Kaneohe fence materials are defined under ROH Sec. 21-4.60, recognizing wrought iron, wire, wood, vinyl, plastic, and masonry. The high-rainfall windward climate favors treated or naturally rot-resistant materials.
ROH 21-4.60 defines 'fence' to include wrought iron, wire, wood, vinyl, plastic, and masonry with post foundations. Kaneohe's frequent windward rainfall accelerates decay and corrosion, so galvanized or stainless hardware, pressure-treated lumber, or tropical hardwoods are recommended. There are no ordinance-level prohibited materials, but barbed wire and electrified fencing are generally disallowed in residential zones. Masonry walls over 30 inches trigger permitting and engineering. Some communities near MCBH or in planned subdivisions have HOA design guidelines dictating color, material, and style beyond what ROH requires. Verify HOA rules before purchasing materials.
Prohibited or substandard materials can trigger removal orders. HOA material violations are enforced privately through recorded covenants and fines.
