Athletic Field Fencing
Athletic Fields of America installs fencing systems for athletic fields, complexes, and recreation facilities across the Northeast. From chain-link perimeter fencing to decorative outfield walls and protective backstops, we handle every type of fencing a sports facility needs — engineered for safety, designed for the site, and built to last.
What We Install
Our fencing projects typically include:
- Chain-link perimeter fencing — galvanized and vinyl-coated, in heights from 4 feet to 20 feet or more
- Backstops — for baseball, softball, and multi-use fields, with proper overhang and structural framing
- Outfield fencing and walls — chain-link, padded, or decorative options sized to the field
- Decorative ornamental fencing — for high-visibility entrances, perimeters, and architectural sites
- Safety netting and ball netting — protecting parking areas, neighboring properties, and spectator zones
- Gates and access control — single, double, and rolling gates for vehicles, equipment, and crowd management
- Tennis, pickleball, and court enclosures — full-height fencing engineered for racket sports
Built for the Site
Fencing isn’t a commodity. The right fence depends on what it’s protecting, who’s using it, and what the site looks like. A backstop behind home plate has different structural requirements than a perimeter fence around a recreation complex. A 20-foot outfield fence needs different bracing than a 6-foot perimeter. We size, spec, and install fencing systems based on the actual use case — not a one-size-fits-all template.
Coordinated with the Full Project
Fencing decisions affect the rest of the project. The fence line determines where the dugouts go, how the bleachers are positioned, where the lighting poles can stand, and how spectators move through the facility. When AFOA handles the full field build, the fencing is designed alongside everything else — not bolted on at the end after layout decisions are already locked in.
That coordination matters for tight sites, accessibility requirements, and projects where every foot of space counts.
Safety and Access
We design fencing systems with safety and access in mind:
- Spectator separation — Keeping fans clear of play and field of view obstructions.
- ADA-accessible gates — Sized and positioned for wheelchair access throughout the facility.
- Emergency egress — Crash-bar gates and panic-bar exits where required by code.
- Crowd management — Rolling and sliding gates for high-traffic entry points.
