Quality in Every Link

We take pride in completing three major housing projects at Fort Drum, totaling over 500 homes, as well as installing two miles of fence for a tank maintenance facility in New York State. All projects were completed in compliance with the military's stringent deadlines, inspections, and safety standards, for which we are proud and grateful. We’ve installed fences as far as Rochester, Ithaca, Fabius Pompey, Watertown, For Drum, Fayetteville, Manlius, All over the CNY area.

We consider it a privilege to put our name on your fence.

After installing a fence, we love to see our customers' dogs able to run off the leash for the first time, or to know their family is safe and enjoying privacy.

Our Family Legacy

In 1975, Edward Leader laid the foundation for Leader Fence in Central New York, working tirelessly alongside his sons, Thomas and Scott. By 1999, his wife Teresa assumed primary ownership, while their children Thomas and Coleen took charge of daily operations. In 2001, Nathaniel, Thomas's son, opted to become a full-time foreman, abandoning his studies at Syracuse University to uphold the family legacy. Despite excelling academically, Nathaniel chose to honor his roots and continue the family tradition. In 2024, Nathaniel assumed sole ownership of the company. Coleen revealed to him that this transition fulfilled a long-cherished dream of Edward's, a realization that caught Nathaniel by surprise. Unbeknownst to him, he was not only taking the reins of the business but also carrying forward the cherished legacy of his grandfather, a realization that filled him with a profound sense of pride and responsibility.
