Fence rules in Pleasant Hills

Pleasant Hills is in Allegheny County.

Permit

Pleasant Hills' website says a permit is required for fences and that new fence regulations permit various types and heights in selected locations. Call the Zoning Department at 412-655-5035 for the details.

Height limits

We could not read the height limits online. Call Pleasant Hills Borough before you design the fence.

Pool barrier

Pennsylvania pool barrier rules call for a barrier at least 48 inches high, measured on the side facing away from the pool, with a self-closing, self-latching gate that swings away from the pool. If the latch release is on the pool side it must be at least 54 inches off the ground. Municipalities can adopt their own changes, so confirm with yours. Read our pool fence guide.
