1213 N 32nd St, Fort Smith, AR 72904
About the Local Business
Since 1980, The Fence Man has been Fort Smith's trusted source for fences and gates. As a locally owned and operated company, we pride ourselves on sourcing materials from nearby suppliers to support our community. We offer a wide range of materials—wood, chain link, vinyl, iron, and aluminum—for both residential and commercial projects. Our services include installation, repair, painting, staining, weatherproofing, and automatic gate systems. Licensed and insured in Arkansas and Oklahoma, we understand the unique challenges of Fort Smith's weather. Strong winds often damage privacy fences, so we use reinforced posts and impact-resistant materials to ensure longevity. Chain link fences, common in areas like Chaffee Crossing, frequently need repairs from weather or impacts—we handle those quickly. Whether you're near the historic downtown or the Arkansas River, we provide quality craftsmanship with a focus on durability and customer satisfaction.
FAQs
How do you protect privacy fences from wind damage in Fort Smith?
Wind damage is common here, especially along the river. We reinforce privacy fences with thicker posts, deeper concrete footings, and wind-rated fasteners. For new installations, we recommend board-on-board or shadowbox styles that allow air flow while maintaining privacy. For existing fences, we can add bracing or replace damaged sections with stronger materials.
Can you repair a chain link fence that got knocked down by a storm?
Absolutely. We can replace sagging or torn fabric, straighten bent posts, and set new tension bars. If the damage is extensive, we offer full replacement with heavier gauge mesh. We serve all of Fort Smith, including the Chaffee Crossing area, and typically complete repairs within a few days.
Do you install automatic gates for commercial properties?
Yes, we install automatic gate systems for both residential and commercial clients. We work with brands like LiftMaster and offer sliding, swing, and cantilever gates. Our team handles wiring, sensor installation, and remote access setup. We ensure compliance with local safety codes, including those in historic districts.
