ON THE FENCE
Monthly newsletter - may ‘26
Kentucky derby festival
Since 2001, Professional Fence has proudly partnered with the Kentucky Derby Festival to provide temporary fencing solutions for some of the community’s most iconic events. Our purpose is to Build Communities, and our longstanding relationship with KDF reflects that commitment by helping create safe, organized spaces where our city can come together and celebrate.
For the 26th consecutive year, our team successfully navigated demanding setup and breakdown schedules to support the execution of these events. We strive to build such a strong level of trust with our KDF partners that fencing becomes one less thing they have to worry about.
This year, we provided temporary fencing for Thunder Over Louisville, the Chow Wagon, Kroger’s Fest-a-Ville, the Ken-Ducky Derby, and the Marathon and miniMarathon.

What We’re Building…
UniFirst Ornamental
Security is a critical component of distribution and warehouse facilities, and this UniFirst location demonstrates how protection and presentation can work hand in hand. Featuring ornamental fencing and multiple automated gates, the project delivers a clean, professional appearance while providing the security and operational convenience the facility requires.
Emmerson Park Improvements
Our team recently replaced the fencing surrounding the community garden at Emmerson Park, helping create a refreshed and secure space for the community to enjoy.
“Fence looks great! Your team did great work. It was good working with Professional Fence.”

DID YOU KNOW…
Even the KenDucky Derby depends on structure behind the scenes. While thousands of rubber ducks race down the Ohio River, temporary fencing and controlled access areas help organize spectators along the shoreline, keeping viewing areas safe and pathways clear.
Hosted as part of the Kentucky Derby Festival festivities, the KenDucky Derby also helps support the incredible mission of Harbor House of Louisville—proving that a little fun can also make a meaningful impact in our community.
It’s a good reminder that whether it’s horses, runners, or rubber ducks, every great Louisville tradition runs smoother with a little organization—and a lot of fencing in the right places.
Fencing has safeguarded communities for centuries—let us provide the same security and dependability for your next project.
