Protect vegetable beds, ornamentals, and orchard trees from Princeton-area deer, rabbits, and groundhogs.
Free virtual consultation · Clear timeline in your written proposal
Northeast · Princeton
Princeton and the surrounding Mercer and Hunterdon countryside — Hopewell, Pennington, Lawrenceville, Lambertville — combine historic character with serious deer pressure and a strong equestrian and gardening culture. Our nearly invisible fence systems protect mature landscaping and pets while staying respectful of the area's architectural heritage.
Regional planning guidance; your property's conditions and installation eligibility need individual review.
Local wildlife
Central New Jersey deer densities are among the highest in the state, with year-round browsing that wipes out everything from tulip bulbs to mature shrub plantings. Coyote presence has grown across Hunterdon and western Mercer as well.
Lots & terrain
Lots range from in-town Princeton parcels to ten-acre horse properties in Hopewell and Hunterdon. We work comfortably across that full range, including around paddocks and pasture lines.
Tuned to Princeton-area pests
Deer, rabbits, groundhogs, and woodchucks each need a different fence spec. We design garden enclosures for the specific pressure on your Princeton property.
Ground-line details
Mesh spacing and apron details should match the browsing and digging animals affecting your garden.
Walk-in gates that actually work
Wide, latching gates that fit a wheelbarrow — designed for the way Princeton gardeners actually use their gardens.
Compatible with raised beds and orchards
From a 400 sq ft kitchen garden to a 2-acre orchard, we scale the design to your Princeton property without overbuilding.
Plan the enclosure
Lots range from in-town Princeton parcels to ten-acre horse properties in Hopewell and Hunterdon. We work comfortably across that full range, including around paddocks and pasture lines.
Identify which animals are browsing or digging before choosing mesh and ground-line details. Leave practical access for tools, wheelbarrows and seasonal maintenance.

What to expect on the logistics side of a Princeton-area install.
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.
Weather, ground conditions, access and required approvals can affect scheduling. Your written proposal confirms the installation timing for your property.
The four most common reasons Princeton-area homeowners end up replacing a fence twice.
Plastic netting as a deer barrier
Plastic netting tears under deer pressure within weeks. By August the garden is open to everything.
Going to 6 ft to satisfy ARB
Self-defeating compromise. A 6-foot garden fence does nothing for deer. Use the spec sheet we provide to make the case for proper height to your ARB rather than building short.
Skipping the rabbit-grade bottom mesh
Most cheap installs use one mesh size top to bottom. Rabbits exploit anything wider than 1 inch at the ground.
Wrong gate width
If you can't get a wheelbarrow through, you'll prop the gate open. We size every gate to actual garden workflow.
