Fencing in Brooklyn

The Bushland Shire – Hornsby, Cherrybrook, Pennant Hills, Thornleigh, Beecroft and the semi-rural north around Galston, Arcadia and Berowra. Large leafy blocks, many backing onto reserves.

What we install in Brooklyn

  • Colorbond fencing – new boundary fences and replacements in 1.5 m to 2.4 m heights, any Colorbond colour, either sheet profile
  • Fence height extensions – 300 mm or 600 mm louvre, lattice, slat or sheet toppers on your existing Colorbond posts
  • Retaining walls under fences – treated pine or aluminium sleeper walls built directly under the new fence where levels differ
  • Timber fencing – treated pine paling, lapped and lap-and-cap on galvanised steel posts
  • Slat and louvre screens – aluminium horizontal slat, vertical slat and louvre fences, screens and gates in any powder-coat colour
  • Pool fencing – aluminium flat top and tubular barriers built to AS 1926.1-2012 with self-closing gates
  • Aluminium fencing – rust-free flat top, vertical picket, blade and slat aluminium fencing for coastal and front-boundary use

Local notes for Brooklyn

Local conditions: sandstone ridges and gullies with shallow soil in places; bushfire-prone land borders most of the shire.

  • Bush-backed blocks in Hornsby Heights, Berowra and Mount Colah favour steel fencing; Colorbond gives ember and termite resistance that timber cannot.
  • Cherrybrook and Pennant Hills homes often add 300 mm or 600 mm louvre or lattice extensions to existing Colorbond for privacy from two-storey neighbours.
  • Rock is common – we allow for coring post holes where sandstone is close to the surface.

Fencing questions in Brooklyn

Do you service Brooklyn?
Yes. Brooklyn is inside our Sydney-wide service area and we quote there regularly. Site inspections and written quotes are free, and travel is included in the price.
Do I need council approval for a fence in Brooklyn?
Under the NSW exempt development rules a boundary fence behind the building line can be up to 1.8 m high without approval on most residential lots. Hornsby Shire Council applies the NSW codes; heritage conservation areas in Beecroft, Cheltenham and Wahroonga limit front-fence height and materials. Pool barriers must comply with AS 1926.1-2012 regardless. We tell you what we see on site, but only Hornsby Shire Council can confirm what applies to your property.
How is a shared boundary fence paid for?
Under the NSW Dividing Fences Act adjoining owners generally share the cost of a sufficient dividing fence equally. We give you a copy of the quote to pass to your Brooklyn neighbour, and can quote each side separately if you prefer.
How soon can you start in Brooklyn?
Usually within one to two weeks of you accepting the quote, weather permitting. Most residential fences are finished in one to two and a half days.
Do you do supply only?
Yes. Colorbond panels, aluminium flat top and slat kits and gates can be supplied to Brooklyn for you or your builder to install – ask for a supply-only price on the quote form.
