Custom Fence Design in Tulsa
Request an Estimate (918) 882-4622Standard fence templates work for many properties, but not all. Unusual lot shapes, challenging terrain, distinctive architecture, or specific functional requirements sometimes call for something designed from scratch. Custom fence design addresses the situations where off-the-shelf solutions fall short.
Custom design is not about complexity for its own sake. It is about creating fencing that actually fits your property and needs. Maybe you have a steep slope that requires special treatment. Perhaps your home's style demands fence details that match existing trim or ironwork. Or possibly you need a configuration that standard panel layouts cannot achieve.
Fence Bee offers custom fence design services for Tulsa homeowners who need more than standard solutions provide. We start with understanding what you need, assess your property's challenges and opportunities, and design fencing that addresses both. Then we build it with the same quality we bring to every project.

Options and Materials
Custom fence design can incorporate various materials and features:
Custom design starts with what you need and works backward to how we achieve it. We are experienced at solving unusual fencing challenges.
The FenceBee Process
Custom fence projects follow a deliberate process:
- 1
Initial Meeting
We discuss what you want to achieve, what constraints exist, and what ideas you already have. This shapes everything that follows.
- 2
Site Evaluation
We thoroughly assess your property, noting terrain, architecture, landscaping, and any features that affect design.
- 3
Concept Development
We develop design concepts addressing your needs and site conditions. Sketches or drawings help you visualize options.
- 4
Design Refinement
We refine the design based on your feedback, specifying materials, dimensions, and details until you are satisfied.
- 5
Detailed Estimate
Custom work requires accurate quoting. You receive a comprehensive estimate covering all aspects of the project.
- 6
Fabrication and Sourcing
We coordinate any custom fabrication and source specialty materials. This may take longer than standard projects.
- 7
Installation
Our crews execute the design carefully, paying attention to the details that make custom work distinctive.
- 8
Completion
We walk through the finished project with you, making any final adjustments and confirming your satisfaction.
Timelines and Scheduling
Custom fence projects take longer than standard installations due to design development and any special fabrication required.
Design development typically takes 1-3 weeks depending on complexity and how many iterations you and we go through. This is time well spent to ensure the final design is exactly right.
Custom fabrication adds additional time varying widely based on what is needed. Simple modifications may add a week; complex metalwork might require several weeks.
Installation itself may take longer than standard projects if the design involves unusual construction methods or special care.
Total project timelines typically run 6-10 weeks from initial consultation to completion, though simple custom work may be faster and complex projects may take longer.
Pricing Factors
Custom fence pricing reflects the additional work involved. Factors include:
- Design development time and complexity
- Custom fabrication requirements
- Material choices and any specialty sourcing
- Installation complexity beyond standard methods
- Linear feet and overall project size
- Site conditions affecting installation
- Any special features or integrations
Custom work costs more than standard fencing because it requires more time, skill, and coordination. We provide detailed estimates so you understand exactly what you are paying for and can make informed decisions.
Tulsa-Specific Considerations
Custom fencing in Tulsa must still handle local conditions. Design creativity does not override practical requirements.
Oklahoma weather affects all fencing. Custom designs must account for wind, heat, moisture, and temperature swings. We ensure that distinctive appearance comes with practical durability.
Soil conditions, property lines, and local codes still apply. Custom designs work within these constraints while achieving your goals.
Some custom elements may require coordination with the city or HOA. We help identify any approvals needed and factor that into project timelines.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much more does custom fencing cost?
It varies widely based on what you need. Simple customizations may add 20-30% to standard costs. Elaborate designs with custom fabrication can cost significantly more. We provide specific estimates after understanding your project.
Can you match my existing fence or architecture?
Often yes. We can design fencing to complement existing elements, match architectural details, or extend existing fence in compatible style.
How do I explain what I want?
Start with describing the problems you want to solve or the look you want to achieve. Photos of fences you like help. We ask questions to understand your vision and translate it into buildable designs.
What if I do not know exactly what I want?
Many custom projects start with a general idea rather than a specific design. We help develop concepts based on your property and preferences, refining until you find what works.
Can I make changes during installation?
Minor adjustments are usually possible. Major design changes during installation are difficult and expensive. The design phase exists to finalize decisions before building begins.
