Will a deer fence pass ARB review in Shelter Island?

In our experience, yes — we pass first-round review across Westchester, Bergen, and the Hudson Valley regularly. The low-visual-impact mesh is the reason.

How tall does the fence need to be?

7.5 to 8 feet. Going shorter to satisfy a perceived HOA preference is a self-defeating compromise — deer go right over it.

Will it ruin the view from my Shelter Island property?

No — that's the entire point of the system. Black polypropylene mesh visually disappears against trees and shrubs from 15 feet away.

Can I fence just part of the property?

Yes. Many Shelter Island-area clients fence the garden, orchard, or rear lawn rather than the full perimeter. We design to protect what actually needs protecting.

Deer Fence designed for Shelter Island

Shelter Island's Ram Island and Dering Harbor properties sit inside one of the highest deer-density zones on the East Coast. Full exclusion is essential.

Planning your enclosure

Plan a continuous enclosure around the planting area. Height, gate closure and gaps at changes in terrain all matter; no fence is a guarantee against every animal.

Regional planning guidance for The Hamptons; the layout and conditions of your own property still need review.

One- to five-acre wooded and waterfront parcels.

Deer pressure

Very high

Drives mesh height, ground-line detailing, and gate design for every Shelter Island project.

Local notes

Permits & HOA: Fence height, setbacks and approval requirements vary by municipality and property. Check with your local authority and HOA before installation. Obtaining permits and submitting HOA paperwork are the homeowner's responsibility; specification sheets and renderings are available on request for your application.

Why Shelter Island homeowners choose our deer fence

Sized for Shelter Island deer pressure

We size our deer fences to the actual local deer behavior — herd size, jump pressure, and seasonal browsing patterns specific to the Shelter Island region.

Nearly invisible from the road

Black polypropylene mesh disappears against a wooded backdrop — protects your gardens without turning your yard into a compound.

Protects 6-figure landscape investments

Mature ornamentals, vegetable gardens, fruit trees — one season of deer browsing can erase years of work in Shelter Island yards.

Built for regional climate

Galvanized hardware and freeze-thaw-rated tensioners hold up through decades of Shelter Island-area weather.
