Benefits of a Chain Link Fence

When it comes to choosing fencing for your home or business, a chain link fence is a popular choice for both residential and commercial use. Chain link fences have a variety of advantages when compared to other types of fencing. In general, adding a fence of any type will increase your property value and make it more attractive while maintaining boundaries. 

If you’re not sure what a chain link fence looks like, it’s made up of steel posts with crisscrossing steel coated wires that are interlinked. The wire portion is stretched between the posts and attached to a cross bar. 

If you’re considering chain link fencing but not sure if it’s the right choice, consider the following benefits. 

  • Security. A chain link fence increases the security of your property. Whether the fence is around your backyard or a portion of your commercial lot, you’ll keep the right things in and the wrong things out. Chain link fencing can be built high enough to deter climbing and a lockable gate.
  • Safety. Chain link fencing is ideal for keeping children and pets contained and away from the street and other potential dangers. Various heights are available for dogs and pets that can jump lower fences. Playground fencing for daycares, schools, and parks is often chain link because it combines visibility with containment.
  • Affordable. Of all fence types available, chain link is one of the most affordable. Because it is not highly ornamental or stylish, it costs less than wood, vinyl, or aluminum fencing. It is also ideal for fencing in larger areas at a lower cost, such as commercial properties.
  • Durable. Chain link fencing is virtually indestructible. Once installed, when done properly, it can remain in place through severe weather and other forms of wear and tear. Wind, rain, and snow blow right through it. Ice won’t damage it. And most pets can’t break through it.
  • Customizable. Chain link fencing can be configured around any size or shape or property. It comes in varying heights based on your needs. It can even be installed on uneven ground or sloped land. Chain link fences can be painted any color.
  • Low maintenance. You won’t need to stain or seal coat a chain link fence, although you can paint it if you wish. It requires very little maintenance other than removing leaves or cobwebs occasionally. In the rare case that your chain link fence sustains damage, repairs are also relatively easy.
