Flat-Top and Spear-Top
Flat-top panels have the rail across the top of the pickets, which looks clean and modern. Spear-top pickets rise above the top rail for a more traditional look. Both come in common heights from about 4 to 6 feet.

Aluminum Fence Murfreesboro TN - Black Ornamental Fencing
Black aluminum fence looks like iron from the street, but it won't rust, and it never needs scraping and repainting. That makes it the fence we suggest most for front yards, pool enclosures and lots that back up to a pond, a greenway or HOA common space, anywhere the view is part of the point.

Aluminum Fence Styles
Puppy-Picket Panels
Extra short pickets fill the bottom of each panel so small dogs can't squeeze through. Our dog fence page compares them with solid fences for bigger dogs.
Rackable Panels for Slopes
Plenty of yards around Murfreesboro roll toward a ditch or a creek. Rackable aluminum panels shift so the rails follow the slope instead of stepping down in stair-steps. That keeps the gap at the bottom even, which matters for pets and for pool barriers.
Where Aluminum Makes Sense Here
- Front yards in unincorporated Rutherford County. Inside the required front setback, the County's ordinance requires transparent construction. Open pickets meet that rule while still marking the yard.
- Pool enclosures. HomeGuide prices aluminum pool fence at $30 to $45 per linear foot installed nationally. For the inspection details, see pool fence and barrier gates.
- Ponds, detention areas and common ground. You keep the view and still get a real barrier. Many Murfreesboro subdivisions back onto drainage easements. Inside the city, fences generally can't go in a drainage or utility easement unless the City Engineer approves a written agreement, so we confirm the line before we price the job.
What Aluminum Fence Costs
HomeGuide's national figures:
- Aluminum picket fence: $25 to $50 per linear foot installed
- Ornamental aluminum with designer posts and tops: $40 to $75 per linear foot
- 200 feet of pool, picket or ornamental aluminum: $5,000 to $15,000
- A standard aluminum walk gate: $450 to $1,000
Powder coat is where cheap and good aluminum differ. Ask what coating comes on the panels and how thick the pickets and rails are. On a fence you'll see every day, it's worth knowing.
Aluminum or Iron?
Aluminum is lighter, can't rust, and costs less per foot. Steel and wrought iron are stronger and harder to bend, and they suit estate entrances, historic homes and heavy gates. If you're torn, read our wrought iron and steel fence page.
