Northeast · Sussex County
Sussex County is northwest New Jersey at its most rural — Sparta, Vernon, Andover, Hardyston, Wantage, Stillwater, Frankford. Lake communities like Lake Mohawk and Lake Hopatcong sit alongside working horse farms, orchards, and the largest unbroken stretch of black-bear and deer country in the state. Our nearly invisible fence systems are sized for that wildlife pressure without changing the look of the land.
Local wildlife
Sussex County has the densest deer and black-bear populations in New Jersey. Coyote and bobcat sightings are now routine across Vernon, Hardyston, and Wantage, and tick-borne disease pressure is severe — physical containment matters here.
Lots & terrain
Lake-community lots around Sparta and Lake Mohawk typically run a half-acre to two acres; rural and equestrian parcels in Andover, Wantage, and Stillwater stretch to 5–50+ acres.
Tuned to Sussex County-area pests
Deer, rabbits, groundhogs, and woodchucks each need a different fence spec. We design garden enclosures for the specific pressure on your Sussex County property.
Tight mesh at ground level
Stops rabbits and groundhogs at the base while keeping deer out at full height — one fence, every threat.
Walk-in gates that actually work
Wide, latching gates that fit a wheelbarrow — designed for the way Sussex County 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 Sussex County property without overbuilding.
The Sussex County reality
Sussex County-area gardens get hit from three directions at once. Westchester, Bergen, and Hudson Valley deer browse year-round and have no functional predators. Rabbits exploit any mesh wider than 1 inch at ground level. Groundhogs tunnel under fencing that isn't aproned. The conventional answers — chicken wire, plastic netting, decorative borders — fail against all three within a single season. By August most NY/NJ kitchen gardens that started the year hopeful are stems and stakes.
Our garden fence is a single integrated system that handles all three pressures: 7.5–8 ft of black mesh against deer, tight bottom mesh against rabbits, and a buried or laid-flat apron in groundhog zones. The visual profile is low enough that it passes ARB review across NY/NJ HOAs that block conventional garden fencing. Wide self-latching gates fit a wheelbarrow. Once installed, the garden actually performs the way you designed it to.

What to expect on the logistics side of a Sussex County-area install.
Most Northeast towns regulate fence height and require a simple zoning permit for anything over 6 ft. HOAs in upscale suburbs often require ARB review. Pulling permits and securing HOA approval is the homeowner's responsibility — we'll provide spec sheets and renderings on request to support your application, and our low-visual-impact systems are generally well received.
We install year-round in the Northeast, including through winter. Spring and fall book up first; winter installs (Dec–Feb) often have the shortest lead times and the same warranty.
The four most common reasons Sussex County-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.
