Before installing a fence in Royersford, PA there are a few things a homeowner should be aware of before getting too far into the planning process. It is important to know that the borough of Royersford requires a permit for all fence installation, both new and replacement of existing fence.  We have provided a link for the permit application below.

Royersford Borough Permit Application

Royersford’s fence rules and regulations are a bit unusual.  While the borough does not limit a homeowner to any particular style of fence – you can choose chain link fencing which many townships will not allow – there are some regulations when height is involved.  Overall, the general height restriction is a fence can be no taller than 6′ tall.  If a fence is being installed on a residential property, you can opt for solid board fencing

; however, anything over 4′ tall and installed for non-residential purposes must have a 25% opening. Great options for this is a semi-private vinyl style of fencing or an open spindle topped fence.

If you live in a twin home, there is a special exception to the 6′ height rule in Royersford.  For privacy purposes, a homeowner is allowed to install a fence 8′ tall from the back of the house, in between the two households, and the 8′ tall section of fence can extend 20′ into the yard or half of the back yard’s length, whichever is shorter.
