The context in the city of Geneva
Geneva, the central city of the canton, spreads out on both sides of the harbour and the Rhône, from the Old Town to the dense Pâquis, Eaux-Vives, Plainpalais, Champel and Servette districts. Residential buildings, often old, managed by property management agencies and subject to heritage rules, dominate the built fabric. Traffic, parking for machinery and use of public land shape every worksite.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions in the city of Geneva
How long does installing a fence in the city of Geneva take?
Three to five days for fifty metres of fence with a gate. The quote describes each item, the planned duration and what is not included.
Is a permit needed for a fence in the city of Geneva?
A light fence up to two metres does not require one in most cases, a solid wall or a higher fence does. The distances to the boundaries and the road are checked with the municipality. The details of the procedures are on the website of the State of Geneva, on the applying for a building permit page.
Is the neighbour’s agreement needed in the city of Geneva?
A fence installed on your own land does not need their agreement, a fence on the boundary or a shared one does. We locate the boundary markers before the work.
Can an existing gate be motorised in the city of Geneva?
Yes, if the gate and its pillars are in good condition, with a power supply and a safety sensor.
