Black Forest isn’t a typical subdivision. Most homes sit on 2.5 to 5+ acres of ponderosa pine and meadow northeast of Colorado Springs, with horses, dogs, wildlife and long property lines. A fence here has to work with the land — following slopes, winding around trees and leaving room for the forest.
We’ve built ranch rail, wire-mesh and privacy fences all over Black Forest, and we plan every job around what your property actually needs: keeping a dog in near the house, marking a long boundary, fencing a horse pasture, or adding privacy from the road.
The 2013 Black Forest Fire was one of the most destructive wildfires in Colorado history, and many homeowners have rebuilt with defensible space in mind. A wood fence attached directly to your house can carry fire right to the siding — so we plan placement carefully.
Where a fence meets the house we can use a steel gate or metal panel section so wood doesn’t touch the structure.
We route fence lines to protect mature trees and keep clear zones for defensible space and mitigation work.
Wide drive gates and smart gate placement so fire and service vehicles can reach every part of your lot.
A few of the fences we’ve built for Black Forest homeowners.
Black Forest has a feel all its own — tall pines, quiet dirt roads and neighbors who still wave as you drive by. It’s only minutes from northeast Colorado Springs, but it feels like the mountains.
Our crew enjoys the trails at Black Forest Regional Park and Fox Run Regional Park, and we always appreciate driving past the historic Black Forest Log School. Seeing the forest grow back after 2013 — and helping families rebuild their properties — is one of the most rewarding parts of our work.
We also serve nearby Monument, Gleneagle, Falcon and Colorado Springs.
Black Forest is unincorporated El Paso County, so county zoning rules apply rather than city rules. Most standard fences don’t need a building permit, but height, placement and any subdivision covenants still matter — we check them before we build.
We auger post holes and set posts in concrete below the frost zone. Where roots or rock get in the way, we adjust the line or use different footing methods rather than skipping depth.
Usually, yes. We plan the fence line around mature pines and can leave gaps or use shorter sections to protect root zones.
A ranch rail fence with welded wire mesh is the most popular choice — it keeps pets in, looks natural in the forest and costs less than full privacy fencing over long runs.
During business hours we reply within about an hour, and most on-site estimates happen the same day or within 24 hours.
Black Forest homes deserve a deck that fits the forest. We build custom decks, stairs and pergolas on acreage homes among the ponderosa pines — and we’re happy to talk through low-maintenance composite decking and metal railings for homeowners thinking about defensible space.
Decks in El Paso County typically require a building permit through the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department. DENFENCE is licensed by PPRBD (#26981) — we prepare the drawings, pull the permit and schedule inspections.
