Fence supply, rental and installation in Burnaby
Burnaby — the geographic centre of Metro Vancouver and home to BCIT — anchors Simon Fraser University on Burnaby Mountain and Metropolis at Metrotown. With a population of 249,125 and roughly 2,500 housing starts per year, the fencing market spans residential privacy backyards in Brentwood and Lougheed transit-village towers, commercial perimeters, and pool enclosures across the metro. Local installs face 45 cm frost depth and 35 cm average annual snowfall in climate zone Zone 4 — posts here are spec'd to footings below the local frost line, and snow-load gates use heavier hinges. Permit fees run $150-500, with labour at $70-100/hr. Fenced.ca ships supply, rental, and installation crews into Burnaby from the nearest dispatch point with 24-hour quote turnaround.
