A long commercial security fence line on a Texas site, built by Johnson Services Company.

The #1 fence company in Texas

Commercial Fencing in Texas

A hundred crews, seven Texas yards, two million feet of fence last year and the steel allocation of Master Halco's largest customer. Send the drawings and the date. We hold it.

The site walk is free. The bid prices the drawings, and it names what the drawings left out.

A commercial fence is bought on three questions before anyone reads a price: can this company put enough people on the line for long enough, will the steel be on the truck when the slab is ready, and who answers the phone when the pour slips a week. Most fence companies in Texas run one to three crews, so a long perimeter becomes a queue behind somebody else's back yard.

Johnson runs more than a hundred crews out of seven yards in Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio, and buys more fence from Master Halco than anyone in the world. That is the whole pitch. It is why national builders have put us on their subdivisions for twenty years, and why a data center perimeter that runs past a mile of line is a scheduling job to us rather than a stretch.

Everything that goes into a commercial perimeter, and we build all of it

  • Commercial chain link fence built by Johnson Services Company in Texas

    Commercial chain link fence

    Nine-gauge and six-gauge fabric on Schedule 40 posts, galvanized to ASTM A392 Class 2 or black vinyl coated, six to twelve feet, with barbed wire or razor topping where the site calls for it.

  • Ornamental steel and aluminum fence built by Johnson Services Company in Texas

    Ornamental steel and aluminum fence

    Welded steel pickets in powder coat for the front elevation, the campus edge and the pool barrier; aluminum where the coast or the water rules out rust.

    Anti-climb and high-security fence

    358 welded mesh, welded wire and palisade profiles that take the ladder away from a climber and the cut away from a bolt cutter.

  • Cantilever slide gates and swing gates built by Johnson Services Company in Texas

    Cantilever slide gates and swing gates

    Gate leaves to forty feet on posts sized for the leaf and the wind, with operators listed to UL 325 and built to their ASTM F2200 usage class.

  • Access control and barrier arms built by Johnson Services Company in Texas

    Access control and barrier arms

    Keypads, card readers, loops and barrier arms on the drive, wired with the gate rather than bolted on after it.

    Steel bollards set in concrete at storefronts, lobbies and gate posts, where a vehicle has to stop before it reaches the people.

  • Brick, stone and concrete walls built by Johnson Services Company in Texas

    Brick, stone and concrete walls

    Masonry perimeters and custom stone columns on footings engineered for Texas clay, and precast concrete fence where sound and security both matter.

  • Fiber cement, cedar and vinyl screening built by Johnson Services Company in Texas

    Fiber cement, cedar and vinyl screening

    Dumpster, mechanical and utility enclosures, and the screen fence a landlord or a city frontage rule asks for.

Nobody in Texas puts more crews on a perimeter, so the date on your schedule is the date the fence goes up

  • You send the drawings, we price the drawings

    Send the plan set, the spec and the schedule. We price what is on the sheet and we tell you where the sheet and the site disagree. A missing detail becomes a question before the number, never a change order after the award.

  • The schedule is the thing we are actually selling

    Most fence companies run one to three crews, so a long perimeter becomes a queue. We run more than a hundred out of seven Texas yards. That is what lets us hold a date on thousands of feet of line, and hold it again when your pour slips a week.

  • One person owns your job from walk to punch list

    You get a name and a number for the whole job. Every crew on your site works to that person and carries the same spec sheet on every stretch of fence. You never explain your site twice, and you never chase which crew was told what.

  • These guys are great 😊 👍 They charged almost $900.00 less than three other companies for the same metal, coating and paint for my black metal fence in Del Webb of The Woodlands…Thanks Matthew.

Questions we get asked before the award

How big a perimeter can you staff?

A data center compound runs past a mile of line in two or three fence types, and that is a scheduling job to us rather than a stretch. A hundred crews out of seven yards means the crews on your site come from your metro, and a second crew is a phone call away when the schedule moves.

Do you hold a bid price if the start slips?

The bid prices the drawings, and it names the footing, the gate operators and the tear-out rather than burying them. Tell us when the slab will be ready and we will tell you what holds and for how long. Steel moves; the labor number does not.

Who is responsible for the gate operator meeting UL 325?

We are, when we install it. Every powered gate we hang carries an operator listed to UL 325, built to its ASTM F2200 usage class, with two independent entrapment protections in each direction of travel and monitored sensors. A motor bolted onto an existing fence line does not pass, and we will say so.

Does a commercial fence need a permit in Texas?

Often, and the rules are the city's. Houston asks for a permit on masonry at any height and on any fence over eight feet, and Austin above seven. San Antonio permits a commercial fence on height alone and wants an engineer's wind design over eight feet. We check the rule for your address and file the permit.

Will you work nights and weekends on an operating site?

Yes. A yard, a campus or a shopping center keeps running while we build, so the plan starts with access and traffic rather than with the fence. Crews stage where your people are not, every opening we take out has a route, and the crew closes off the work area before it leaves each day.
