Ortonville fence company for village and township homes

Anchor Fence is a family-owned Michigan fence company with a Redford shop and a North Oakland County location. We install vinyl, wood, chain link, and steel and aluminum fences, plus gates and railings, for Ortonville homes. The Village of Ortonville sits inside Brandon Charter Township, and each has its own building office, so the first step is finding out which one covers your address. We can advise you on what the village or township requires, call MISS DIG before we dig, and give every installation a two-year workmanship warranty in writing. Call 248-392-0244 or request a free quote.

Two offices for fences in the Ortonville area

Village addresses go through the Village of Ortonville Building Department, which handles permits, inspections, and zoning enforcement. Township addresses go through the Brandon Township Planning and Building Department. Some property near the village lies in neighboring townships, so the right office depends on where your parcel sits.

Confirm the rules before you design

Fence height, style, and permit requirements depend on which office covers your lot, so we confirm them with that office instead of guessing. Call 248-392-0244 with your street address, and we will help you find the right contact before your quote visit.


Fences for Ortonville homes

A fence usually has one of three jobs: a private yard, a safe place for pets or kids, or a front yard that looks finished. We match the style to the job, then check it against your local rules. See all residential fence options.

Privacy for the backyard

A privacy fence in vinyl or wood gives you a screened yard. Vinyl cleans up with a hose, and wood can be stained to match your trim. Height limits depend on your village or township, so we confirm them before we quote.

Chain link for pets and budgets

Chain link fencing is a practical way to enclose a dog run or a side yard, and privacy slats can be added later where allowed. It also costs less than most solid fences.

Open styles for the front

Steel and aluminum fencing gives the front yard an ornamental look while staying open. Aluminum does not rust, and matching gates and railings finish the entry. Ask your building office what the front yard allows before you order.


Posts set for frost, and 811 before we dig

Anchor Fence sets posts in concrete deep enough for Michigan frost. Before any digging, Michigan law calls for a MISS DIG request.

  • The request must be made at least 3 business days before digging, and we handle it for our installs.

  • MISS DIG marks public utility lines. Private lines, such as a sprinkler system or a line to an outbuilding, are your responsibility to point out.

  • Walk the fence line with us at the estimate, so we plan around trees, drains, and anything buried.

Village of Ortonville

The village has its own building department, which handles permits, inspections, and zoning enforcement. Permits are emailed. Ask the village office whether your fence needs a permit, what height and style are allowed, and what the fee is, before you order. The property owner applies, and we can advise you and give you the layout and material details.

  • Office: 476 Mill St, Ortonville, MI 48462

  • Phone: 248-627-4976

Brandon Charter Township

Township addresses fall under the Brandon Township Planning and Building Department. The township has its own fence regulations. Check the current rules with the township before you build.

  • Office: 395 Mill St, Ortonville, MI 48462

  • Phone: 248-627-4916

Your village or township building department issues any permit, so you or your contractor should confirm the rules with that office before work begins.

Ortonville fence questions

If your address is in the Village of Ortonville, contact the village Building Department at 248-627-4976. If it is in Brandon Township, contact the Brandon Township Planning and Building Department at 248-627-4916. Ask the office that covers your parcel.

That depends on whether you are in the village or the township, so ask the right building department before you build. The property owner applies for any permit, and the village or township issues it. Anchor Fence can advise you on the rules and give you the layout and material details for the application.

Height limits are set by the village or the township, and they can differ for front, side, and rear yards. We do not guess. Ask your building department, or have us confirm it during your estimate.
