More often than fence materials can prove to be on the expensive side, both in terms of the material cost as well as the cost of installation. Thankfully, chain link fencing offers most of the benefits of comparable fence types, while being easy on the budget. In fact, it is one of the least expensive fences, as far as installation is concerned.
Right from the height of the fence to the metal gauge, from colour coatings to mesh sizes, almost all aspects of chain link fences can be customized to suit the budget, needs and preferences of the property owner. This is one aspect that truly sets chain link fences apart from all other fence types.
The chain link mesh is available in 3 types of end terminations depending on the security requirements.
1. Knuckled – Knuckled
2. Twisted – Twisted
3. Knuckled – Twisted
By twisting the terminations, we have a pointed end that is very difficult to open. By knuckling the termination, we have a smooth rounded end, which is comparatively easier to open. Hence, Twisted – Twisted & Knuckled – Twisted have higher security benefits and are made using high end automated machines.
In order to ensure that chain link fences don’t need any maintenance post installation, all one needs to take care of is proper installation. That being done, the inherent galvanisation and PVC coating of the fence ensures that there is little to no accumulation of dirt, and eliminates any possibility of rusting..
Chain link fences are woven structures which offer security, while also ensuring unobstructed view from the outside as well as the inside of the premises giving way to better surveillance, and reduced chances of trespassing.
As Chain Link fence is a traditional form of fencing existing since a very long time, it is easy to find an installer or contractor who knows how to install chain link and can do the installation at low costs.
As you may have known by now, chain link fence is a woven structure, created by the equidistant interlocking of coated steel wire. Since the wires are galvanised, they are inherently strong and corrosion resistant. You can extend the life of the chain link further by opting for PVC coating. However, what makes this structure truly resistant to any weather-related or physical damage is the fact that it allows wind to pass through its openings, making it flexible. This immaculate blend of strength and flexibility makes chain link fences exceptionally durable.
Not many fence types can be installed across uneven terrain. Thankfully, the flexibility and the sheer structure of the chain link fence make it rather easy for the fence to be stretched across rugged mountainous terrain, making it much more versatile than its comparable counterparts.
To begin with, the fence is made using galvanised steel which in itself is strong enough to create the much-needed barrier for any and all property types. Moreover, owing to the customisable property of chain link fence it can be built to substantial heights to make it almost impossible for trespassers to access the property. Add to it the fact that chain link fences can be topped up with barbed wires, and one can rest assured of insurmountable security, quite literally. While they can be easily cut, since they are see-through, the intrusion attempt can be easily detected by surveillance cameras or patrol guards.
Did you know? Chain link fabric can be easily packed into compact rolls, which makes it rather easy to transport. Not only does it take much less space, but also ensures easy handling.

More often than not, chain link fence posts are rather sturdy. This implies that the posts can be anywhere between 4 to 10 feet apart from each other. That said, it is always advisable to follow the fence provider’s instructions as far as spacing and installation is concerned.
While chain link fence posts can be installed without the use of concrete, it is not advisable to do so. In order to ensure that the fence is well stretched and stays in place for years at end, it is crucial that the fence posts are set in concrete footings, especially at ends and corners.
Chain link fences are available in numerous coating options, based on the site conditions as well as the environmental factors around the property. However, when it comes to ensuring little to no damage from rusting or corrosion, the most preferred coating alternatives include –
In addition to ensuring that the fence is completely protected against corrosion, these coatings also offer an enhanced aesthetic appeal to the fence. As far as the ECOZAL wires are considered, these facilitate 3x life as compared to the traditional zinc coated wires (as determined via (salt spray test), thereby enhancing the value for money by a large extent. So, make sure you make a well-informed decision that not only helps you make the most of your money, but also sits well with your aesthetic preferences as well as your budget!
