About

Powers Fence Supply was created with the goal of providing customers all over the United States and Canada with quality fencing solutions and personal customer service at a reasonable price. Headquartered just outside the nation’s capital, Powers Fence Supply, is an official subsidiary of Frederick Fence, one of the best-reviewed and most successful fence companies in the greater Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia areas.
