The #1 fence company in Texas
Apartment and Multifamily Fencing
Pool barriers that pass inspection, gated entries on listed operators, the screening the city asks for and the perimeter that separates your property from the street, built while the leasing office stays open.
The walk is free, and the plan starts with your residents' parking rather than with the fence.

A multifamily property needs four fences and usually buys them in the same order: the pool barrier the inspector signs, the gated entry the leasing office sells, the screening around the dumpsters and the mechanical yard, and the perimeter that keeps the street on its side of the line. Every one of them goes in while three hundred residents keep coming and going, which is the part most fence companies get wrong.
We build all four, on properties from Katy to Round Rock, with a hundred crews so the pool closes for days rather than a season and a gated entry opens on the date the leasing calendar promised. One person owns the property from the walk to the punch list, and residents never meet a crew that does not know where to park.
What a multifamily property buys from us, in the order it needs it
Ornamental steel and aluminum carry the visible fences, heavier fabric carries the line that backs onto a right of way, and every powered gate carries a listed operator.
Pool barriers that pass inspection
At least 48 inches, no opening a four-inch ball fits through, gates that close and latch on their own, in aluminum around the water so nothing rusts.
Gated entries and access control
Swing or cantilever slide gates on operators listed to UL 325 and built to ASTM F2200 Class II, the multifamily class, with keypads, readers, loops and a knox box for the fire department.
Dumpster and mechanical screening
Cedar, fiber cement or masonry enclosures to the city's screening ordinance, with gates the hauler can open from the truck.
Ornamental steel and aluminum perimeter
The line along the street, in powder coat, with puppy pickets where the property allows dogs.
Privacy fence on the back line
Six or eight foot cedar, vinyl or fiber cement where the property backs onto a neighbor or a road.
Breezeway, patio and balcony dividers
The short fences that make a ground-floor patio a patio, finished the same on both faces.
Built to the pool code and the gate standard your insurer will ask about
A pool barrier is a code item first: height, spacing and a self-closing, self-latching gate, and an inspector who signs it once expects it to still pass at the next inspection. An automated entry gate is a listed system under UL 325, with two independent entrapment protections in each direction of travel and monitored sensors, built to its ASTM F2200 usage class. The federal casualty record behind those rules is why a motor bolted onto an existing gate does not pass and why we will not hang one.
Nobody in Texas puts more crews on a perimeter. On a multifamily property that means the pool barrier goes in over two days rather than two weeks, and the gated entry opens the week the leasing office said it would. Two million feet of fence last year, and one year of craftsmanship on every foot of it.
How the job runs while the property keeps leasing
The plan starts with access and parking, not with the fence. Crews stage where residents do not park, every opening we take out either stays passable or gets a marked temporary route, and the crew closes off the work area before it leaves each day. The pool stays open until the day the barrier swaps, and it reopens the day the inspector signs.
What to send so the bid comes back complete
Send the site plan, a count of the openings, the dates the leasing office needs each area back and your operator preference if the property already has one. Tell us whether the pool has to stay open, because a barrier that comes out mid-season needs a different sequence, and we will build it.
Customers
Twenty thousand fences last year, and not one callback
Johnson Service Co went above and beyond to complete the scope of work we agreed on. I have been a builder for over 20 years and I would highly recommend this company to any clients, friends or family.
Adam K.Google review, Houston North office, August 2025 Mr. Goodgion professionalism is second to none. I would highly recommend using Johnson Services for any commercial or residential jobs.
Mason W.Google review, San Antonio office, January 2026 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
Can you replace the pool barrier without closing the pool for the season?
Yes. The new barrier goes in outside the old one where the deck allows, the swap happens in a day, and the inspection follows. The pool closes for the day of the swap, not the month.
Who maintains the gate operator after you leave?
Your access control vendor or ours, on a service agreement. The operator carries its listing, the documentation comes with the punch list, and the duty class matches the traffic a leasing entry sees.
Do you work around a lease-up date?
Every time. Tell us the date the leasing office needs the entry open and we build the schedule backward from it.
