Project Overview

This Pasadena homeowner was ready to say goodbye to an old, worn chain link fence. All Around Fence tore it out and replaced it with two complementary wood fence styles built for how each part of the yard actually gets used: an open, spaced picket fence along the street-facing front yard, and a solid board privacy fence enclosing the side and rear yard, with a matching wood picket gate providing access off the driveway.

The result reads as one cohesive project rather than two mismatched fences — the same natural pressure-treated pine runs the whole way around the property, just switching from open picket to full privacy exactly where it’s needed.

Why This Design Worked

Not every part of a yard needs the same fence. The front yard benefits from an open, welcoming look that maintains sightlines to the house, while the backyard is where homeowners actually want privacy from neighbors. Running two wood fence styles off the same property line, in the same material, lets both goals get met without the yard feeling like two different projects stitched together.

Building the fence line around the mature tree in the backyard, rather than routing it straight through it, kept a piece of the existing landscape intact, rather than forcing the homeowner to choose between the fence and the tree.

Standout Features

Spaced Picket Front Yard Design

Individual pickets with open spacing keep the front yard looking classic and open from the street, a clean upgrade from the chain link it replaced.

Solid Board Privacy Fence

Tight, gap-free boards enclose the side and rear yard, giving the homeowner full privacy from neighboring properties.

Matching Wood Picket Gate

A picket-style gate off the driveway ties the two fence sections together and gives the homeowner easy access between the front and back yard.

Tree-Line Curve

The privacy fence line was built to curve around a mature tree at the back of the property, keeping the tree in place rather than removing it to run a straight line.

The Finished Result

The old chain link fence is gone, replaced by a wood fence that fits how the homeowner actually uses the property — open and inviting out front, fully private in back. The same natural pine ties both sections together, and the fence line’s gentle curve around the backyard tree makes the whole install feel built around the property rather than dropped onto it.

What the Homeowner Had to Say

“I was in search for having my old chain link fence taken down and replaced with a wooden fence. I got some extremely outrageous quotes from companies. A neighbor thankfully told me about All Around Fence. From the moment I talked to Sheila, I felt at ease. She scheduled an appointment for an estimate and the owner Jim showed up to my house, I knew this was the company. Jim was pleasant and professional to talk to, he was able to take my ideas and plans from my head, and give me a quote that was a 1/3 of the cost of the other companies, and with higher quality materials. The day of the installation was so easy for me. And the work and professionalism continued as they installed the fence throughout the day. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a new fence!!!”– Brandon Cote, Pasadena, MD
