Fence Installation & Repair services in Algiers
Algiers is part of the City of New Orleans, even though it sits across the river on the West Bank. That means the city's Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance applies, and the Department of Safety and Permits is the office to ask. Algiers Point, by the ferry landing, is a local historic district of Victorian cottages and shotgun houses, where the Historic District Landmarks Commission reviews fences. Iron and wood picket fences suit those blocks. Farther out the picture changes completely. Aurora Gardens and Tall Timbers are suburban streets from the 1960s and 1970s, English Turn is a gated golf community with association rules, and Lower Coast Algiers is semi-rural with large tracts and horse properties. Few places around New Orleans ask for such different fences inside one neighborhood name.

Permits and local rules
New Orleans zoning (Section 21.6.N) caps fences at 8 feet, or 7 feet in national historic districts, and front yard fences must be open. A building permit is required above those heights. In Algiers Point, the Historic District Landmarks Commission may also have to approve the fence.
