Professional Vinyl Fence
A vinyl fence gives families lasting privacy and low upkeep, holding its color through Indiana winters without repainting.
Increase Curb Appeal, Privacy, and Security
A fence does a lot for a Shelbyville home: a finished edge on a century-old West Side lot, a safe space for kids and dogs in a brand-new subdivision, and a clear line where your yard meets the neighbor’s. Our professional Shelbyville fence company gives you options that match the property you actually have, whether that’s a compact corner lot near downtown, a new build in Summerfield or Stratford Place, or a few acres toward the Blue River.
We respect your time, and we’ll handle the project every step of the way, from measuring and planning to building to the City of Shelbyville’s fence standards, to the final walkthrough.
Our fence contractors are experts in residential fences as well as farm and commercial fencing. Whether you’re looking for a wood privacy fence, a vinyl picket fence, or a custom rail fence, or you have no idea what kind of fence you need, we’re ready to get to work for you!

Helpful Links:
Shelbyville is the county seat of Shelby County, Indiana, 26 miles southeast of downtown Indianapolis on I-74, where the Big Blue and Little Blue rivers meet. Platted in 1822 and incorporated in 1850, the city had a population of 20,067 at the 2020 census and is growing quickly: single-family building permits have more than doubled since 2021 as builders like Arbor, D.R. Horton, M/I, and Taylor Morrison open new neighborhoods on the north side. The Commercial and West Side historic districts anchor the older core.
Professional Shelbyville Fence Company
Our fencing professionals understand property lines, drainage, easements, and the other factors that decide where a fence can go. That matters in Shelbyville, where the Big Blue and Little Blue rivers meet at the city’s fork and older lots near the water carry drainage patterns that newer plats were engineered around. The City does not require a setback from the property line, but both sides of the fence must stay maintainable, so we lay the fence out on the line with room to work and keep it off your neighbor’s property.
Our reliable, respectful crew uses high-quality finishing materials and our tried-and-true process to install your new fence correctly and on time. When it comes to fence installation in Shelbyville, you won’t find a more experienced, professional team.
Choosing the Right Fence for Your Needs
We’ll discuss your property, preferences, location, environment, and budget. Our Shelbyville fence installation professionals can then help you settle on the best material, rail type, design, and height, including how to stay within the City’s eight-foot limit for rear and side yards and three-foot limit for front yards. We even have in-house custom fence designers able to deliver a fencing solution that meets your needs and the guidelines of communities like Isabelle Farms, Summerfield, Bear Run, and Twelve Oaks.
Shelbyville Fence Installation
BlueBird Fence Company offers Shelbyville fence installation for residential, farm, and commercial properties. Because we build every fence on-site rather than dropping in prefab panels, our Shelbyville fence installation team can follow the grade on the older West Side lots, where mature trees and settled ground are common, and on the new north-side plats that were graded for drainage. We arrive on your scheduled installation day with every material needed, install with care, and walk the finished fence with you before we leave, so nothing is left to guesswork.
Shelbyville Fence Contractor
BlueBird Fence is backed by years of satisfied customers across central Indiana, and Shelbyville sits inside the area we serve, a direct run out I-74 from the southeast side of Indianapolis. We bring the same detail-oriented approach to every Shelbyville job: a detailed quote, typically the same day you reach out, a confirmed installation date, and proactive updates along the way, so you always know what’s happening and when. We offer a wide range of products and services, including fence installation, ranch fence installation, and commercial fence installation.
Shelbyville Fence Options
BlueBird Fence Company offers a large variety of fencing options to fit your exact needs. Our Shelbyville fence material options include cedar, pressure-treated pine, vinyl, chain link, aluminum, and iron, with many configurations, optional add-ons, and opportunities to customize. In the new north-side subdivisions, vinyl privacy and black aluminum are the common picks; on the farmland that surrounds the city, a split-rail or board fence marks the line and contains livestock without closing off the view. A Shelbyville privacy fence turns a compact backyard into a quiet retreat, and a Shelbyville security fence in ornamental metal keeps your family or business safe. Ask your representative which style is best for your property.
