Weather windows across Oklahoma
Weather decides when exterior installation can happen, and Oklahoma is not uniform. The table uses NOAA's 1991-2020 climate normals from the weather station nearest each metro we cover, and counts the months that are neither cold nor hot enough to complicate the job.
Every Oklahoma metro on the list has 10 comfortable months, though rainfall ranges from 36 inches a year in Oklahoma City to 41 in Tulsa.
We do not adjust prices by month, because we have no reliable published data on seasonal pricing. Timing is still worth raising when you collect bids.
| Metro | Jan avg low °F | Jul avg high °F | Precip (in/yr) | Comfortable months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oklahoma City | 27 | 93 | 36 | 10: September through June |
| Tulsa | 28 | 94 | 41 | 10: September through June |
Why two Oklahoma quotes can differ
Style
Aluminum picket runs $25-$50 per linear foot installed, ornamental fence $40-$75, and privacy designs $75-$130 (HomeGuide).
Soil and slope
Steep slopes and rocky clay can add $15-$20+ per linear foot in labor.
Pool codes
Many codes require a pool barrier with gaps under 4 inches, which influences the style you can buy.
Permit
A fence permit runs $40-$150.
Add-ons priced for Oklahoma
Add-ons start from national price ranges and are scaled by 0.90 for Oklahoma, which is the average of the area's wage index (0.86) and goods price index (0.94). The estimator above can add them to your total.

How Oklahoma compares with nearby states
Oklahoma ranks 47 of 51 (the 50 states plus DC) for aluminum fence, where 1 is the most expensive. The costliest is Hawaii at $9,550 and the cheapest Arkansas at $6,700, both for 150 linear ft at the midpoint. Oklahoma sits at $6,900. The five states closest by workforce center are listed below.
| State | Distance | Range | Midpoint | vs. here |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kansas | 160 miles away | $3,600 – $10,800 | $7,200 | +4% |
| Arkansas | 220 miles away | $3,300 – $10,100 | $6,700 | −3% |
| Missouri | 320 miles away | $3,850 – $11,400 | $7,650 | +11% |

| Nebraska | 380 miles away | $3,550 – $10,700 | $7,150 | +4% |
Oklahoma metro-by-metro prices
1 of the 2 metros sit above the statewide midpoint of $6,900, and the top-to-bottom gap is 1%. Each row prices the default size with that metro's own BLS wages and BEA price levels, so the gap between rows is real local variation rather than a flat markup.
| Metro | Range (150 linear ft) | Midpoint | vs. state |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oklahoma City, OK | $3,450 – $10,500 | $6,950 | +1% |
| Tulsa, OK | $3,450 – $10,400 | $6,900 | level |
If you are planning more than one job in Oklahoma
Each project weights the trades differently, so Oklahoma's wage level does not push every price by the same amount. Compared with the US midpoint, vinyl fence is −9% and chain-link fence −14%.
| Project | Size | Range | vs. US |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vinyl fence | 150 linear ft | $4,150 – $8,250 | −9% |
| Wood fence | 150 linear ft | $2,650 – $6,750 | −12% |
| Chain-link fence | 150 linear ft | $1,350 – $5,250 | −14% |
| Inground pool | 450 sq ft | $31,800 – $99,400 | −12% |
Basic, standard or premium: Oklahoma prices
Bands overlap on purpose, since a good standard job can cost as much as a light premium one. Below are the three bands for the default size, then a grid from pool fence (100 linear ft) to 200 ft (200 linear ft).
Basic
$3,450 to $6,200
Standard picket or ornamental, 4 ft
Standard

Wages behind the Oklahoma number
Oklahoma's labor line is priced from 3 trades, each compared with its US median wage. After weighting by each trade's share of the work, the state comes out at 0.86 times the national level.
Carpenters (47-2031), 40% of the weighting: a median of $22.55 an hour, 23% below the US median of $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $19.37 and $25.72 an hour. About 3,820 work in the state. That is 22.4 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.
For construction laborers (47-2061, weighted 40%) the local median is $18.92 an hour, which is 17% below the national $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $17.54 and $22.82 an hour. BLS counts 13,710 of them working in the state, 80.3 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 70.5), so the local bench is about average.
Sheet metal workers (47-2211), 20% of the weighting: a median of $31.56 an hour, 6% above the US median of $29.71. The middle half of them earn between $26.44 and $33.96 an hour. About 2,820 work in the state. That is 16.5 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 7.7 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.
A crew paid at the 75th percentile for carpenters ($25.72 an hour) would add about $110 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($19.37) would take off about $110. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
BLS counts 1,707,680 jobs across Oklahoma (May 2025), which is 1.1% of US employment.
| Trade | Weight | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | US median | Ratio | Level used |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carpenters (47-2031) | 40% | $19.37 | $22.55 | $25.72 | $29.12 | 0.77 | state |
| Construction laborers (47-2061) | 40% | $17.54 | $18.92 | $22.82 | $22.66 | 0.83 | state |
