Orland Park permits wood, vinyl, ornamental metal, chain-link, and masonry fences. Barbed wire, razor wire, and electric fences are prohibited in residential districts. Chain-link in front yards is generally not allowed.
Orland Park's Land Development Code restricts fence materials to maintain neighborhood aesthetics. Approved residential materials include cedar/redwood/treated wood, vinyl/PVC, ornamental aluminum or wrought iron, chain-link (typically rear/side yards only), and masonry (brick, stone, decorative block). Barbed wire, razor wire, electrified fencing, and similar hazardous materials are prohibited in all residential zones. Chain-link in front yards is generally restricted; if allowed it must be coated and decorative. Construction-grade snow fence and temporary plastic fencing are not permitted as permanent fencing. Many Orland Park subdivisions further restrict materials via HOA covenants (commonly requiring wood or ornamental aluminum only). Commercial properties may use chain-link with privacy slats. Contact Orland Park Building Division at (708) 403-6200.
Installing prohibited materials may require complete removal at owner expense. Code violation fines typically start at $100. HOA violations are separately enforceable.
