How we install chain link

  • Utility locates requested before any digging
  • Heavier terminal posts at every end, corner and gate, set in concrete
  • Line posts between them
  • A continuous top rail so the fence stays straight
  • Mesh stretched tight and fastened with tension bars, so it doesn’t sag

A chain link fence that sags or leans almost always has one of two problems: terminal posts that weren't set deep enough, or mesh that wasn't stretched properly. We don't cut either corner.

Where chain link makes sense

  • Keeping dogs and kids in the yard without blocking the view
  • Large or rural lots where wood would cost much more
  • Back and side property lines that don’t need privacy
  • Commercial and utility areas (see commercial fencing)

If you want privacy, a wood privacy fence is the better fit.

Chain link questions

Galvanized or black: which should I pick?

Galvanized is the budget choice and lasts well. Black vinyl-coated costs a little more but fades into the background of a yard, which is why most homeowners pick it for backyards. For farm, commercial or out-of-sight runs, galvanized makes sense.

Is 4 ft tall enough for a dog?

For most dogs, yes. 4 ft is our most popular chain link height. Big dogs that jump or climb are better with 6 ft.

Can I add privacy to chain link?

Chain link is see-through by design. If privacy is the goal, a wood privacy fence is the better choice, and costs less than trying to screen a chain link fence later.

How are the gates priced?

Walk gates are $350 galvanized or $400 black. Double drive gates are $700 galvanized or $800 black. Gate prices include the heavier posts on each side, hinges and latch.
