Local Guidelines
Fence Rules & Permits in Cerritos, CA

A few things to consider before you install a fence in Cerritos. These are general guidelines — always confirm current requirements with the City before you start.

📏
Front Yard Height
Within 5 feet of the front property line, fences and walls are limited to 30 inches, measured from the top of the adjacent street curb. A decorative fence — wrought iron, wood, vinyl, or decorative masonry — may reach 5 feet if it sits at least 5 feet back from the front property line and stays open above the first 30 inches.
🧱
Side & Rear Yard Height
Interior side and rear property lines call for a masonry block perimeter wall of at least 6 feet, capped at 8 feet. Walls along an arterial street run 6 feet 6 inches to 8 feet, and chain link is not permitted except as temporary construction fencing.
📋
When You Need a Permit
Every new wall needs written approval from the Director of Community Development, and any new or replacement block wall taller than 30 inches also requires a building permit. That 30-inch trigger applies to retaining walls too.
🚦
Corner Lots & Sight Lines
Where the property line curves around a corner, fences and walls within 5 feet of that arc are held to 18 inches so drivers and pedestrians keep a clear view. The City separately prohibits anything at an intersection that blocks cross-visibility.
Good to Know
If your home is part of an HOA, check your community's CC&Rs before installing — many HOAs add their own material and height rules on top of the City's. Building a pool or spa? California's Pool Safety Act (Health & Safety Code §115922–115923) requires at least two independent, approved drowning-prevention features, such as a 60-inch enclosure. Fence codes can change, so we always recommend confirming current requirements with the Cerritos Department of Community Development before you start. Have questions about your property? Contact Legacy Fence and we'll help you sort it out.

Outstanding! We just had a 6' redwood fence installed at the back of our property. The installation team was on time, clean, efficient, incredibly fast, and really nice guys. The finished product is amazing!

From start to finish, these guys were amazing. Very responsive from the first call, friendly and knowledgeable — the fence is solid and fits in perfectly with our vintage craftsman house. I could not recommend them enough.
