Conditions first
Split between flat lots and hillside parcels where grade changes force stepped construction. We inspect boundary location, grade changes, gate clearance, post conditions, and daily access before defining the scope.
We build custom fences and gates in wood, composite and metal, designed around the architecture, privacy and daily access.

We build fences and gates in Studio City, including Colfax Meadows, Silver Triangle, Fryman Canyon approach, Woodbridge. Every project starts with a written agreement that spells out the scope. Call (818) 747-4020 to request an estimate.
Above Ventura the fence has to solve grade before it solves privacy: stepped panels, deeper uphill footings, and a top line that reads level from the street even when the ground is not. Steep driveways usually push the gate from swing to slide.
From flat streets south of Ventura up into the hillside blocks, with a strong design expectation on anything street-facing. Split between flat lots and hillside parcels where grade changes force stepped construction.

This example documents railing work. A new privacy fence or gate request needs a separate review of the boundary, grade, opening width, access and adjoining structures.
For a new railing project, the written scope should identify the surfaces and connections to be assessed, the proposed layout, and who is responsible for any required design or approvals.
An estimate starts with the actual parcel. We do not treat citywide guidance as approval for a specific address.

Fency repaired my fence and built and installed two new sliding gates. I really appreciate the excellent craftsmanship and the fair price. Most importantly, Jonathan oversaw the project with attention to detail and to my requests through to project completion.
Jonathan and his team did an amazing job with our new front yard fence driveway and pedestrian gates. They were professional. They were active. The fence is beautiful. It’s been enough of the envy of our neighborhood that we’ve received repeated request for contact information from Jonathan. We hope to see more of the same in our neighborhood as it’s really aesthetically pleasing cannot recommend him in his crew more highly. We hope to work with them again in the future as no needs arise thank you so much guys
