About the Local Business
Evanston Fencing Co. provides residential and commercial fence installation services in Chicago, IL, and the surrounding suburbs. Based in Evanston, we serve clients from Rogers Park to Lincoln Park and as far south as Hyde Park. Our team installs a full range of fencing options, including traditional wood picket fences, privacy screens, wrought-iron gates, and industrial chain-link systems. We understand Chicago’s unique climate challenges, especially gate hardware freezing in winter and the gradual wear of aging fence systems. For local residents, we use cold-weather lubricants and corrosion-resistant hinges to keep gates operating smoothly through January freezes. We also reinforce older fence posts and rails to extend the life of existing structures, saving homeowners from premature replacement. Whether you need a new fence for a backyard near the Lakefront Trail or a secure perimeter for a commercial property in the Loop, we tailor each project to the site’s conditions. Our goal is to deliver durable, functional fencing that fits Chicago’s architecture and weather.

Q&A
What types of fences do you install for residential properties in Chicago?
We install wood picket fences, privacy fences, vinyl panels, wrought-iron gates, and chain-link fencing for homes in Chicago and nearby suburbs. Each option can be customized for height, style, and gate placement to match your property’s needs.
How do you prevent gate hardware from freezing during Chicago winters?
We use stainless steel or brass hinges and latches that resist corrosion, and we apply cold-weather lubricants during installation. For existing gates, we can retrofit hardware with freeze-resistant components and advise on seasonal maintenance to keep gates operating smoothly.
Can you repair aging fence systems in neighborhoods like Lincoln Park or Rogers Park?
Yes. We reinforce sagging gates, replace rotted posts, and tighten loose panels for older wood, metal, and chain-link fences. We also adjust gates that have settled due to frost heave, common in Chicago’s clay soil, to restore proper alignment and function.
