Commercial & Industrial Fencing. Experience You Can Build On.
Fencing for general contractors, developers, businesses, institutions, and industrial facilities. We manufacture our own fence, build to your project’s plans and specifications, and install with our own crews. Every commercial project gets a dedicated project coordinator, from the first call to completion.

Every site fences for a different reason.
A commercial fence might control who comes and goes, protect equipment, keep people clear of a hazard, screen what shouldn’t be seen, or finish the look of a building. Before we price anything, we find out what yours has to do.

Commercial-grade materials. Built to project specifications.
Commercial fencing isn’t one product in a heavier size. A distribution center, a school, and a utility yard can each call for a different grade, structure, finish, and way of installing it.
On most commercial work, the project’s architect or engineer sets those requirements. Our job is to read them correctly and build to the approved documents, not to assume a standard residential product will do.
We manufacture our own aluminum and chain link, fabricate our own vinyl, and source premium cedar, so we control what goes into every fence we put in the ground.
What the specification usually decides
- Material and grade
- Posts and footings
- Height and infill
- Finish and coating
- Gates and hardware

Experienced with architectural plans, surveys, and construction documents.
Commercial fencing usually starts on paper. Before a post goes in, we review the drawings, survey, and specifications to confirm where the fence runs, where the property line sits, where gates and access points go, and what the installation details require.
When something needs clarifying, we work it out with the general contractor, architect, engineer, or project manager before it turns into a problem on site.
We work from

One dedicated contact, from your first call to project completion.
Commercial projects have a lot of moving parts. Instead of calling different departments or tracking down different people, you work with one Mae Fence commercial project coordinator who knows your project and stays with it to the end.
Our Commercial Fence Coordinator, Mason, is the person you’ll hear from on a commercial project, from the first conversation through the final walkthrough.

Safety-focused. Qualified for demanding commercial environments.
Working on an active commercial or industrial property means following its rules as well as our own. Mae Fence follows applicable OSHA standards, and our crews work within each site’s safety procedures and project-specific requirements.
We’ve completed the safety qualification required to sell and install fencing at Amazon facilities.
If your facility has its own contractor approval process, we’re prepared to work through it with you.
Licensed, bonded, and insured. Prepared for commercial requirements.
General contractors, developers, public agencies, and industrial facilities expect the paperwork before anyone sets foot on site. We keep our qualifications current and provide the documentation your approval process asks for.
$5,000,000
Up to $5 million in blanket umbrella liability coverage.
- Workers’ compensation
- We maintain workers’ compensation coverage for our crews.
- Licensing and bonding
- We hold the licenses and bonds required in the cities and municipalities where we currently work.
- Certificates of insurance
- We provide certificates of insurance and other insurance documentation on request.
- Background checks
- We’ll complete company or employee background checks when a project’s approval process requires them.
- Contractor qualification
- Some projects need documentation and approvals before work can begin. We work with you to provide them.
Prepared for prevailing wage projects.
Schools, municipal work, government facilities, and other publicly funded construction often require prevailing wages. Our pay practices meet applicable prevailing wage requirements on qualifying projects, and we coordinate with project administrators on the wage documentation they need.

A commercial fencing partner that understands construction.
On most commercial jobs, the fence is one scope among many. We plan our work around the approved plans, the project schedule, site conditions, and the trades working before and after us, and we keep the general contractor informed along the way.
Because we manufacture our own fence, the fencing scope stays with one company from our shop floor to the last post on your site. We understand where our work fits in the larger project, and what the people around us need from it.
We work alongside
- General contractors
- Developers
- Architects and engineers
- Project managers
- Facility managers
- Purchasing departments
- Government agencies
- Business owners
