
We schedule an on-site visit to walk your property, assess the layout, discuss your goals, and identify any challenges such as grade changes, access points, utility lines, or permit requirements. Nothing is estimated remotely or guessed at.
Based on what we see on-site, we walk you through your options including materials, styles, heights, gate placements, and any custom elements. We make a clear recommendation based on your goals and budget, not on what carries the highest margin.
Our crew handles every aspect of the installation with precision, proper post depth and setting, correct alignment, secure panel attachment, and clean gate operation. We keep the site organized and communicate if anything unexpected comes up mid-project.
Before we leave, we walk the completed fence with you. We check alignment, gate function, and overall finish. If anything doesn’t meet your expectations, we address it before the job is closed out.
