Applications
Where Chain Link Fencing Excels
Chain link isn't just for industrial sites. It's one of the most versatile fencing materials available, suitable for a wide range of residential and commercial applications.
Dog Runs & Pet Enclosures
Chain link is the go-to choice for keeping pets safe. It's strong enough to contain even large, energetic dogs while allowing visibility so you can keep an eye on them. We can add dig guards and coyote rollers for extra security.
Commercial & Industrial Sites
Warehouses, storage yards, and construction sites rely on chain link for affordable perimeter security. Add barbed wire or razor wire for enhanced protection. We also install sliding and rolling gates for vehicle access.
Sports Fields & Schools
From baseball backstops to soccer field perimeters, chain link is the standard for athletic facilities. It's durable, safe, and allows spectators to watch the action. We serve schools, parks, and recreation departments throughout DFW.
Chain Link Gauge Guide
The "gauge" refers to the thickness of the wire. Lower numbers = thicker wire = stronger fence.
Pro Tip: We recommend 9-gauge wire for most Dallas residential applications. It's significantly stronger than 11-gauge and will better withstand impact, pets, and the Texas wind.
Why Chain Link
Advantages of Chain Link Fencing
Unbeatable Value
Chain link consistently offers the lowest cost-per-foot of any permanent fencing material. For large properties, commercial sites, or budget-conscious homeowners, it's the smart choice. You get security and durability without breaking the bank.
Virtually Maintenance-Free
Unlike wood that needs staining or iron that needs rust prevention, galvanized chain link requires almost zero maintenance. An occasional rinse with a hose is all it takes to keep it looking good. Vinyl-coated options are even more resilient.
Quick Installation
Chain link fences can be installed faster than most other types. This means lower labor costs and less disruption to your property. Most residential projects are completed in 1-2 days, and commercial projects scale efficiently.
Highly Customizable
Don't let the "industrial" reputation fool you. Chain link can be customized with vinyl coatings, privacy slats, decorative post caps, and even integrated with wood or masonry elements. Heights range from 3 feet to 12+ feet to meet any need.
Need a Quick Turnaround?
Chain link is often in stock and ready to install. If you need a fence fast—for a new puppy, a construction site, or an upcoming inspection—chain link is your best bet.

Chain Link FAQ
Common Questions About Chain Link
Color-coated (usually black vinyl) chain link offers two main benefits: it looks better by blending into the landscape, and the vinyl coating adds an extra layer of protection against rust and corrosion, extending the fence's life.
Yes! We can install privacy slats that slide vertically into the chain link mesh. These come in various colors and can provide approximately 75-90% privacy depending on the slat style.
Commercial grade chain link uses a thicker wire gauge and larger diameter posts for increased strength and security. Residential grade is lighter and more cost-effective, suitable for backyards and pet containment.
