Beverly Woods Fences
Fences that handle the rolling, wooded lots of Beverly Woods and nearby south Charlotte neighborhoods.
Beverly Woods has rolling, wooded lots where slopes and retaining walls are common. Privacy fences need careful stepping, aluminum can rack along hills, and posts near walls are often set behind the wall rather than into it. Big trees mean careful root work and good airflow to fight mildew.
The area
South Charlotte off Park Road and Sharon Road West, Beverly Woods developed in the 1960s with wooded, hilly lots.

Fence considerations
- Slopes: stepped wood or vinyl, racked aluminum or chain link
- Retaining walls: posts set behind block walls
- Trees: large hardwoods and pines with shallow roots
- Drainage: water flowing downhill between lots
Good fits
Black aluminum for sloped back lines, board-on-board for privacy between houses, and pool fences on terraced yards.
Getting it right on hills
On steep lots we lay out the fence with string lines before digging, so steps are even and gates swing clear of grade.
Questions Charlotte homeowners ask
Stepped or racked fence on a hill?
Solid wood and vinyl panels usually step; aluminum and chain link can rack to follow the slope smoothly.
Can my fence go on top of my retaining wall?
Sometimes, but posts set in the ground behind segmental block walls are usually safer for the wall.
