New Britain, CT

Your local fence company in New Britain

Connecticut is hard on a fence. The ground freezes deep every winter, then thaws every spring, and that freeze-and-thaw cycle is what pushes a badly built fence into a lean.

A&L Fence is a family-owned company based right here in New Britain. Owner Alexander Medina has more than 25 years of hands-on experience building and repairing fences, and he is on the job himself for every project.

Local rules

New Britain fence rules

We are confirming the city’s current fence schedule. Until then, we check the rules for your street before we build.

  • Being confirmed with the city

    New Britain sets fence heights by zoning district and updated its fence rules in December 2024. We confirm the limits for your street before we build.

  • Fences over 6 feet

    The city’s building fee page lists a certificate of approval for fences over 6 feet.

  • State rule

    Under the state building code, a fence up to 7 feet needs no building permit unless it is a pool barrier. Town zoning still applies.

What we build

Every fence, built the same careful way

Nine kinds of fencing for homes and businesses across Central Connecticut — every post set by hand, below the frost line.

  • Wood double drive gate with black strap hinges in a stockade fence

    Wood fences

    Cedar and pressure-treated pine, built by hand for warmth and privacy.

  • White slatted privacy fence along a shaded lawn beside a white house

    Vinyl fences

    Clean privacy with almost no upkeep. Never needs paint or stain.

  • Chain link mesh in close-up with blurred city lights behind it

    Chain link fences

    The strong, affordable way to fence a yard, keep pets in or secure a lot.

  • Black aluminum fence across a lawn in front of shrubs and a gray house

    Aluminum & ornamental

    The look of wrought iron without the rust. Great for curb appeal.

  • Raised deck with gray railings and flower boxes in a fenced backyard

    Privacy fences

    Block the view, cut the noise and make the backyard yours again.

  • Swimming pool enclosed by a glass panel barrier, with a dark wooden fence along the back of the yard

    Pool fences

    Code-correct pool barriers with self-closing, self-latching gates.

  • Wood privacy fence with a double gate stepping down a grassy slope

    Gates

    Walk and drive gates hung to swing true and latch every time.

  • Split, weathered wooden fence rail with an old barn out of focus behind it

    Fence repair

    Leaning posts, broken boards, a gate that won’t latch — fixed right.

  • Chain link gate with a yellow frame closing an alley, a pickup truck parked beyond it

    Commercial fencing

    Secure, durable fencing for businesses, lots and properties.

FAQ

New Britain fencing questions

  • Do you give free estimates in New Britain?

    Yes. Estimates are free and there is no pressure. Call or send a message and we will come look at your yard, talk through your options, and give you an honest price in writing.

  • How deep do you set fence posts in New Britain?

    We set posts below the Connecticut frost line, about 42 inches down, in concrete. That is the step that keeps a fence from leaning after the freeze-and-thaw of our winters.

    Yes. We repair fences of every kind no matter who installed them, from leaning posts and broken boards to gates that will not latch.
