Metal Fence Installation with Equinox Fence

Looking for a metal fence company in Boise, Idaho that you can actually count on? Plus, they endure the freeze-thaw cycles of our snowy winters.

We serve Boise and the Treasure Valley, including Eagle, Meridian, Kuna, Caldwell, Nampa, and even extending service to McCall. Our skilled team has years of hands-on experience for every project. We’ve built fences for homes in historic North End neighborhoods and secured perimeters near Micron Technology’s campus. We design every fence to withstand Idaho’s climate, including hot, dry summers that can cause cheaper fences to rust or warp.

How it works

From first call to finished job

  1. Step 1

    Initial Consultation

    We start by listening to your goals. We also factor in Boise’s clay soils, freeze-thaw cycles, and hot summers so your fence is designed to stay strong and attractive for decades.

  2. Step 2

    Site Assessment

    Our team visits your property to measure and evaluate the terrain. Boise neighborhoods range from flat lots to sloped yards, so we check soil type, frost depth, and drainage to ensure your posts are stable.

  3. Step 3

    Installation

    Our trained crews handle every step with precision—no subcontractors. From a family backyard near the Boise River Greenbelt to a commercial site in Garden City, every fence is built to last.

  4. Step 4

    Customization & Finishing Touches

    Finally, we add the details that make your fence yours—custom heights, decorative gates, ornamental designs, or powder-coated colors that match your property.

Reviews

What clients say

5.0

“With Equinox Fence, you will get professionals who are experienced in construction. The fences they installed on my farm help me sleep at night because I know my animals are safe. I appreciate their attention to detail, such as ordering special hardware that will last longer and adjustments that will help the fence adapt to the rise and fall of the soil. I'd give Equinox 10 stars if I could just for their communication alone. How great is it to have vendors call you back promptly, answer phone calls, and keep you posted on the timeline? I will always hire them for my fencing needs.”

Linda Haley

“Equinox did a great job with our project. From fencing to painting & staining, they tackled all of our requests and did so beautifully. Sean, Jeff, and the entire crew were hard-working, professional, and had a can-do attitude. I wouldn't hesitate to work with them again on future projects.”

Melissa Galli

“While gazing out our window, we ask ourselves, "What took us SO long to have this beautiful view of our gorgeous fence?" Those walking, jogging, taking their dog for a walk, comment to us that our fence is a favorite in their neighborhood walk. The Equinox crew paid attention to detail. Worked for perfection in the quality of their work. Showed creativity in their ideas for using materials from our old fence. Before they left, the construction site was spotless!”

FAQ

Metal Fence Installation: common questions

What are the fence setback rules near intersections in Boise?

Boise has “clear vision triangle” requirements that affect fence height and placement in front yards, especially near street corners. The rules vary between Boise city limits, Ada County, and different neighborhoods like the North End versus foothills areas. These regulations ensure driver visibility and public safety. Rather than navigating these complex municipal codes yourself, let Equinox handle the research and permitting—we’re familiar with the specific requirements for each area we serve and will make sure your fence meets all local standards from day one.

Do I need special permits for fencing in Boise's foothills?

Yes, if you’re in the Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) zones —particularly the north and northwest Boise Hills—there are specific wildlife protection requirements that restrict certain fence styles. Pointed pickets (even square ones) are prohibited in these areas due to wildlife impalement concerns. Before choosing your fence design, check the City of Boise’s Planning and Zoning interactive map to see if your property falls within the WUI overlay.

What types of fencing materials does Equinox Fence offer?

Equinox Fence provides a variety of fencing options for residential and commercial properties in the Treasure Valley. Our materials include premium cedar with steel posts for added durability, modern metal fencing, low-maintenance vinyl, practical chain links, and temporary fencing for construction sites or events. Each material is chosen for its strength and longevity in Idaho’s changing climate.

How long does fence installation take?

Most residential fence installations take 2-5 days after permits are approved and utilities are marked. Larger commercial projects or custom designs may take longer. Weather in Boise, Eagle, Meridian, and surrounding areas can affect scheduling. We provide a detailed timeline during your consultation and keep you updated throughout the process.

What sets Equinox Fence apart from other fencing companies?

Unlike many competitors, we have a dedicated team of skilled employees rather than subcontractors. Our signature steel post construction extends the life of wooden fences and prevents early failure. We offer a 5-year craftsmanship warranty and honor manufacturer warranties on materials.

Does Equinox Fence handle permits and utility marking?

Yes, we will work with you to complete all permit applications and utility markings in Boise, Eagle, Meridian, Kuna, McCall, Caldwell, and Nampa. We coordinate with local municipalities to secure permits and work with Idaho Dig Line to ensure safe installation. Our team handles these steps so you don’t have to worry about compliance or safety concerns.
