Fences

The Department of Buildings doesn't require property

owners to hire an architect or engineer, provide

design plans or have a work permit to install a fence.

Homeowners may install their own Fencing - but

if you're hiring someone to do it be sure it's a home

improvement contractor licensed by the Department

of Consumer Affairs. Use DCA's Instant License Check

at nyc.gov/consumers. In addition, the Landmarks

Preservation Commission must give approval and/or

issue permits for work on landmarked properties. Visit

nyc.gov/landmarks.

Residential and commercial fences for privacy are

typically made of wood, plastic, brick or chain link. The

NYC Building Code generally allows a maximum fence

height of 10 feet, and the NYC Zoning Resolution

outlines additional height limits:

Residential Districts:

6 feet, BC §3111.1

Residential Front Yard Fences:

4 feet, ZR §23-44

Residential Side of Corner Lot:

6 feet, ZR §23-44
