Message from the Founder

American Fence Company was established in Phoenix, Arizona by my family in 1948. We currently have 17 branches throughout the Western United States specializing in installation, material sales and rental fence. During these past 60 years, we have been involved in every type of fence, from automotive proving grounds to NASCAR racetracks, from Federal prisons to amusement parks, from nuclear power plants to solar energy grids, never forgetting that many of our most essential fences are busy keeping in the family dog.

Our Company has developed a talented team of fencing professionals, while maintaining a strong debt-free financial position. That combination ensures you access to a broad spectrum of fencing experts, with unlimited bonding capacity, ready to meet all your demands. Consequently, American Fence Company can assist with fence specifications and value engineering on your future developments.

Throughout the years, we and our fences have successfully weathered many challenges, including the most recent and severe since the Great Depression. We are proud of our long history of service and the loyalty of our staff of over 200 people who have been with the Company an average of 10 years. As a result, you can count on us being there to serve your fencing needs now and well into the future.

It always fills me with pride when I travel and see projects with our fence still standing and effective decade after decade. What better proof of our expertise and the value that American Fence Company provides to our customers.
