All of our fence craftsmen are skilled, full-time employees of Anvil Fence Company.
Fences must stand up to Boise Idaho's high winds, harsh weather, and physical abuse from animals, kids, gardeners, and neighbors. Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to decide on the fence you want to protect and beautify your home and the people you care about.

Here is a basic guideline that we use to help people get started making the best selection:
Every local municipality has a separate set of requirements when it comes to building permits, and that includes residential fencing. Sometimes the specific height of the fence or placement of the fence or purpose of the fence can impact the need for a permit. There also are HOA considerations in some neighborhoods.
The best way to get specific answers quickly and accurately is to simply call your town building code office.

Fencing is one of the easiest industries to "get into" for start-up businesses and novice laborers. For these people, who are looking to make a few extra dollars installing fences, a shovel, a level, and a string line may be all they need.
As a result, many individuals and/or companies show up in Boise Idaho, install residential fences for a short time, then disappear. We see it all the time. Beware! You only want to work with a fully licensed and insured fencing contractor in Boise Idaho.
Here are some of the main pitfalls of working with non-professionals:
The Residential Fence Warranty is Void
If the individual or company that installed your residential fence isn't still around, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly, which is very common with non-professionals.
The Fence Almost Certainly Won't Last As Long
As a professional fencing contractor, our team of installers undergoes rigorous training and constant professional supervision. We are dedicated to improving our knowledge and skills of the best fencing materials and the best fence installation techniques to maximize the strength and life of your fence. Companies that simply install fences as something they do "on the side" usually have no idea how much they don't know about residential fencing and what is best for you and your property.
It Puts Your Property at Risk
Installing residential fences in the Boise Idaho area is somewhat risky. Sudden, harsh weather during the installation of a fence can blow materials - damaging your home. We've seen concrete splatter up onto cars or drip down beautiful driveways or walkways as buckets of wet concrete are transported. Deep tire tracks sinking into your grass is another common issue. The secondary damage to homes and yards while installing fences by untrained labor is a very common thing.
Additionally, anyone hurt on your property while they are working puts you at risk! If you hire an unlicensed or uninsured contractor you may be liable and your homeowner's insurance may deny payment!
At first glance, hiring a novice to install your fence may appear to save you a few dollars, but in the long run, it is almost certainly a price that you simply cannot afford to pay!

DIY Fence Estimate
If you'd like to get a rough idea on your own about how much fencing you will need, follow these easy steps:
Caution!
Fencing is often priced and sold by SECTIONS, not by linear feet! Even when the linear footage is included specifically on price estimates … the total number of sections is a factor in this pricing. So, “price per linear foot” is only a rough estimate and rarely represents the actual cost of the finished fence!
This is a very interesting difference that we would love to explore and explain to you if you'd like to speak with one of our commercial fence experts further. Be aware, “price per linear foot” is a ploy that many unprofessional fence installers in the Boise Idaho area use!
Yes! We are a trusted commercial fencing contractor across the entire Boise Idaho area.

Our crews are specially trained in the latest techniques in commercial fence installation - ensuring your fence is installed properly so it will look great, function properly, and will hold up to the unique demands of commercial applications and the harsh weather typical of Boise Idaho.
Fence placement is ultimately the responsibility of you, the customer. Moving a fence after it's already been installed can be costly, so it's never a bad idea to get a survey to be safe. In many cases, the property lines are clear and well-marked and installing your fence can be done without an official survey. However, some municipalities do require it, so be sure to check!
Simply contact us to speak with one of our fence experts to get the process started. We'll ask you a few simple questions and collect your contact information and your property address.
From there, we will schedule an appointment to walk your property, take measurements and to check for obstructions and anything else that would impact the installation of your fence.
We make the process very easy. That is why so many of your friends and fellow business owners across Boise Idaho trust Anvil Fence Company for their commercial fencing needs!
There are many small fence companies in Boise Idaho that list commercial fencing as one of their services. If you have a very small commercial fencing project, then a fence company that typically does mostly residential fencing is probably qualified for the job. Otherwise, be sure to stick with a company that is equipped and specially trained for commercial fence projects.
Also be sure to choose a reliable fence company that has been around. Here are some of the most common pitfalls of using an unreliable, unlicensed, or uninsured commercial fencing contractor:
The commercial Fence Warranty is Void
If the company that installed your commercial fence isn't still in business down the road, the workmanship warranty on the fence and the gates is worthless. Additionally, some manufacturers won't warranty their fence material if it was damaged during installation or installed improperly - which is fairly common.

There are many small fence companies in Boise Idaho that install aluminum fencing.

