Liberi Fence installs residential privacy fences across South Jersey in vinyl, wood and semi-private shadowbox styles, from our family-owned shop in Turnersville. Most privacy fences we build are 6 feet tall in the back yard, and the right material depends on how much upkeep you want, how exposed the yard is to wind, and what your township and HOA allow. We are an authorized dealer for Illusions Vinyl Fence, and every material we install is also available with free delivery within 200 miles.
The best privacy fence for a South Jersey yard is the one that balances up-front cost against the time you want to spend maintaining it.
| Option | Privacy | Upkeep | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vinyl tongue-and-groove (Illusions) | Full, no gaps | Wash occasionally | Homeowners who never want to paint or stain; HOA neighborhoods |
| Wood board-on-board | Full | Seal or stain every few years | Natural look at a lower starting cost |
| Wood stockade | Mostly full | Seal or stain; small gaps can open as boards dry | The most economical privacy fence |
| Shadowbox (wood or vinyl) | Semi-private | Depends on material | Windy lots and fences where both sides should look finished |

In most South Jersey townships a back-yard privacy fence can be 6 feet tall, while front-yard fences are held lower, but the exact limit is set by each municipality's ordinance and sometimes by an HOA. Corner lots usually have a sight triangle near the street where tall fences are not allowed. Our guide to the tallest fence you can put up in South Jersey shows how to check your township, and we confirm the rule before we quote.
A solid 6-foot fence acts like a sail in a nor'easter, so on open lots we set posts deeper, space them tighter, or recommend shadowbox to let wind through. Most homeowners face the finished side toward the neighbor; our post on giving your neighbor the good side of the fence explains when that is required. If you only need to screen one part of the yard, our guide on blocking your neighbor's view of your backyard covers partial-run options.
We install privacy fences throughout Gloucester, Camden, Burlington, Salem, Cumberland, Atlantic and Cape May counties, including Washington Township, Sicklerville, Cherry Hill, Voorhees, Mount Laurel and West Deptford. Replacing an old privacy fence? See fence replacement in South Jersey.

Privacy fence is priced by the linear foot plus gates and any old-fence removal, and vinyl costs more up front than wood. We quote after measuring on site; our NJ fence cost guide explains what moves the number.
Most South Jersey townships require a fence permit or zoning approval, and HOAs often need architectural approval first. We check the requirement for your address before installation.
