Key points to know about pool fence regulations in Wilmington:

• Permit Required: A zoning permit is required before installation. Some properties may also need a New Hanover County building permit, depending on location and design.
• Location Restrictions: Fences cannot be installed within drainage easements, public rights-of-way, or utility access areas without approval.
• Material Rules: Chain link, barbed wire, exposed cinder block, and electric fences are prohibited in front yards. Only finished, structurally sound materials may be used.

• Front Yard Height Limits: Front yard fences are limited to 4 feet. Up to 6 feet may be allowed along thoroughfares with transparency and setback conditions.
