Fence Regulations in Idaho Made Simple

Getting to Know Idaho’s Fence Regulations

Stay informed about Idaho’s fencing regulations to ensure a hassle-free process. Not following the rules can mean fines, disputes, and unnecessary stress.

Important Fencing Rules in Idaho

• Fence Height Rules: In most residential areas, fences are limited to 6 feet in backyards and 4 feet in front yards. Apply for a variance if your design requires taller fences.
• Installing on Property Lines: Ensure your fence is placed correctly within your property’s boundaries. A surveyor can help you avoid placement mistakes.
• Collaborative Fence Projects: Work with neighbors to address shared fencing arrangements.
• Permits: Permits ensure compliance with local rules, especially for taller fences. Contact city officials to confirm if your project needs a permit.
