Norman zoning code specifies approved fence materials. Residential zones allow wood, vinyl, chain-link, wrought iron, and tubular steel. Chain-link may be restricted in front yards. Barbed wire prohibited in residential zones. Electric fences restricted to agricultural areas. HOAs in suburban OKC and Tulsa metro frequently require specific materials and prohibit chain-link. Fence “good side” typically faces outward toward neighbors. Wind resistance important in Oklahoma’s climate.
