Local notes for Great Mackerel Beach

Local conditions: coastal sand and sandstone headlands on the beaches; bushfire-prone plateau suburbs inland with rock and large trees.

  • Belrose, Frenchs Forest and Terrey Hills blocks back onto bush – Colorbond for ember resistance and low maintenance.
  • Pool barriers to AS 1926.1 are a constant need on the Northern Beaches; we advise on gates, latches and the non-climbable zone.
  • Salt air on the beach suburbs (Dee Why, Narrabeen, Avalon, Newport) means aluminium for open fencing and pool fencing – we specify Colorbond fixings and post caps for boundary fences.

Northern Beaches Council

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. Northern Beaches Council follows the state codes; foreshore, bushfire and heritage (Manly, Pittwater) overlays affect what is exempt. Council website.

Fencing questions in Great Mackerel Beach

Do you service Great Mackerel Beach?

Do I need council approval for a fence in Great Mackerel Beach?
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. Northern Beaches Council follows the state codes; foreshore, bushfire and heritage (Manly, Pittwater) overlays affect what is exempt. Pool barriers must comply with AS 1926.1-2012 regardless. We tell you what we see on site, but only Northern Beaches 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 Great Mackerel Beach neighbour, and can quote each side separately if you prefer.
Do you do supply only?
Yes. Colorbond panels, aluminium flat top and slat kits and gates can be supplied to Great Mackerel Beach for you or your builder to install – ask for a supply-only price on the quote form.
Which Colorbond colour suits Great Mackerel Beach?
Monument, Woodland Grey, Basalt and Surfmist are the most chosen colours across Northern Beaches; two-tone fences (one colour for sheets, another for posts and rails) cost no more. See the Colorbond colour chart for exact swatches.
