Stepping It Up

Stepping It Up It's getting late in the building season. Tahoe's crews are stepping it up working on getting to all our customers before the cold, wet weather sets in.

Fall Colors

Posted on by tahoefence

Fall Colors It's mid-October and the leaves are changing around the area. Creating beautiful Fall colors. Tahoe seems to be getting into a similar groove with several tall fence enclosures we've been working on. We're creating our own palette of Fall colors in chain link. Pictured: Green chain link in South Lake Tahoe (El Dorado County.) Brown Slats in Fernley (Lyon County.) Tan slats in Stead (Washoe County.) Grey slatted and black gates in production for Bridgeport (Mono County) and Yerington (Lyon County.) Different slatted wire in staging for ongoing projects.Fall Colors

Go Big

Go Big That time of year when the bears are going big before Winter hits. Likewise, Tahoe's gates are going big as well. Tahoe is installing several large opening, overhead-track cantilever slide gates in Fernley (Lyon County.) Like this 40-foot, double-track gate. Our crews just replaced a 31-foot, double-swing gate out there also. And Tahoe recently completed this install of a 50-foot, double cantilever gate setup in Mound House (Lyon County.) We go big for our customers.Our crews just replaced a 31-foot, double-swing gate out there also.

Picture Perfect

Picture Perfect Like a lot of people, our job isn't easy. It's work! Sometimes the digging is rocky. It could be a difficult build on a steep slope. Or we may have to pack material farther than normal because there's no vehicle access. But every now and then, everything is picture perfect. Tahoe's crews did this 3-rail iron at Glenbrook. Everywhere you look are beautiful views with the Lake in the background. We love Ma Nature for this special place we call Tahoe.

Change of Season

Posted on by tahoefence

Change of Season This weekend marks a change in season. We officially change from Summer to Fall. Like most people, we recognize Autumn by football starting and leaves falling. After this weekend, days will start getting shorter. And the nights longer, in addition to being noticeably cooler. Great time to make sure your vehicle headlights are all working. For Tahoe, our crews need to see to load up material in the morning. And to be seen if coming back in the dark.

A Classic for a Reason

Posted on by tahoefence

A Classic for a Reason What makes something a classic? Is it a tradition of excellence? Or a standard that's stood the test of time since the Greeks and Romans? In the case of ornamental iron, it's a classic for several reasons. It's been around in various forms since the Roman Empire. It has lasting durability. And it's versatile. Ornamental iron can be simple or elegant in its appearance. Pictured: A classic, modern-style ornamental steel fence installed by Tahoe at Stateline (Douglas County.)A Classic for a Reason

Boldly Going

Boldly Going This week back in 1966, Star Trek premiered on TV. That's 57 years of boldly going where no one has gone before. We know because Tahoe has its own resident Trekkie. Not to name names, but Pat has his own enterprising office Lego caricature. His hair is perfect! Pictured: Tahoe's office Lego Trekkie on an estimate call slip box.Boldly Going

Thanks For Voting For Tahoe Fence

Posted on by tahoefence

Thanks For Voting For Tahoe Fence Every Year Tahoe Fence was voted again as one of the top fence companies by the "'Nevada Appeal' Best Of Carson City 2023." Tahoe has been voted one of the best fence companies by the "Nevada Appeal" every year since 2009. And we're the only fence company to be voted as one of the best each and every year since 2009. From all of us, thank you for voting For Tahoe Fence every year! Pictured: Tahoe Fence then and now through the years. Pat's still here (and grouchy unless you talk about his grandkids!) Tahoe is still going out and getting that special order material for our customers. Except now we can fit it on our trucks and trailers. Still using our scrap-made pipe racks. But now they're not piled on top of each other (it was easier to move them whole rather than deal with all the welding again.) And we have an actual shop and buildings. No more working out of horse barns and tack sheds (but we kept the basketball hoop and backboard.)Thanks For Voting For Tahoe Fence Every Year

Taking It to New Heights

Posted on by tahoefence

Taking It to New Heights As with any successful business, Tahoe Fence works to build relationships with our customers. And we're proud of what we do. But we realize that no matter how big, small, complicated, or awesome a project or a fence is, sometimes it's only a small part of the bigger picture. Every so often there needs to be something in addition to take it over the top. Like this purple-flowering wisteria, climbing grape, and trumpet bush. They turn a commercial chain link and decorative ornamental iron fences into an oasis. Taking the idea of a living wall to new heights. The grape, which is supported on 4ft-high iron, is almost as tall as the greenhouse. The wisteria climbing on the chain link, is home to doves. And the trumpet bush growing up along another iron fence, is a favorite of both hummingbirds and bees.

Looking Good

Posted on by tahoefence

Looking Good Can fences and gates be sexy? Don't know if we have the answer to that ourselves. And we're probably biased, anyway. But these gates are looking good! Our customer wanted to replace their existing, wood-framed gates. Because of their size and framing, the previous gates were problematic. Tahoe's crews built and installed these metal-framed gates at Incline Village (Washoe County). They have the strength of steel and are lighter than the previous all-wood constructed gates. Tahoe's gates keep the look of the overlapped redwood fence and have the added benefit of opening and closing smoothly with ball bearing hinges. And they look darn good!Looking Good
