In 1959, William E. Davis (sometimes "Buddy, " and also "Ed") started Southern Manufacturing Company, a fencing company, in a rented building in an alley between 6th and 7th Streets in Anniston with only two employees, but the business was set to grow, and sooner than I expected: at age 13, my first day out of school for the summer, I was ready to ride my bike and do lots of swimming.
Dad had a different idea. And so I started my fencing career. By age 16, I was a crew leader of two men much older than me working and installing fencing all over East Alabama. At age 18, I was made a salesman. By then, Southern Manufacturing Company sold more chain link fence than any other company in Alabama, and we had about 20 employees.

We've served Calhoun, Cleburne and Carroll counties since 1989, with more than 40 years of experience in the fencing business. We guarantee our work and build fences that are made to last. If you want security and privacy for your home or commercial site, look no further. Whether it's rustic wood or galvanized steel, chainlink or durable PVC, our fences will give you the peace of mind you need.
Our vinyl fence materials are made to survive hot days and freezing summers with minimal maintenance throughout the years. Davis Fence doesn't use prefabricated wooden fence panels. Our wood fences are stick-built (individual posts and pickets) arranged on-site and built to last. Custom-made metal frames ensure that our gates don't buckle or sag over time and always fit the frame.
