Let customers speak for us
The panels are perfect, and arrived earlier than anticipated, I am very pleased with the panels. Thank you
Good products and services at a fair prices
Exactly as advertised, fast and efficient pickup.
The whole process with Barrier Boss was great. Lauren was extremely helpful. The time line was quick from ordering to delivery.
I have dealt with Barrier Boss multiple times over the last two years and have ordered fence panels from them twice. The panels have worked out great, but more importantly, I have had nothing but great experiences and was made to feel like a valued customer no matter the size of my orders. Dave was especially helpful when I popped in to ask about picking up two corrugated metal sheets even though I didn't have a larger order at that time. I will absolutely be returning.
It was worth the wait! These panels are strong and well built, I couldn't believe the price when I got them. Much better option the chainlink.
Took a while for delivery. It was worth the wait. We are enjoying the sauna.
Product is excellent. Customer service was responsive and productive.
Working with Barrier Boss was great. From product deliverd to my door to the custom fence pannels I needed , Barrier Boss listened and responded to all our requests . Would recommend them to anyone that needs fencing and any other products they sell.
One post was twisted,a bit of a challenge to make it fit the last fence panel
Exceptional product and exceptional service which is consistent with every order and all the way through, from the moment the order is placed until the order is delivered and even after that! What really stands out in addition to BarrierBoss highest quality is energy and efforts put in delivering their product to their customers. Really all in one and one of a kind!
Great product! Easy installation due to precise fencing size specifications. Very pleased :)
