South Jordan allows wood, vinyl, masonry, wrought iron, and chain link in most zones under Title 17, though HOAs in Daybreak and similar communities typically restrict materials and colors.
Title 17 of the Municipal Code permits a broad range of fence materials including wood, vinyl/PVC, masonry (brick, block, stone), wrought iron, and chain link. Chain link is generally prohibited or discouraged in front yards of residential zones and often restricted in HOA communities. Barbed wire, razor wire, and electric fences are prohibited in residential zones (agricultural zones have exceptions). The 'finished side' rule is common — when a fence has a structural side and a finished side, the finished side generally faces the neighbor or street. HOAs like Daybreak Master Association enforce detailed palette and material standards.
