Choosing the Right Commercial Fence Company Near Me

Searching “commercial fence company near me” in Michigan? Here’s how to choose the right contractor—plus the best fence types (chain link, ornamental aluminum, gates) for security, access, and long-term durability.

Choosing the Right Commercial Fence Company Near Me

If you searched “commercial fence company near me” you’re probably not shopping for something decorative—you’re trying to solve a real problem: security, access control, liability, and a clean perimeter that holds up year after year.

At Boerman Fencing Co. (based in Fremont, Michigan), we build commercial and agricultural fence systems that are straightforward, durable, and installed with the corners, braces, and gates done right.

What to Look For in a Commercial Fence Contractor

1) Local experience that matches Michigan conditions

Michigan frost, wet seasons, and shifting ground can expose shortcuts fast. A commercial fence should be built for longevity, not just “looking good on install day.”

2) A contractor who asks the right questions

A good quote starts with understanding:

  • What are you protecting (equipment, inventory, yards, parking, dumpsters)?
  • Who needs access (employees, vendors, customers)?
  • Do you need controlled entry (gates, operators, keypad, card access)?
  • Any problem areas (slopes, drainage, easements, tight corners)?

3) A clear scope (materials + layout + gates)

A commercial fence bid should spell out:

  • Fence type + height
  • Post spacing and terminal/corner build
  • Gate widths, hardware, and swing/slide direction
  • Any automation (operator, safety loops, controls)
  • Cleanup and restoration expectations

Commercial Fence Options We Install Most

Chain Link Fences

If you want durable security with high visibility, chain link is still one of the best ROI fences for commercial sites. It’s common for yards, storage areas, parking perimeters, and facilities that need strength without hiding what’s inside.

Good fit for: warehouses, contractors, storage, municipalities, industrial properties.

Ornamental Aluminum Fences

When you want security but also want the property to look sharp—ornamental aluminum is a clean solution that reads “professional” from the street. Great for businesses that care about curb appeal but still need a real perimeter.

Good fit for: offices, medical, schools, HOAs, retail, and higher-visibility properties.

Automatic Gate Systems

If your site needs controlled access, automatic gates are the upgrade that changes everything—especially for yards, fleets, and after-hours entry. We install gate systems that keep traffic moving while maintaining security.

Common add-ons: keypad entry, remote access, safety features, and operator-ready posts/hardware.

Installation and Maintenance

Professional installation (done fast, done right)

Commercial work needs to respect your schedule. Our goal is to install efficiently and keep disruption low—without cutting the corners that actually matter (terminal posts, braces, gate structure).

Ongoing support

A fence is only “done” if it stays functional. We can help with repairs, adjustments, and long-term upkeep so your fence keeps doing its job year after year.

Quick Checklist Before You Hire

  • Do they build strong corners/terminals (not just run posts and hope)?
  • Do they explain gate options clearly (and size them for your traffic)?
  • Do they offer fence types that match your use case (security vs. appearance vs. access)?
  • Do they stand behind the install with support after the job?
