Let customers speak for us
OMG...I absolutely love these panels. Super Study. My animals will no longer be able to chew through our patio fencing. YIPEE best product yet. It truly completed the look we were looking for.
Worth the wait. Great panels at a good price. Delivery man was awesome !
These are beautiful. Sooo much better than the pre-made panels Home Depot sells
My second order of three, so far. Lovely people to deal with, excellent product.
We ordered three Fort Knox panels for a privacy wall. They were easy to move, easy to build before moving them into place. Once build they look fantastic, very solid and easily installed as they measured exactly 8' wide and 6' tall once built. We used 10' 4"X4" post so we could add a little more height then trimmed the post and added post caps.
We'd like to give a special shout out to the Barrier Boss Customer Service team for being so responsive as I was getting anxious to take delivery and get them installed before my hip replacement. They said delivery would be 6-8 weeks, they delivery in about 6 weeks so I had the post in the ground and ready. Following the video instruction the install was simple, taking about two hours to build and install - amazing. We highly recommend working with BarrierBoss and being patient as the wait time is well worth it. We love this product, it looks amazing, we will be back for more fencing in the future. Thanks BarrierBoss for making the best fencing available in the market today.
Good stuff! Worked exactly for what we needed, and looks fantastic. I can't believe I couldn't find this stuff closer to home (Alberta) but it is what it is, delivery was easy anyways so thanks for that.
Great product and great service!
I ordered several framed and finished hog wire panels as part of a deer fence project. I thought the cost was very reasonable... Due to tariffs, etc. they took a quite while to come, and I started to get paranoid I'd been scammed by a fake website (it is pretty impressive)! Thanks to CS for sending that video, very reassuring...Once the product was delivered I was completely impressed. Delivery was professional and at a reasonable cost...., The quality is amazing... My fence installer wanted to know-- who made these?!!
Looks great on my patio.
Absolutely LOVE them!! Great quality great honest staff. My fence is coming out beautifully.
Awesome product! Awesome customer services! Kept us out to date during the transport process.
During my order, the tariff was put in effect. This caused my order to be delayed until th could figure it out. They were honest with me and told me what was going on.They kept me informed during this process. When I received the shipment, the driver was very professional and nice. The product that I received was exactlywhat I was wanting. Thank you. If I ever need anything again, I will be calling them!!
This is superb quality fencing material. Even though the material took 2 months to ship, once loaded it arrived without a hitch. Thank you Barrier Boss. I’ll be back when I need something else.
