Oklahoma County cities allow wood, vinyl, wrought iron, and chain-link. OKC restricts chain-link front yards. Barbed wire banned in residential zones. Wind-rated construction strongly advised.
Oklahoma City Municipal Code §59-9100 and the zoning code specify approved fence materials by district. Residential zones (R-1, R-2, R-3) allow wood, vinyl, wrought iron, tubular steel, and chain-link. Chain-link is prohibited in front yards under OKC §59-9100(D). Edmond Code §22-4 bans chain-link in front yards entirely. Barbed wire is prohibited in all residential zones (OKC §59-9100(F)); restricted to agricultural (AA) and industrial zones. Electric fences are allowed only in agricultural areas. HOAs in Oak Tree, Gaillardia, Fairview Farm, and Edmond country-club communities commonly require cedar, stone, or wrought iron and prohibit chain-link and vinyl. The "good side" must face the neighbor's property. Wind resistance is critical — Oklahoma averages 12 mph sustained winds with 60+ mph gusts during spring storms; use 4x4 minimum posts set in concrete below frost line (24 inches).
Non-compliant materials: code compliance notice, $100 to $500 fine (OKC §59-9100), replacement may be required. HOA fines $25 to $250 per CC&Rs.
