Chantilly, VA
Chantilly blends estate lots with subdivision streets, and Super Fabrications builds for both — ranch rail and deer fencing at the edges, vinyl and wood privacy in the courts, black aluminum everywhere in between. We work across Fairfax County as a VA Class A contractor, with free on-site estimates and permits handled before the first post.
Fence installation in Chantilly
Chantilly's western edges still run rural: long frontages, paddocks, and garden plots where black ranch rail and deer netting do the work of keeping horses in and deer out. Move a mile east and the subdivisions take over — vinyl privacy on rear lines, association-approved styles and colors, and four-foot open aluminum across the frontages where the covenants want sight lines kept.
Between the two sit the estate streets, where ornamental iron and black aluminum frame long drives and gates do real work. Automated driveway gates with LiftMaster operators suit the deep lots, solar panels cover the ones far from power, and every gate gets hung to close true through the county's freeze-thaw swings. Whether the job is 40 feet or 400, the walkthrough at the end covers every hinge with you standing there.
Estate edges call for ranch rail and deer fencing, while subdivision courts match wood fence installation and vinyl behind the house line.
Repair and replacement
Rural edges lose rail to weather and pedestrians; subdivisions lose panels to wind. Either way we match what stands, from crossbuck gates to vinyl privacy.
Downed rail and wind-caught panels are replaced to match what still stands on the line.
Mixed frontage-and-rear layouts are rebuilt with the right style on the right side of the lot.

Cost
Rail miles and privacy footage answer to different rates, so Chantilly quotes list them separately. Privacy wood typically plans at $30–$60 per linear foot installed, aluminum at $40–$75, and your estimate confirms the number.
| Wood privacy (per linear foot, installed) | $30–$60 |
|---|---|
| Vinyl privacy (per linear foot, installed) | $40–$70 |
| Aluminum open fence (per linear foot, installed) | $40–$75 |
| Walk gate | $600–$1,500 |
| Old fence removal | Quoted on the estimate |

Permits
Chantilly parcels follow Fairfax County zoning: residential fences generally need no building permit, front yards cap at 4 feet — 7 feet on lots of 2 or more acres, 6 feet by variance — and side or rear runs may reach 7 feet. A corner lot puts the front-yard cap on both of its street-facing yards. Rural-style edges raise their own questions — agricultural exemptions and long frontages among them — and the Land Development Services Permit Application Center is where we confirm the specifics.
Association review applies in the subdivisions, cleared before materials are ordered. Miss Utility at 811 locates buried lines free before any digging, required across Virginia. Pool barriers hold at 48 inches minimum with self-closing, self-latching gates on the pool side. The on-site design marks heights, gate locations, and style changes on stakes you approve before a single post is set.
FAQ
A Chantilly fence generally needs no Fairfax County building permit — zoning applies with 4-foot front yards and up to 7 feet elsewhere, and corner lots follow front rules on both street sides. Rural-edge parcels get a county confirmation for agricultural-style fencing. We handle the checks and the 811 locate.
Ranch rail and deer fencing price differently than privacy: a typical planning range puts privacy wood at $30–$60 per linear foot installed, vinyl at $40–$70, aluminum at $40–$75, and ranch rail lower by design. Automated gates are their own line. Your estimate confirms the number.
Honestly, not by itself — deer clear 4 feet without effort. Where deer pressure is real we add angled netting or taller mesh behind the rail, which keeps the look and does the job. We walk the tree line with you to find where they cross before specifying anything.
Yes — swing or slide operators matched to gate weight, keypads and remotes for access, and solar panels where the nearest power is hundreds of feet away. The estimate visit measures the approach so the operator is sized to the gate, not hoped onto it.
Often — the courts here commonly publish approved heights, colors, and open-front requirements. We ask for your community's guideline book at the estimate visit, design to it, and sequence association approval before materials are ordered. County zoning runs in parallel, never instead.
