At Northland Fence, we believe a fence should enhance your property’s security and curb appeal—not become an expensive, high-maintenance regret. That’s why we offer top-tier ornamental steel, vinyl, and black chain link fencing designed to last for decades. Some companies still push warping, rotting wood fences or flimsy, dent-prone aluminum fencing, but we know better. Wood may start out looking great, but give it a few brutal Minnesota winters, and you’ll be dealing with splinters, sagging boards, and endless repairs. As for cheap aluminum? One storm, a stray baseball, or even a strong gust of wind can leave it bent and battered. We also retired galvanized chain link fencing years ago—just like many HOAs did. Let’s be honest: while it was once the standard, it’s now an eyesore. If you’re matching an existing galvanized fence, that’s understandable. But when the neighbors upgrade, do you really want to be the last house on the block with a dull, rusting relic? Instead, our sleek black chain link fences provide a modern, HOA-friendly alternative that blends seamlessly into any landscape. At Northland Fence, we stand by quality, durability, and craftsmanship. No subcontractors. No cheap materials. No gimmicks. Just expert fence installation backed by industry-leading warranties and financing options to fit any budget. When it’s time to invest in a fence, don’t settle for something that will become a neighborhood eyesore. Choose Northland Fence—where quality meets longevity, and style never takes a backseat to function.
"I will be recommending Northland Fence to everyone! From the first phone call I made with Josalyn, Rachel and Brittany to the building team Larissa, Michael, Cooper, Jaxson and Josh they were BEYOND professional, nice, prompt, respectful and hardworking. Our fence is perfect and everything we wanted. Whoever is in charge is VERY lucky to have people and a team like this. Outstanding! It’s hard to find good workers and people now a days and this team is special. Thank you Northland Fence team for really completing our forever home and just being all around great. 10/10 experience!"

"Issues with new window leak after they replaced siding. Took over a year from my initial notification of the new leak for them to remove siding and investigate problem. They said old leak and exterior wall damaged from leak. Not sure how their crew hung the house siding if the wall was wet like they said. They said they would give us a bid to repair and no follow up for 2 months. Left a piece of siding off my house that whole time. Do not recommend."

I mainly work on my own but do have two good hired hands to help on jobs as well. Depending on the work that is to be done, I either give a estimate or we can go by the hour, which ever is more cost effective for my customer.

Installing a fence for a standard residential project takes two to four days. This timeline includes obtaining permits, preparing terrain, and coordinating labor and materials. A 150‑linear foot installation focuses on proper alignment and secure post placement. Factors such as your fence height, ground slope, and material type can add time to ensure a safe and durable structure.
Wood panels, steel, aluminum, and vinyl fences are some of the easiest to install, thanks to their pre-made sections and simple assembly. The process is fairly straightforward, with clear instructions and minimal customization, especially on flat, prepared ground. Choosing one of these options can make setting up a fence quick and hassle-free.
A fence’s lifespan depends on its material. Vinyl fences typically last 20 to 30 years, while aluminum can endure up to 50 years. Wood fences last about five to 10 years with proper care, and wrought iron can remain strong for generations with regular upkeep. Chain-link and barbed wire fences tend to corrode faster, reducing their durability. No matter the material, routing maintenance helps extend a fence’s lifespan.
You’re not legally required to notify your neighbors before building a fence, but it’s a good idea to do so. Clear communication helps maintain good relationships and can help prevent disputes down the line. To avoid any issues, verify your property boundaries with an official survey and ensure the fence stays within your property lines.
The ideal fence height depends on its purpose. Standard privacy fences are six to eight feet tall to block views and add security, while decorative front yard fences are around three feet. Livestock fences range from three to six feet, depending on the animals they enclose. Always check local building codes to ensure compliance.
