The Acreage · PVC, Aluminum, Wood & Chain Link · Free Estimates
"The Acreage is a great market for us — large lots, minimal HOA complications, homeowners who know what they want, and a straightforward permit path through the Palm Beach County Building Division. Our crew handles the additional linear footage that large-lot properties require, and we design for the semi-rural character of the community."
We've Worked in Your Neighborhood
The Acreage is a large unincorporated rural residential community in western Palm Beach County with predominantly large-lot properties, minimal HOA restrictions, and a semi-rural character. It is one of the most active markets for chain link, wood, and functional perimeter fencing in the county. XL Fencing holds Palm Beach County license 20-F-22100-R and serves The Acreage with both decorative and functional fence installations.
"The Acreage is a rural residential community where large lots and low density create a very different fence profile than the coastal or suburban markets. Chain link perimeter fencing, wood privacy, and functional installations are all common here alongside standard residential PVC and aluminum. No HOA restrictions on most properties — the county building department is the only permit step. That simplicity is refreshing, and we move efficiently in this market."
— XL Fencing Team · The Acreage, FL
🌳 Large-Lot Rural Residential Properties
The Acreage properties are large — often an acre or more — and require more linear footage and more complex site planning than standard suburban lots. We handle the full scope from design through installation.
🔗 Chain Link & Functional Fencing
Chain link perimeter fencing is one of the most common fence types in The Acreage. We install galvanized and vinyl-coated chain link systems in heights from 4 to 8 feet for any application.
📋 Palm Beach County Permits
The Acreage goes through the Palm Beach County Building Division for all fence permits. We handle the application and inspection process so you don't have to deal with the county building department.

Why The Acreage Fencing Is Different
Every city in South Florida has its own rules, its own HOA landscape, and its own climate realities. Here's what matters most in The Acreage.
-
Strictest Product Approval Requirements in Our Service Area
The Acreage requires hurricane-rated Florida Product Approvals for all fence materials. If a contractor is quoting you without mentioning NOA requirements, they either don't know the code or plan to skip it. We don't skip it.
-
Corner Lot Rules Are Specific
The Acreage allows 6-foot fencing on corner lots only if set back 5 feet from the street-side line with a shrub buffer maintained. We document this correctly in every corner-lot permit — it's one of the most commonly missed requirements in this city.
-
HOA Density Is Extremely High
Southern Blvd corridor, Seminole Pratt Whitney Road area, Northern Acreage, Southern Acreage — each has its own architectural review on top of city code. We prepare your complete HOA documentation package and coordinate both processes so your project doesn't stall at either stage.
We measure, answer your questions, and give you a clear written quote. No pressure. No obligation.

What to Ask Any South Florida Fence Contractor
Not all fence companies operating in South Florida are licensed in Florida, familiar with local permit requirements, or sourcing from manufacturers with real warranty programs. Before signing anything, ask these questions.
Reviews from Nashville, Boise, or Raleigh don't tell you anything about how a company performs in Broward or Palm Beach County. Ask specifically about local experience.
Broward and Palm Beach County have specific inspection requirements — including post-hole inspections — that out-of-area contractors routinely miss. Ask who pulls the permit and handles inspections.
A contractor's verbal promise is not the same as a written manufacturer's warranty. Ask for the warranty document before signing. PVC and aluminum should come with written lifetime warranties.
In HOA communities, architectural committee approval is required before the county permit. Contractors who don't know this will start your job in the wrong order and cause delays or violations.