Yes! We are a leading chain link fencing contractor across the entire Boise Idaho area.
Our crews are experienced and specially trained in the latest techniques for installing chain link fences, ensuring your fence is installed properly, will look great, function properly, and will hold up to the harsh weather typical of Boise Idaho.
Chain link fencing is a popular option for homes and businesses in the Boise Idaho region. Chain link fences are strong yet lightweight. Together with their galvanized coating, chain link fences easily stand-up to the harsh weather conditions of Boise Idaho while also resisting rust and corrosion.
If a durable, reliable fence is what you want, look no further than chain link fencing.
Chain link fences are very durable! Chain link fencing is more than strong enough and durable enough to protect your home or business while standing strong in the face of the Boise Idaho weather. Typical physical abuse from falling limbs, landscapers, kids, animals, neighbors, and more is usually no problem for our professional-quality chain link fencing.
If you choose a colored PVC coating, which also beautifies the fence, the added corrosion protection will extend the life of your chain link fence for many additional years!
Prices on chain link fences are highly dependent on the amount of fencing you need as well as the exact style, height, and options you select.
We provide chain link fencing quotes for free! Simply reach out to our team through our online form or give us a call and our team of friendly, experienced staff will be glad to walk you through the process and plan a consultation.
Important!
We encourage you to speak with one of our fence experts before focusing solely on price! There are cheaper, very poor quality chain link brands available that are not nearly as durable, don't have the same quality corrosion protection, and have limited (if any) warranty. We don't use them.
There are also very inexperienced and unprofessional fence installers who continually cut corners and don't stand behind their work, regardless of what their so-called warranty says.
Chain link fences must stand up to the physical demands of the Boise Idaho weather, and physical abuse from falling branches, landscapers, neighbors, animals, and more.
Shopping for the cheapest fence is usually not the best way to make a decision about the fence you want to protect and beautify your property.
Chain link fences require very little maintenance. Our professional quality chain link fencing has been factory treated to prevent rust and corrosion, and can be further enhanced with protective colored vinyl coating.
We recommend clearing debris away from the bottom of the fence and maybe a quick squirt of the hose every once in a while. Chain link fencing requires almost no attention or maintenance.
Many homes and businesses in the Boise area have the mixed material system installed on their property. They're a popular choice among our Boise Idaho customers because they are long-lasting, fully customizable, and need little upkeep while providing protection, privacy, and aesthetically pleasing addition to any property.
The framework of the mixed material fence is made of powder-coated aluminum. The powder coating gives the aluminum its characteristic black color and ensures that the aluminum is water-proof and rust-resistant, making it great for the Boise Idaho area.
It sure will! The mixed material fence framework is rackable, meaning that it can be adjusted to accommodate sloped grades of land.
Mixed material fence rail systems are designed to be used with both wood and vinyl infill options so you can create the exact look you want.
Definitely! Our mixed material fence system is popular due to the privacy it provides in certain installations. Depending on the infill you choose, you can have full privacy, partial privacy, or an open concept. Consider your privacy requirements and choose the right infill material from the options available on the market.
The mixed material fence system itself needs almost no upkeep. If having a low-maintenance fence is a priority, choose an infill material that also needs only minor maintenance, like vinyl. With the right choice of infill, your new fence just has to be washed occasionally to look great for many years to come.

With their durability and long-lasting design, ornamental iron fences are a great choice for many residential and commercial properties across the Boise Idaho area and beyond. The variety of styles, colors, and decorative options make ornamental iron a versatile option that can accommodate many fencing requirements.
One of the most appealing aspects of ornamental iron fences is their resistance to rust and corrosion. The metal's engineering and the protective coating it comes with help assure a long-lasting product with minimal maintenance and no peeling or chipping. You can also have peace of mind thanks to the manufacturer's warranty, which protects your fence.
Another great benefit to using ornamental iron is that it is recyclable and can be put to use for something else. You will likely never need to replace your ornamental iron fence and they can last for decades. The material is easily recyclable and reusable and can be easily melted down and repurposed. So, the chance that your metal fence will end up in a landfill is very low.
Ornamental iron fences hold up well to all weather types, including rain and snow. Plus, ornamental iron fences are pest-resistant. You won't need to worry about termites or other insects gnawing on its parts. They also won't warp or fade due to water or excessive sun exposure.
You can expect an ornamental fence in the Boise Idaho area are made to last a lifetime! It is not surprising that ironwork from the past has endured for so long given the sturdy, resilient metal it is made from. The durability of your ornamental iron fence is affected by a number of variables, including the climate, maintenance, and protective coating, but despite these, you can be confident that your fence will last for a very long time.
Ornamental iron fencing needs very little maintenance over its lifetime at your Boise Idaho property. For the most part, all you need is water and a cleaning liquid to keep your fences in pristine condition. Being proactive is the best way to make sure your fence will last without any issues by not planting bushes too close to your fence and avoiding damaging your fence with lawn tools. Other than a rinse every now and then, your ornamental iron fence should need no major cleaning or repairs, and you'll also receive a manufacturer's warranty that should cover major problems for your peace of mind.
Yes, they do!
Our vinyl fences have impressive warranties directly from the manufacturer. Depending on the specific options you choose, many of them come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty, ensuring that all vinyl fencing materials will be free from manufacturing defects for the entire duration of the warranty period.
