Chain-Link Fences

Why Chain-Link Fences Work So Well

Chain-link fences are the most budget-friendly option for securing your property. They are strong, long-lasting, and require almost no maintenance. If you need to fence a large area without spending a fortune, chain-link is your best bet. It is also see-through, which makes it perfect for keeping pets and kids safe while still letting you see your yard.

In Madera, chain-link fences are popular for backyards, dog runs, sports courts, and commercial properties. They handle our hot summers and occasional storms without rusting or breaking down. Plus, installation is fast and simple, so you can have your fence up and ready in just a day or two.

Top Benefits of Chain-Link Fencing

Chain-link fences have a lot going for them, especially if you are working with a budget. Here is what makes them a smart choice:

• ✓Affordable: Chain-link costs less than wood, vinyl, or aluminum, making it ideal for large areas.
• ✓Durable: Galvanized steel resists rust and stands up to weather for 20 years or more.
• ✓Low maintenance: Chain-link never needs painting or staining. Just rinse it off occasionally.
• ✓Quick installation: Most chain-link fences go up in 1 to 2 days, depending on size.
• ✓See-through design: Great for keeping an eye on kids and pets while maintaining boundaries.

Chain-Link Options to Match Your Needs

Chain-link fences are not all the same. You have options to customize your fence based on how you plan to use it:

Galvanized vs. Vinyl-Coated

Galvanized chain-link is the standard silver finish. It is rust-resistant and very affordable. Vinyl-coated chain-link adds a layer of colored vinyl, usually black or green, for a cleaner look. Vinyl-coated fences cost a bit more but blend in better with landscaping.

Height and Gauge

Chain-link fences come in heights from 3 feet to 12 feet. For backyards, 4 to 6 feet is most common. Gauge refers to the thickness of the wire. Lower gauge means thicker, stronger wire. If you need extra security or have large dogs, we recommend 9-gauge or lower.

Privacy Slats

Want more privacy? You can add slats that weave through the chain-link to block the view. Slats come in many colors and give you the security of chain-link with the privacy of a solid fence. It is a great compromise if you want both.
