Fence installation in Elk Ridge
Local know-how
Elk Ridge sits on the hillside above Salem and Payson, with larger lots, views across Utah Valley and a quiet, wooded feel.
Hillside lots bring slopes and retaining walls, so the fence has to follow the ground. A racked vinyl privacy fence handles a gentle grade, and ornamental steel follows walls and keeps the valley view. Elk Ridge keeps front setbacks to 36 in, so privacy fences go behind them.
Before you pick a style, here is what Elk Ridge allows.
Fence rules in Elk Ridge
Know before you build
-
Fences, walls and hedges top out at 8 ft. Anything over 7 ft needs a building permit.
-
Front setback and clear-view area: 36 in maximum.
-
On a corner lot, sight-obscuring fences over 36 in stay out of the front setback and clear-vision area.
-
Keep 3 ft clear around fire hydrants.
-
Fence design should be consistent with the surrounding neighborhood.
Permits
A building permit is required for any fence over 7 ft. For a standard 6 ft fence the code doesn’t name a permit; we confirm with the city before we build.
What it means for your fence
A 6 ft privacy fence fits behind your front setback with no building permit. Out front, fences stop at 36 in, so our 4 ft fences are too tall for an Elk Ridge front setback.
Source: Elk Ridge City Code §10-12-13 (amended 2024). Checked October 16, 2026. Codes change and HOAs can be stricter. We confirm the rules for your lot at your free estimate.

What neighbors say
In their words
"Atlas did a phenomenal job on our black 4 ft metal fencing! Our yard was not just a square to work with. We have different levels of cinder block retaining walls that are curved… Tyson went above and beyond to make the necessary alterations to make everything fit seamlessly and it turned out better than we could have expected!"
"Tyson was on the ball and communicated professionally and often. Every other fencing company we looked at ghosted us, or was flaky. Highly recommend!"
"Atlas did a FANTASTIC job on our fence. The customer service and communication was excellent. Very professional, and wonderful work!"
