Chain Link

Listing ID #597039

We offer chain link. A chain-link fence is a type of woven fence usually made from galvanized or steel wire. The wires run vertically and are bent into a zig-zag pattern so that each "zig" hooks with the wire immediately on one side and each "zag" with the wire immediately on the other. This forms the characteristic diamond pattern seen in this type of fence.
common heights include 3 ft, 3 ft 6 in, 4 ft, 5 ft, 6 ft, 7 ft, 8 ft, 10 ft, and 12 ft, though almost any height is possible. Common mesh gauges are 9, 11, and 11.5. Mesh length can also vary based on need, with the standard mesh length being 2". For tennis courts and ball parks the most popular height is 10 ft, and tennis courts use a mesh length of 1.75".
the popularity of chain-link fence is due to its relatively low cost and ease of installation. A further advantage is that due to the open weave, chain-link fences are transparent, and do not obscure sunlight from either side of the fence. If a semi-opaque fence is desired, this can be achieved by the insertion of slats into the mesh.
the installation of chain-link fence involves setting posts into the ground and attaching the fence to them. The posts may be steel tubing, timber or concrete and may be driven into the ground or set in concrete. End, corner or gate posts, commonly referred to as 'terminal posts', must be set in concrete footing or otherwise anchored to prevent leaning under the tension of a stretched fence.the fence is attached at one end, stretched, and attached at the other, the excess being easily removed by "unscrewing" a wire. Finally it is tied to the line posts with aluminum wire. Top horizontal rails are common on most chain-link fences, although not necessary. Bottom rails may be added in lieu of bottom tension wires, and for taller fences, such as 10 foot or greater in height, intermediate horizontal rails are often added.
