Privacy Fences for River Valley Homes

Many homeowners want a private backyard: block views from neighbors or the street, keep kids and pets in, and cut wind and dust. ACE Fence Company Inc., family-owned in Fort Smith since 1963, installs privacy fences for homeowners and HOAs in Fort Smith, Van Buren, Greenwood, Alma, Barling and Lavaca, Arkansas, and Poteau, Roland, Arkoma, Sallisaw and Muldrow, Oklahoma. Six- and eight-foot heights are available where local rules allow. We review your yard, property lines and goals before recommending a layout.

Privacy Fence Styles and Materials

Compare materials, appearance and upkeep with samples during a free on-site estimate.

  • Cedar wood: Overlapping board-on-board planks help prevent gaps as wood shrinks and swells. Horizontal layouts and standard picket tops offer other looks. See cedar wood fence installation and our horizontal board-on-board guide.
  • Vinyl privacy: Solid panels need no painting or staining; wash them as needed. See vinyl fencing.
  • Composite: A wood-like appearance with resistance to rot and insects. Learn about composite fencing.
  • Ornamental iron with privacy inserts: Add screening to decorative metal fencing. Browse ornamental fencing.
  • Privacy windscreens: Attach screens to chain link or temporary fence panels. Explore chain link fencing.

Choosing the Right Privacy Fence

Consider the look and budget you prefer, along with upkeep. Cedar is natural and can be stained, but needs periodic sealing or staining; vinyl avoids painting and is easy to wash. Wind, storms, slopes and uneven ground can affect layout. Think about views from neighbors’ windows and the street, and check HOA limits on height, material, color and placement.

For a side-by-side look at materials, read our privacy fence options guide and wood vs. vinyl comparison. We can use your priorities and site conditions to narrow the choices.

Gates, Permits and Property Lines

Privacy layouts often need a walk gate for everyday access and a wider drive gate for lawn equipment. We can plan both with the fence; see custom gates and access control. Fences over six feet typically need a permit, and front-yard fences may face stricter height limits. ACE coordinates permits where required. Review the Fort Smith fence permit guide and confirm current rules with your local authority.

If a fence will sit on a shared property line, Arkansas treats it as a partition fence where both neighbors benefit. Talk with your neighbor and confirm the property line before work begins. Our fence estimate preparation guide can help you get ready for that conversation and the site visit.
