Edison Fence Rules: What to Know Before You Build

Edison's fence rules are in its zoning code (Chapter 37, Section 37-4.3). The key points for residential zones:

• 6 feet maximum. No fence can be taller than 6 feet in a residential zone.
• Front yard: 4 feet for any fence that restricts visibility.
• Finished side faces the neighbors.
• Keep sight lines clear at corners. Edison limits height in the sight triangle at intersections (Section 37-4.13).
• Stay on your property. Fences must be fully inside the property lines.
• Townhouses and planned developments: fences may need to match the approved site plan, so check with your association first.
• Taller fences and pools: Edison's construction fee schedule lists permits for fences over 6 feet and for pool barriers. New Jersey's code calls for pool barriers at least 4 feet high with self-closing, self-latching gates.

Rules can change and some properties have extra limits (corner lots, flood zones, HOAs). We review the current requirements for your property during the estimate, and you can confirm with the Edison zoning office.
