Blakeney Fences

HOA-approved aluminum, pool and privacy fences for Blakeney's newer neighborhoods.

Blakeney Fences in Charlotte, NC

Blakeney-area homes are relatively new and often in HOAs with clear fence standards. Black aluminum, approved privacy fences, pool barriers and composite patio screens lead our work here. Graded lots with retaining walls and drainage swales need careful layout.

The area

South Charlotte near Ballantyne and Rea Road, Blakeney grew in the 2000s with shopping, offices and subdivisions.

Projects

Related: Storm drainage easements.

Typical lots and what they need

Blakeney-area homes usually sit on graded lots with sod, irrigation and builder drainage swales between houses. Many back onto wooded buffers, common areas or other homes at a different elevation, which means retaining walls and slopes are common.

Design ideas that suit the area

  • Black aluminum along common-area and buffer lines to keep the green view
  • Composite or cedar horizontal screens around patios and outdoor kitchens
  • Board-on-board privacy where the HOA allows wood
  • Pool barriers that double as yard fences

Before you build

Pull your plat to check drainage and utility easements, find property pins before landscaping covers them and get written HOA approval. We provide the drawing and product information for your application, then schedule 811 locates and install once you’re approved.

Questions Charlotte homeowners ask

Can I fence over a drainage swale?

You can cross some swales if the fence doesn’t impede water, but not in a way that blocks a storm drainage easement.

Do you install composite fences?

Yes. Composite boards in aluminum posts are popular here.
