Glidden Fence Company was established in 1976 and is still managed by the same owner, Tom Glidden. Tom started working in the fence industry in 1965 as a fence installer for a company that built only commercial fences, Hoosier Fence Company's Highway Division.
He quickly became the best fence installer for that company and in 1972 he went on to work in the Ironworker's Union for the nationwide biggest fence company, Cyclone Fence, a subsidiary of U.S. Steel Corporation.He continued honing his installation and leadership skills while leading a crew for Cyclone Fence.
In 1974, he began working as a subcontractor for Hoosier Fence's Industrial Division. During his time installing commercial fences, he learned a lot of special techniques on the best way to build a fence. In 1976, he moved his family to Carmel, Indiana and opened Glidden Fence Company. Tom scheduled fence estimates a few days a week and also took classes at IUPUI to learn about some of the nuances of running a business.
