Common Questions

According to the City of Kelowna Zoning Bylaw, residential fences are limited to 1.2 meters (approx. 4 ft) in front yards and 2.0 meters (approx. 6.5 ft) in side and rear yards. Fences abutting agricultural or commercial zones may reach up to 2.4 meters.

The frost line in the Kelowna interior typically ranges from 75 cm to 120 cm. To prevent leaning, posts should be set at a minimum depth of 90 cm to 135 cm (approx. 36 to 54 inches) depending on specific site elevation.

A standard residential fence permit for zoning and setback review starts at $35. However, if the fence exceeds 2.0 meters or requires a development variance, fees can increase significantly based on project valuation.

Chain link remains the most affordable at $20 to $35 per linear foot installed. For privacy, pressure-treated wood ($40-$50/ft) is more economical than premium Western Red Cedar or Vinyl, which both average $45 to $55 per linear foot.
