WHAT YOU GET WITH RKC
Every Overland Park job starts with a free on-site estimate and ends with a fence the ARB and the city inspector both sign off on. Four things are standard on every install — no upcharge for ARB submission, no surprise on premium-spec materials, and no handoff to a separate stain crew six months later.
Lionsgate, Deer Creek, Nottingham Forest, Windsor Hills — each board has its own preferences on drawing scale, approved stain brands, and gate hardware callouts. We file the elevation, materials list, and color sample in the format your specific committee expects. Most Overland Park ARBs run 10 to 21 days; we don't break ground until your approval letter arrives.
South OP's sloped daylight-basement lots stack wind load on top of 80+ freeze-thaw cycles. We set every post 36 inches deep in wet-poured concrete with bell-bottom footings, and on long runs facing greenbelt or golf-course exposure we sleeve Postmaster steel inside the cedar cladding. The fence reads traditional from the curb; the structure holds for decades.
Several premium OP boards publish a specific approved stain brand and color list. We bring those exact products to the estimate, register your warranty under the right manufacturer at final, and stay on the 2-year re-coat cycle in-house. No drift to a different stain four years from now when a different crew shows up.
We walk every Overland Park fence with you before collecting the balance — gate swing, latch function, finished-side orientation, post plumb on every run. If something needs fixing, we fix it before invoice. Warranty calls, storm-damage assessments, and gate-alignment tune-ups handled by the same crew that installed the fence.
PERMITS, CODE & ARB
Three things shape every Overland Park project: the city permit and sight-triangle setback, the ARB architectural review, and the post depth that survives 80+ JoCo freeze-thaw cycles. We handle all three as part of the estimate. Here's the practical version of what each one means for your job.
Overland Park requires a permit for every new fence and for replacements covering more than 50% of the existing run. Rear and side yards cap at 6 feet; front yards cap at 4 feet non-opaque. Corner lots carry a strict sight-triangle setback that can push the installable fence line 15 to 30 feet behind the property line. We verify the setback at the permit counter before quoting — the number you see reflects the fence you can legally install.
Nearly every post-1990 Overland Park subdivision has an Architectural Review Board with binding authority. We prepare the full packet to your specific committee's format — elevation drawings at the requested scale, materials list with manufacturer specs, approved-list stain brand and color, gate hardware callouts. Blue Valley boards typically run 10 to 14 days; Lionsgate and other premium boards can push 21 days.
Blue Valley winters log 80 to 90 freeze-thaw cycles. Every Overland Park post we set goes 36 inches deep in wet-poured concrete with bell-bottom footings — the footing is wider at the base than the top, so the active frozen layer can't lift it. On wind-exposed greenbelt and golf-course-facing runs, we sleeve Postmaster steel inside the cedar for additional rigidity at no visual cost.
WHAT WE INSTALL IN OVERLAND PARK
One Johnson County fence contractor for every material and every gate type — built and stained by the same crew. Each link below opens a dedicated Overland Park page with pricing, ARB-specific notes, and neighborhood context. Whether you're submitting to the Lionsgate review board or replacing 1970s cedar near 95th and Metcalf, the service detail you need is one click away.
Premium Western Red Cedar with Postmaster steel posts hidden inside — the spec most south Overland Park architectural review boards approve for Blue Valley homes.
Overland Park details
White, tan, and gray vinyl privacy — present in north Overland Park but still a tough sell in older elite HOAs that prefer stained cedar.
Overland Park details
Galvanized and vinyl-coated chain link for commercial sites along the 135th Street corridor. Note: nearly every Overland Park residential HOA prohibits chain link.
Overland Park details
Powder-coated steel and aluminum — the dominant style in Lionsgate and other south OP neighborhoods where HOAs preserve golf course and greenbelt views.
Overland Park details
Picture-frame cedar and board-on-board privacy — engineered to hold against the 25+ mph gusts that hit west-facing Deer Creek and Windsor Hills lots.
Overland Park details
Perimeter security, dumpster enclosures, and anti-climb panels for the Corporate Woods area, the Sprint/T-Mobile campus corridor, and retail strips along 151st.
Overland Park details
Code-compliant pool fencing — 48-inch minimum height, self-closing self-latching hardware, non-climbable ornamental panels to Overland Park code.

We prepare the full Architectural Review Board (ARB) submission — elevation drawings, premium materials spec, stain brand — for Lionsgate, Deer Creek, Nottingham Forest.
Overland Park details
Frost-heave correction is the #1 Overland Park call — 80+ freeze-thaw cycles a year lift shallow posts. We pull them, re-set to 36 inches, rebuild the section.
Overland Park details
Walk gates, double-drive gates, and custom ornamental iron gates with welded steel frames — built to hold for Overland Park's tighter side-yard clearances.
Overland Park details
Semi-transparent penetrating stain applied by the same crew that installs the fence. We work with the specific brands required by Leawood-adjacent ARB boards.

Different blocks, different rules — ARB scrutiny, lot grade, and approved-material lists all change the install. Practical notes on the Overland Park subdivisions we work in most often. If you don't see yours, we still install there — these are the ones with details worth flagging upfront.
Wood privacy fences are explicitly discouraged by the HOA in favor of ornamental iron or high-end composite. We install powder-coated black aluminum and steel to preserve the 'open' feel the architectural review board protects. ARB submission included in every estimate.
High-end cedar privacy with picture-frame construction and top caps is the approved style here. We use Postmaster steel posts sleeved inside the cedar to combat frost heave on these sloped lots — a spec that survives the 80+ freeze-thaw cycles the Blue Valley corridor sees every year.
Established 1970s neighborhood where the original cedar fences have reached end of life. Full replacements dominate our calendar here — homeowners want the same traditional look but with modern 36-inch post depth and updated gate hardware that the originals never had.
Rolling lots south of 135th with significant grade changes and daylight basement setups. Fence lines require stepped or racked construction to hold straight. We walk the full line before quoting so the grade transitions are priced into the number, not discovered at install time.
Mix of 1960s ranch homes and infill teardowns. Older cedar on the 1960s houses needs complete replacement; the teardown lots often want modern horizontal slat cedar or ornamental iron to match the new architecture. Two very different jobs on the same street.
Older 1950s-60s lots with mature trees and a lot of aging chain link slowly being converted to cedar. Tight sight lines, close neighbors, and existing utility lines from the original builds mean every 811 locate matters. Fences here take longer but the soil is familiar Johnson County clay.
Landmarks near our Overland Park service areas: Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead, Overland Park Arboretum, Scheels Soccer Complex, Oak Park Mall, and the Convention Center. Our crews travel I-435, US-69, Metcalf, Quivira, and 135th Street daily from our Olathe home base — if you're near any of them, we're a short drive.

We went with vinyl because we did not want to deal with staining every few years. Josh helped us pick a style that met our HOA in south OP and handled the architectural review submission. The fence looks fantastic and the install was clean — no mess left behind.
