CHARLESTON, SC – June 25, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
Carolina Fence Company, a family-owned fence and gate contractor led by owner Alex Buckman, has completed more than 3,000 fencing projects across the Charleston and Summerville, South Carolina, area. The milestone arrives as the company marks 21 years of work for Lowcountry homeowners and businesses, supported by a team with more than a century of combined trade experience.
The company installs fencing throughout Charleston’s neighborhoods and the surrounding Lowcountry, on projects that range from single-family privacy fences to large commercial perimeter systems. Its catalog reflects regional building styles, including the Charleston-style privacy fence and the Summers Corner fence, along with picket fences common in historic districts and pool fences built to South Carolina code. Larger and equestrian properties often call for board rail, split rail, or hog wire fencing, each of which the team builds as a standard part of its work.
According to Buckman, the milestone reflects steady demand for fencing suited to the coastal environment. “Reaching 3,000 installations comes down to matching the right material and design to each property and the conditions it faces,” said Alex Buckman, owner of Carolina Fence Company. “In the Lowcountry, that means accounting for salt air, humidity, and storm season on every project.”
Material selection carries added weight along the coast, where salt air, humidity, and hurricane-season storms test fencing over time. The company’s wood program is built around YellaWood pressure-treated lumber, which carries a Lifetime Residential and Agricultural Limited Warranty against fungal decay and termite damage for above-ground, ground-contact, and fresh-water-contact applications. For property owners moving away from wood, the lineup includes Trex fencing, while steel and pipe fencing draws on Maner and SPS Fencing, also known as Stevens Pipe and Steel, two regional suppliers with distribution across the Southeast. The company notes that careful post setting and corrosion-resistant hardware help these materials hold up in coastal soil and salt air.
On the commercial and industrial side, Carolina Fence Company installs security and privacy fencing for sites that require a defined, durable perimeter, using materials that range from wood and composite to vinyl, chain link, iron, ornamental iron, and ornamental aluminum. The company also fabricates and installs gates in-house. Residential gate work includes swing, slide, cantilever, bi-fold, pedestrian, decorative, and retractable styles, while commercial projects add vertical pivot, rolling, chain link, and wire mesh systems in steel, aluminum, wood, vinyl, and chain link. Safety feature installation, customization, and permitting assistance are part of each gate project.
Hurricane season shapes much of the fencing conversation in South Carolina, and the company keeps emergency hurricane and storm repair on its standing service menu, with response available around the clock during severe weather. It also offers fence tear-out and disposal for property owners removing damaged or aging systems, along with staining, painting, and sealing services for existing fences worth preserving.
Carolina Fence Company is a member of the American Fence Association and holds an A-plus rating with the Better Business Bureau. The company is fully insured, and its installations are covered by a three-year workmanship warranty, with YellaWood lifetime limited coverage applying to qualifying lumber-based projects.
Beyond its project work, the company sponsors the City of Charleston Girls Basketball Program at the James Island Recreation Complex, part of its ongoing involvement in the communities it serves.
