Fence Installation & Repair services in Wyandotte
Wyandotte sits right on the Detroit River, and the river shapes a lot of fence work here. Older streets near Biddle Avenue and the waterfront parks have big trees, tight side yards and houses that date back more than a century. Farther west, toward Fort Street, the lots are newer and plainer. Two things set Wyandotte apart for a fence. First, the city keeps fences out of the required front yard, apart from a short decorative fence in a few corner and alley cases. Second, side yard fences are held to 5 feet unless the lot meets the city's spacing rules for 6. So a Wyandotte back yard often ends up with a 6-foot privacy fence at the rear and a lower run down the sides. Wind off the river is a real load on a solid fence, which is why we size posts for it.

Permits and local rules
Wyandotte's fence ordinance (section 190.327) allows up to 6 feet in a rear yard and 5 feet in a side yard, with 6 feet allowed at the side only when the lot meets the spacing rules. No fence may go in a required front yard except a decorative fence of up to 4 feet in limited cases, and that fence cannot be chain link or solid and needs a site plan approved first. Barbed wire, razor wire and electric fences are banned outside industrial lots.
