A Class Fencing in Calgary

Calgary is the heart of our service area. A Class Fencing has built fences in every quadrant of the city — NW, NE, SW, and SE — and in nearly every neighborhood, from established communities like Bowness, Mount Pleasant, and Lakeview to newer subdivisions in Mahogany, Auburn Bay, Cranston, Walden, Aspen Woods, Tuscany, Sage Hill, and Evanston. Calgary residential lots vary widely: tight inner-city lanes, deep pie lots in the suburbs, walk-out hillside builds in the southwest, and large back-onto-park lots that need both privacy and curb appeal. We build the fence to suit the lot, not the other way around.

Calgary's climate is unforgiving on fences. The city sits at over 1,000 metres of elevation, gets more sunny days than almost any major Canadian city, and swings from –30°C deep freezes to +30°C summer afternoons — sometimes within the same week thanks to chinooks. That kind of freeze-thaw cycling destroys fences that aren't built right. A Class Fencing sets every post in concrete below the 36-inch frost line, uses pressure-treated lumber and galvanized hardware on every install, and chooses materials (cedar, vinyl, chain link) graded for Alberta UV and wind exposure.

Calgary also has specific permitting and bylaw requirements. Fences over 1.85 m on a residential property line require a development permit through the City of Calgary. Corner lots, properties on laneways, and properties backing onto public pathways have additional setback rules. A Class Fencing handles the permit application, the Alberta One-Call utility locate, and the City inspection process so you don't have to. We've built fences across many Calgary properties and we know which neighborhoods have which rules.
