Inglewood limits front yard fences to 42 inches and side/rear yard fences to 6 feet. Fences on corner lots may have additional height restrictions for traffic visibility at intersections.
Under Inglewood's zoning code, fences in the front yard setback area are limited to 42 inches in height. Side and rear yard fences may be up to 6 feet tall. Corner lots have sight triangle requirements where fences must be lower to maintain visibility for vehicles and pedestrians. Retaining walls may have separate height limits. Fences exceeding standard limits require a variance from the Planning Division.
Fences exceeding height limits are subject to code enforcement notices and may need to be reduced or removed at the owner's expense.
