The 69,000-square-foot main branch is a full-service civic anchor in the heart of Central Beaverton, steps from The Round and the Beaverton Central MAX platform. We work on the properties around it — the older bungalows and craftsman homes on small grid lots, the character residences along the downtown streets, and the small shops and offices that line the district — not the library building itself. There is no affiliation here; the library simply marks the part of town we know best.
Our work centers on the tight residential and commercial grid that fans out from 5th and Hall: the homes along SW 5th Street, the blocks off SW Hall Boulevard, the lots running toward SW Farmington Road, and the older Old Town streets that fill in between. These are some of the oldest parcels in Beaverton — compact lots laid out decades before the suburbs spread west, with mature trees, established gardens, and houses set close to one another. That history is exactly what makes downtown fencing its own kind of job.
Closeness defines this part of town. Homes sit near sidewalks, neighbors share narrow side yards, and small commercial frontages butt up against residential blocks. A well-built fence does real work here — screening a yard from foot traffic near The Round, softening the edge between a craftsman home and a busy downtown street, or marking a clean boundary on a parcel whose lot lines were drawn long ago. We build the nearby homes and businesses, from character residences to small downtown storefronts, and with Highway 217 and the MAX line minutes away our trucks stay close and our scheduling stays tight.
Matched to the bungalows, craftsman homes, and small lots around the Beaverton City Library — styles chosen to fit downtown's older architecture and the Pacific Northwest climate.
A 6-foot good-neighbor cedar fence screens close-set downtown backyards from sidewalks and alleys, with rot-resistant heartwood set above the wet soil line. See cedar privacy fence installation.
A classic picket fence suits the front yard of a craftsman or bungalow, while taller wood styles enclose the rear. Browse wood fence installation options.
Powder-coated aluminum gives character homes a tidy decorative boundary without blocking the view — a fit for civic-adjacent and small commercial frontages. See aluminum & ornamental fence installation.
Aging downtown fences past patching get reset posts, new panels, or a full rebuild matched to the original style. See fence repair and fence replacement.
The shops, offices, and civic-adjacent buildings around the Beaverton City Library have their own fencing needs, and we handle commercial work as readily as residential. We build perimeter and screening fence, trash and equipment enclosures sized to satisfy both landlord and hauler, and swing or rolling gates that clear a tight downtown service area. On a small grid lot every inch counts, so we phase the work to keep a storefront open and access clear while the crew is on site.

From first call to finished fence near the Beaverton City Library — straightforward, with no pressure.
Can you fence a small downtown lot with limited access? Yes — and it is most of what we do near the library. The Old Town grid is built on compact parcels with houses set close together, so the side yard a crew has to carry posts, panels, and a concrete mixer through is often just a few feet wide. We size our equipment and our approach to that reality: panels staged on the street, materials moved by hand down a narrow run, and the work sequenced so we never block a neighbor's drive or the sidewalk longer than we have to. The mature trees and settled landscaping common on these older lots add another wrinkle, since roots can force a post layout to flex around a trunk, and we plan the run to clear established plantings rather than cut into a tree's root zone.
Legacy lot lines are the other thing that sets downtown apart. Many of these parcels were platted generations ago, and the recorded boundary does not always match the old fence, the hedge, or where a neighbor assumes the line falls. Before we dig, we confirm the boundary and, on a shared line, we talk it through with the neighbor so the new fence sits where it belongs and stays there. Beaverton's wet, clay-heavy ground does the rest of the talking: every post goes into a concrete footing with drainage at the base, set roughly a third of its length below grade for a 6-foot fence, because saturated soil loosens shallow-set posts first. Untreated lumber that touches wet earth wicks moisture and rots from the bottom, so cedar gets its rot-resistant heartwood at the base and a clean gap above the soil line.
What fence style suits an older downtown Beaverton home? It depends on the house, and that is the point — a bungalow wants something different from a 1970s infill. A white or stained picket fence reads right on a craftsman front yard and keeps the open, neighborly feel that downtown blocks are known for. A full-height cedar privacy fence does the screening work in the back, where closeness to sidewalks and alleys makes a solid panel worth its keep. Ornamental aluminum splits the difference for owners who want a defined boundary without losing the view of a well-kept garden or a civic-adjacent frontage. We can install a picket or ornamental fence as readily as a privacy run, and we match height and detail to what the architecture asks for.
Because downtown is one of the oldest parts of Beaverton, plenty of lots here carry fences that are past patching and due for replacement. We can match an existing style so a new run blends with what is already there, or modernize a tired fence into clean cedar or aluminum. When a single section leans after a wet stretch, the footing usually gave way rather than the panel, so we reset that post in a deeper footing and the line holds.

Getting a quote is quick. Call (855) 598-3288 and we will schedule an on-site visit at your convenience, often within a day or two for properties in the 97005 downtown core. Staying close to this pocket means we already know which streets have tight side-yard access, where mature trees crowd a property line, and how the grid around 5th and Hall fills up around library and transit hours — so we plan digging and deliveries to avoid the crunch. You get a clear, written estimate with no obligation, and because we are a local crew rather than a dispatch from across the metro, a team already working one downtown job can often swing by a neighbor's property the same day rather than booking a week out.
