Every fence is priced for the property it goes on: the length of the line, the height, the gates, the ground, and what has to come out first. The ranges below are a ballpark for a professional installation in our area, not a quote. For an exact number we walk the fence line with you and send a written estimate.
These numbers assume the fence is built to last: posts set deep in concrete, hardware that won't rust out, and construction that holds up to Montgomery County's sandy-over-clay soil, humidity, and storms. If a price comes in well under the low end, it's worth asking what was left out.
| Material | Typical range (per linear foot, installed) |
|---|---|
| Chain link | $15–$40 |
| Pressure-treated pine | $25–$35 |
| Cedar | $30–$47 |
| Vinyl | $25–$70 (3-rail from about $25–$30; privacy panels from about $50) |
| Aluminum | $40–$75 |
| Steel | $50–$85 |
| Composite / Trex | $100–$175+ |
| Farm & ranch (field, no-climb, barbed wire) | Varies widely with acreage and terrain; priced at a site visit |
What's in every wood fence we build
Cedar and pressure-treated pine fences from 76 Fence of Magnolia include:
- Three rails instead of two, for strength and fewer warped pickets
- A rot board along the bottom (6″ standard; taller if you want it)
- Posts set at least 24″ deep with 80 lb of concrete per post, and deeper or wider in loose sand or wet ground
- Simpson brackets where rails meet posts, instead of toe-nailed joints
- Hot-dipped galvanized ring-shank nails
These details are a big part of where our prices start. Rails pulling away from posts is one of the first failures on a cheaply built fence, and nails that back out or corrode leave rust streaks down the boards. Spending a little more up front saves repairs later.
What affects your price
- Total linear footage and fence height
- Material grade: wood species, metal and wire gauge, panel style
- Number and width of gates, and any automatic openers
- Slope, trees and roots, clearing, and equipment access
- Tear-out and haul-off of an existing fence
- HOA requirements or permits, where they apply
About the low-ball quote
If one estimate is far below the others, ask why. Quality lumber, metal, and concrete cost what they cost, and so does a crew that sets posts correctly. A much cheaper bid often means fewer rails, less concrete, thinner material, or a contractor who won't be around when the gate needs adjusting after the posts settle.
Ask every contractor the same questions: how deep are the posts, how much concrete goes in each hole, how are rails attached, and what does the warranty cover? Our workmanship warranty and process pages show our answers.
