Iron fencing for the City of Trees
Claremont holds its builders to a higher visual standard than most valley cities — the Village's craftsman streets, the Colleges' landscaped edges, and a mid-century stock that people restore rather than replace. Iron suits that standard: honest material, clean lines, and proportions matched to the house. And on the north side, where yards back the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park, the same material does practical duty keeping coyotes and wildlife out. As iron specialists, Apexguard Fence builds the fence and the gates as one system.
Recent work: a real Apexguard modern slat build — clean horizontal lines that suit Claremont's mid-century and updated homes. We install the same across Claremont and the foothill cities.
What we build in Claremont
- Craftsman-appropriate frontage — low, open, simply detailed iron for Village-area streets.
- Modern slat & horizontal iron — clean lines for mid-century and updated homes.
- Wildlife-resistant iron fence — taller runs for lots backing the Wilderness Park and Thompson Creek.
- Iron driveway gates — swing or sliding, manual or automated.
- Pool-code iron fence — built to California pool-safety guidelines.
Built carefully, around the trees
Claremont protects its tree canopy, and we build like it: post holes routed around established roots, footings adjusted rather than roots cut, and panels scribed to follow grade under mature trees. Every fence is galvanized and powder-coated for a rust-resistant finish, welded on site and touched up in matching paint, so it stands up for decades.
Pairs with automatic gates
Most Claremont driveways benefit from a gate that matches the fence. We build iron gates to match the run, manual or fitted with an automatic operator, and we handle full automatic and sliding gate installs. Not sure which style fits? Find your fence or gate style in a minute.

Wrought iron fence FAQ — Claremont
How much does a wrought iron fence cost in Claremont?
Installed wrought iron fencing in Claremont commonly runs about $50 to $100 per linear foot for residential work. Height, style, gates, footings, and access affect the price, which we confirm with a free on-site measurement.
Can you build iron that suits a craftsman or mid-century Claremont home?
Yes. We keep frontage iron low, open, and simply detailed for craftsman streets, and build clean slat or horizontal styles for mid-century and updated homes, powder-coated black or bronze.
Do you build wildlife-resistant iron fencing in north Claremont?
Yes. Yards backing the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park and Thompson Creek see regular coyote and wildlife traffic, and we build taller wrought iron designed to keep them out while preserving the view.
Can you install a fence around Claremont's protected trees?
Yes. We route post holes around established roots, adjust footings rather than cut roots, and scribe panels to grade under mature trees, so the fence goes in without harming the canopy.
Is there a height limit for a front-yard iron fence in Claremont?
Front-yard fence height in Claremont is limited by city code, so iron along the front setback is kept lower and open, with taller iron along the side and rear property lines. We confirm the limits for your lot and pull any required permit as part of the job.