Shelbyville Fence Builder
Our team of experts at BlueBird Fence of Indiana builds fences that are crafted to not only fit the style of your property but also match the shape of your landscape. Unlike other fence builders, our Shelbyville fence company does NOT use pre-fabricated fence panels. We build custom (stick-built) fences that follow the lay of the land and give a much smoother transition from fence to ground. Good news for Shelbyville homeowners: the City does not require a permit for a fence, but it has adopted standards in its Unified Development Ordinance, including that the non-structural side faces outward. We know those rules and build to them, so your fence is done right the first time. Request a free quote to learn more about BlueBird Fence’s services.
Shelbyville Fence Company
If you’re looking for a high-quality fence for your property, BlueBird Fence Company is the right Shelbyville fence company for you. We offer a wide variety of fence materials to choose from, including cedar, pressure-treated pine, vinyl, aluminum, metal, iron, and chain link, along with decorative add-ons and customization options. Our team is committed to high-quality products installed with attention to detail and kind, communicative service from the first call to the final walkthrough. We’re proud to serve Shelbyville families as a trusted partner, from the historic West Side to the newest homes on the north side.
Shelbyville Metal Fence
Ornamental metal fences are increasing in popularity for both commercial and residential customers. Attractive, extremely durable, and secure, they come in a variety of metal types and finishes, and iron fencing is generally low-maintenance, complements architecture, and outlasts wood and vinyl. On Shelbyville’s historic West Side, a low ornamental fence along the sidewalk suits the older architecture and stays within the City’s three-foot front-yard limit. In newer communities, black aluminum is the style most often approved. You can even personalize your Shelbyville metal fence by adding custom rails, spears, rings, scrolls, or finials.
Ask your BlueBird Fence Company representative about our Shelbyville metal fence options and configurations.
Shelbyville Wood Fence
BlueBird Fence supplies professional-grade wood fences that are built to last through Shelbyville’s freeze-thaw winters and humid summers. Our wood fences are typically made from cedar, which features a beautiful natural coloration that also naturally protects your Shelbyville fence against bugs and decay. Cedar is easy to paint or stain, or it can be left to age naturally and develop a beautiful patina. Your Shelbyville wood fence is custom-built at your home to match the curves of the landscape, which matters on the older river-side lots where the ground rarely runs level.
Shelbyville Vinyl Fence
Vinyl is a strong choice for Shelbyville homeowners who want lasting privacy without annual staining, and it suits the new subdivisions on the north side, where HOA guidelines tend to favor a clean, uniform look from the street. It holds its color through Indiana winters, shrugs off spring rain, and cleans up with a garden hose. We install vinyl privacy, semi-privacy, and picket styles, and because every run is built on-site, your vinyl fence follows your yard’s contours instead of stepping awkwardly across a slope. Ask about the profiles and colors available for your Shelbyville vinyl fence.
Shelbyville Fence Questions, Answered
Do I need a permit to build a fence in Shelbyville, Indiana?
No. The City of Shelbyville’s Planning & Building Department states that a fence does not require a permit, but the City has adopted standards in its Unified Development Ordinance that the fence must meet. We build to those standards on every Shelbyville job.
How tall can my fence be in Shelbyville?
Fences may be up to eight feet in rear and side yards and three feet in front yards. Corner and through lots have a front yard on each side that touches a public road, so the three-foot limit applies on both street sides, and nothing may be built inside the Vision Clearance Triangle at an intersection. HOA covenants may be stricter, and we confirm both before we quote.
Does my fence have to be set back from the property line in Shelbyville?
No. The City does not require a setback from property lines, but both sides of the fence must be maintainable and the non-structural side must face outward. We set the fence on or just inside the line so you can maintain it without stepping onto the neighbor’s yard, and we recommend a survey when the line is uncertain.
Do you install fences in Shelbyville’s new north-side subdivisions?
Yes. Communities such as Isabelle Farms, Summerfield, Bear Run, Twelve Oaks, and Stratford Place typically have architectural guidelines covering fence material, color, and height. Black aluminum, white or tan vinyl, and cedar picket are the styles HOAs most commonly approve. Bring us your covenants, or we’ll help you find them, and we’ll match the fence to the rules. See our HOA-approved fence options.
How much does a fence cost in Shelbyville, and can I finance it?
Cost depends on material, height, linear footage, gates, and site conditions, so we quote every project individually and send a detailed estimate, typically the same day you reach out. Many Shelbyville homeowners spread the cost with our financing options through Wisetack, including 0% APR plans for qualified buyers.
BlueBird Fence also serves homeowners in nearby Franklin, Greenwood, New Palestine, and Indianapolis.
