2026 Price Guide
How much does a fence cost in North Hollywood?
Real per-foot numbers, no bait pricing to get a foot in the door. Below is what fencing runs in North Hollywood by material, plus the things that push a quote up or down on a small, built-up lot.
Cost by fence type
| Material | Per linear ft installed | 100 ft run | 150 ft run |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chain link | $18 to $40 | $1,800 to $4,000 | $2,700 to $6,000 |
| Wood privacy | $30 to $60 | $3,000 to $6,000 | $4,500 to $9,000 |
| Vinyl / PVC | $40 to $70 | $4,000 to $7,000 | $6,000 to $10,500 |
| Wrought iron | $50 to $120 | $5,000 to $12,000 | $7,500 to $18,000 |
Each of those numbers includes concrete-set posts, the panels or pickets, any gate and hardware inside the run, and the labor to put it up. The quote we hand you is measured against your own line, your material choice, and how the crew gets in.
Most NoHo lots are small enough that a 100 or 150 foot run covers the whole yard, so the table above usually lands close. Tell us the street and the material and we will price your actual line.
Gates and add-ons
| Add-on | Installed price |
|---|---|
| Walk gate | $350 to $1,200 each |
| Driveway gate (manual) | $2,000 to $8,000 and up |
| Automatic gate operator | add $1,500 to $5,000 |
| Keypad, intercom, or access control | from $300, by system |
| Privacy slats for chain link | $5 to $12 / linear ft added |
| Old fence demo and haul-off | $3 to $10 / linear ft |
Driveway gates are the big swing here, and a tight NoHo drive often needs a slider instead of a swing. Send us a photo of the opening and we will price the gate and the opener together.
What moves a North Hollywood quote
- Lot access. On a narrow lot or an alley-only backyard, the crew carries panels, posts, and concrete by hand rather than backing a truck to the line, and that extra handling is real labor. An open lot with a wide side gate sits lower in the range.
- Privacy upgrades. A solid six foot vinyl or wood panel, a woodgrain or lattice top, or a board-on-board good-neighbor pattern all cost more than a basic fence, and privacy is the top request on these close lots.
- Security gates. A driveway gate with an automatic operator is often the largest single add on a North Hollywood job, and a slider for a tight drive costs more than a simple swing.
- Tearing out the old fence. Demo and haul-off add $3 to $10 a linear foot, and it gets its own line on the quote instead of disappearing into the rate.
- Corner lots. More frontage to fence, plus the 42 inch visibility triangle at the corner and driveway, can shape the design and the price.
- Grade of material. Step up from standard cedar to construction-heart redwood, or to a heavier iron picket, and you move up inside that material's own band.
Vinyl versus wood in North Hollywood
Almost every privacy job in NoHo comes down to one of these two, and the trade is a clean one. Wood wins on day one at roughly $30 to $60 per linear foot, where vinyl asks $40 to $70, and cedar or redwood carries the warm look that sits right next to the older bungalows and Spanish homes on these blocks. Then the upkeep arrives: wood needs a seal every couple of years to fight the sun, and boards can gray or cup on you. Vinyl takes the bigger hit at install and then leaves you alone, keeping its color through the heat, shrugging off termites, and never wanting paint. Homeowners staring at a long run they have no interest in babysitting usually pick it. Either one screens a full six feet between close neighbors, which is the entire point on a lot this size. Our wood vs vinyl guide walks the comparison through step by step.

Cost questions
What does each fence type cost per linear foot?
Chain link sits at $18 to $40 a linear foot installed, wood at $30 to $60, vinyl at $40 to $70, and wrought iron at $50 to $120. Short back runs and chain link land at the bottom of those bands. Ornamental iron and heavy privacy detail land at the top.
What does a 150 foot vinyl run cost here?
Six foot vinyl privacy across 150 linear feet generally comes to $6,000 to $10,500 installed, posts, panels, hardware, and labor included. Pulling out an old fence, hauling material down a narrow side yard or alley, and picking a woodgrain or lattice top all push it toward the upper number. Build that same run in wood and you are closer to $4,500 to $9,000.
Why does tight access add to a North Hollywood fence price?
On the small, close lots common here, the crew often has to carry panels, posts, and concrete through a narrow side yard or a rear alley rather than backing a truck up to the line. That extra handling takes time, and time is labor, so a hard-to-reach backyard costs a little more to fence than an open one, even for the same material and run.
Do security gates add a lot to the cost?
They can be the single biggest line on a North Hollywood job. A manual driveway gate starts near $2,000 and a wide iron pair passes $8,000, and an automatic operator with a keypad or intercom adds $1,500 to $5,000 more. Since demand for security driveway gates is strong here, we quote the gate as its own clear line so you see exactly what it adds.
