Fence installation in Parowan, Utah
Older town lots, farm edges and cabins on the way up to Brian Head.
Parowan is the county seat of Iron County, founded in 1851 and home to 2,996 people in 2020.

The town still has a farm-town layout, with big lots, outbuildings and fields at the edges.
What do Parowan homeowners usually need?
- Replacing old wire and wood fences on long-held family lots
- Rail and mesh fencing for horses, chickens and large gardens
- Privacy fences on newer homes
- Wide gates for hay, trailers and equipment
Higher, colder, longer winters
The extra elevation means harder freezes and snow that sticks around. Posts need to be set deep enough to resist frost heave, and fences that face plowed streets or drifting snow need strong bottom rails. On older properties, check where the line really is before replacing a fence that's stood for decades; it isn't always on the boundary.
Parowan has its own city ordinances, separate from Cedar City's, so confirm fence height and setback rules with the city office before building.
