Questions

Gates and fences FAQ

How high can a residential fence be in London?

On a London residential lot, fences may be at most 2.13 metres high. Within a corner or driveway visibility triangle, the limit is 0.9 metres. Barbed wire and electric fences are not allowed on residential lots.

When do I need a pool fence permit in London?

A swimming pool fence permit is needed before a pool is built and before an existing pool fence is replaced.

What does a pool fence need in London?

At least 153 cm in height, with openings that cannot pass a ball over 3.8 cm. Every gate needs self-closing and self-latching devices. An outside latch that opens without a key must be at least 122 cm above ground.

What if the property is outside London?

St. Thomas, Stratford and the townships set their own rules. Check with your town or township before ordering a fence or gate.

Good to know

  • Mark the gate positions, driveway and corners on your sketch before asking for quotes.
