Project: Black Metal Privacy Fence, Vancouver Backyard

This Vancouver backyard traded a weathered wood fence for a full black metal fencing system built for privacy and near-zero upkeep. The homeowner wanted a clean, solid boundary that blocked sightlines from the back lane and neighbouring lots, so we installed metal privacy fencing with a matching pedestrian gate. TJ Railing serves all of Metro Vancouver, and this job ran from tear-out to final gate hardware in just four working days.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

This Vancouver backyard traded a weathered wood fence for a full black metal fencing system built for privacy and near-zero upkeep. The homeowner wanted a clean, solid boundary that blocked sightlines from the back lane and neighbouring lots, so we installed metal privacy fencing with a matching pedestrian gate. TJ Railing serves all of Metro Vancouver, and this job ran from tear-out to final gate hardware in just four working days.

Project Snapshot

  • Project type: Metal privacy fence with pedestrian gate
  • Duration: 4 days
  • Approx. length: About 65 linear feet (roughly 20 metres), 6 ft high
  • Material: Powder-coated aluminum privacy panels, black
  • Location: Vancouver, BC (Metro Vancouver)
  • Starting price: From $85 per linear foot installed

The Starting Point

The original fence was aging pressure-treated wood with a lattice top. The boards were greying, warping, and losing their finish, and the open lattice no longer offered real privacy. On a tight urban lot with a shared back lane, the client needed something far more solid and far lower maintenance.

What We Installed

We removed the old wood structure and built a new metal privacy fence using black powder-coated aluminum panels with vertical board-style slats and no gaps. The run wraps the rear and side property lines in an L shape and ties into a matching swing gate for lane access. Powder-coated aluminum resists rust in the wet coastal climate and holds its finish without staining or repainting.

Why Metal Over Wood

Wood fencing in the Metro Vancouver climate needs regular sealing and still warps over time. A metal fencing system gives full screening with a flat, modern look and almost no upkeep. The black finish keeps the yard feeling open while completely blocking sightlines from the lane and neighbouring homes.

The Result

A crisp, private backyard with a durable boundary that should outlast wood by decades. Metal privacy fencing with TJ Railing starts from $85 per linear foot installed, with the final price set after an on-site measurement of length, height, gates, and access.
