Residential · Montgomery, AL
A wood fence should stand straight, latch clean, and shed water year after year. Frontier Fences Montgomery has served homeowners and businesses since 2018 with wood fence installation and repair in Montgomery, from full replacements to storm and rot fixes.
Good wood fence work starts below grade. We verify property lines and gate clearances, call in utility locates, then lay out post spacing for the style you choose (privacy, board-on-board, shadowbox, picket, or horizontal). Posts are set plumb on string lines using an auger, then seated on compacted gravel with concrete for a stable footing, with typical spacing around 8 feet on center unless design or wind load calls for tighter. Rails and panels are fastened with exterior-rated nails or structural screws, and we build gates with proper bracing and heavy-duty hinges so they do not sag.
Montgomery heat, humidity, termites, and sudden downpours are hard on wood, so species and finish matter. We install pressure-treated pine for most privacy fences, and can quote cedar or cypress when you want higher natural rot resistance and a different look. For longer life, we keep pickets off grade, slope or cap the top to shed water, and use hot-dipped galvanized or stainless fasteners where needed to reduce rust streaks. After installation or repair, we can prep and apply stain or sealer, and we will walk you through maintenance timing so your wood fence stays sealed and boards stay tight.
Customers choose Frontier Fences Montgomery because we do the details that keep a wood fence looking straight after the first season. We show up with the right equipment, including post-hole augers, levels, string lines, and concrete mixing tools, and we do not shortcut post depth or gate framing. You get clear options on picket width, rail count, post size, and cap and trim packages, with straightforward pricing and a written scope. We are licensed and insured, and we keep the jobsite tidy and safe around kids, pets, and customers coming and going.
At the end, we do a full walkthrough with you and test every gate for swing, latch alignment, and smooth closure. You receive a clean finished fence line, hardware that fits and functions, and a punch list completed before we call the job done. For repairs, we match existing style and spacing when possible, replace rotted rails or leaning posts, and re-hang gates to restore proper reveal and latch tension. You also get care guidance on staining, sealing, and routine checks so your wood fence delivers long-term value.

Yes. We provide a free written estimate after an on-site measure so footage, gates, and site conditions are accounted for.
Many residential projects can be completed in 1-3 days once materials are on hand, depending on footage, number of gates, and grade changes. We give a realistic schedule in your estimate.
Pressure-treated wood privacy fencing, galvanized chain-link, and powder-coated aluminum are the most common. We also handle walk gates, driveway gates, and repairs for all three.
Usually. We evaluate post spacing, height, picket style or chain-link fabric, and hardware so the new section ties in cleanly, then recommend the closest material match available.
If your wood fence is leaning, rotting at the bottom, or dragging at the gate, the fix usually comes down to structure and water management. Frontier Fences Montgomery builds and repairs wood fence systems that stay plumb, latch properly, and hold up to Alabama humidity. We handle new installations, replacements, and targeted repairs, including post resets, rail and picket replacement, and gate rebuilds for residential and light commercial properties.
A quality wood fence starts with layout and a stable base. We confirm runs, corners, and transitions, then set posts on string lines for straight panels and consistent reveals. When repairing, we diagnose the root cause first, such as a failed post, undermined footing, rusted hardware, or repeated standing water. That approach keeps you from paying for cosmetic patchwork that fails again after the next storm.
For new builds, we can construct common styles like 6-foot privacy, board-on-board, shadowbox, traditional picket, and modern horizontal. We can add enhancements such as cap and trim, rot boards, and heavy-duty gate hardware, and we will recommend fastener and finish options that fit your budget and maintenance goals. For repairs, we can replace sections, straighten runs, rebuild gates, and swap damaged boards while keeping the fence looking uniform.
