A Fence That Fits Your Home and Your Life
Your fence does more than mark a property line. It gives your kids and pets a safe place to play, adds privacy from the neighbors, defines your outdoor living space, and boosts your home’s curb appeal and value. For over 40 years, homeowners across Greater Lansing have trusted Dewitt Fence Company to get it right.
Popular Residential Fence Styles
- Privacy fences — 6 ft wood or vinyl panels that block sightlines and reduce noise. A favorite for backyards in Okemos, Haslett, and DeWitt.
- Semi-privacy & decorative — shadowbox, lattice-top, and spaced-picket designs that balance openness with seclusion.
- Picket fences — classic charm for front yards and gardens, in wood, vinyl, or aluminum.
- Pet & pool enclosures — secure, code-compliant fencing to keep pets in and pools safely enclosed.
- Ornamental aluminum & iron — elegant, durable fencing that elevates curb appeal without blocking the view.

Do I need a permit for a fence in Lansing or the surrounding townships?
Many local municipalities require a permit and have rules on height and placement, especially on corner lots. We’ll help you understand the requirements for your specific city or township — Lansing, East Lansing, DeWitt, Meridian Township, and others each have their own guidelines.

Most residential fences are installed in one to three days once materials arrive and the line is marked. Larger or custom projects may take longer. We’ll give you a clear timeline with your quote.
