Deer Fencing Boulder
Deer Fencing Near Boulder, Colorado
Keeping deer out of your yard or garden can be a frustrating battle. Their foraging and movements through properties can damage landscapes and vegetation that you’ve worked hard to cultivate and maintain.
Installing an effective deer fence provides a long-term solution to deter deer and protect your outdoor space.
Our fencing contractors have extensive experience with designing, building and installing deer fences that will keep deer off your property.
We use high quality materials and follow best practices to create customized barriers that are blends into the surrounding landscape.
A properly installed deer fence by our experts will go unnoticed while doing the important job of safely directing deer around the protected areas.
Process We Follow for Deer Fencing
Initial Consultation
The process starts when our deer fence contractor meets at your property to evaluate your landscape needs. We’ll discuss the areas you want protected from deer and factors like slope of the land, existing vegetation, entry points and deer trails. This allows us to design a customized fence solution for your unique situation.
Site Survey
Next, we will do a complete site survey and analysis. We map out the perimeter, document obstructions like trees, identify utilities that need to be avoided, and note drainage and irrigation components. Our experts also analyze deer movement patterns in the vicinity to optimize fence placement.
Fence Design and Material Selection
With the site information gathered, we will design the best deer fence layout for your property. There are many factors we consider:
- Height – Deer can jump up to 8 feet high, so sufficient height is important. We recommend 7-10 feet.
- Material – We use high-tensile steel wire or woven wire that will withstand impact. Wood, vinyl, chain link or aluminum can work too.
- Posts – Sturdy posts spaced 8-10 feet apart provide support. Wood, steel or iron posts are durable options.
- Gates – Convenient access points matched to the fencing material and height.
- Aesthetics – Choice of materials and placement to blend into surroundings.
This custom design will keep deer out while meeting your functional needs and aesthetic preferences.
Permitting
For some deer fence projects, planning department approval and permits may be required. We will complete the application and submit to the city on your behalf so the barriers meet relevant Boulder regulations.
Pre-Construction Preparation
Before installing the fence, we prep the site by marking layouts and property lines, removing vegetation along the perimeter, and installing fence post foundations. Prepping ensures proper fence placement and positioning on your land.
Fence Installation
Our crew takes the time to professionally install the deer fencing designed for your unique property. We dig precise post holes, set the posts, hang the fencing material and install gates. A focus on quality workmanship and safety makes for a long lasting fence.
Clean Up and Finishing Touches
Finally, we complete the deer fence project by cleaning up the site, removing all debris and finalizing the barrier with any additional visual enhancements you desire. Our goal is for you to enjoy a beautiful, deer-free yard and garden space.
Ongoing Maintenance
We want your deer fences to perform optimally for years. That’s why our services don’t end after installation. We provide fence repairs, adjustments, seasonal inspections and upgrades as needed so your barrier remains deer-proof over the long run.

FAQs About Deer Fencing in Boulder
How high should the fence be?
Deer can jump 8 feet high, so we recommend a minimum height of 8 feet but preferably 9-10 feet for better protection. The extra height provides a better visual deterrent as well.
What areas work best for deer fencing?
Any landscaped areas like gardens, lawns or yards near woods or trails can benefit. Fencing around the full perimeter of your property ensures complete protection.
What type of gates should I install?
Single gates for foot traffic and double driveway gates matching the fencing height and material are ideal for full control over entry points. Gates should be wide enough for equipment like lawn mowers.
Do I need a permit for deer fencing in Boulder?
If the deer fence exceeds 6 feet in height or will fully enclose over 4,000 square feet of land, a planning department permit is required. We handle the permit process for you.
How often will deer fence maintenance be needed?
We recommend an annual fence inspection and tuning up as needed. Repairs for any damage from falling trees or extreme weather is wise too. This upkeep ensures your fence keeps deer out year after year.
What should I know about deer fence installation?
Proper installation is key, from precise post hole digging and spacing to fence tensioning. This ensures the barrier won’t sag and provides long term stability. Our expert installers adhere to best practices.
How long does it take to install a deer fence?
The timeframe varies based on size and terrain. Most projects take 1-2 days with additional time for any permit approval. We schedule efficiently so your property is protected ASAP.
How can I make my deer fence more aesthetically pleasing?
Choose fence materials and colors that blend with your surroundings. Strategic placement behind existing vegetation also minimizes visibility. We consider aesthetics for every project.
What if I need to remove or reposition the fence later?
Our fences are designed for your exact space, but can be modified if needs change. We can remove posts and materials with minimal disruption or adjust layouts. Just let us know.
Will deer eventually stop trying to enter my yard?
With an 8-10 foot properly installed fence, deer will learn that your property is not accessible and give up. It may take a season or two for them to stop investigating entry.
