Chain-Link Fence Installation

Chain-link fencing has been a workhorse of the fencing industry for over a century, and it remains the most practical, economical, and versatile fencing solution available today. At Affordable Fence, we have installed miles of chain-link fencing across Spring Hill and Middle Tennessee for homeowners, businesses, farms, and municipalities. Whether you need to enclose a backyard, secure a commercial lot, or build a dog run, chain-link delivers reliable performance at a price point that no other material can match.

Galvanized for Long-Term Performance

All of our chain-link fencing is manufactured from galvanized steel wire that has been coated with zinc to prevent rust and corrosion. The galvanization process creates a durable barrier between the steel core and the elements, allowing the fence to withstand years of rain, humidity, and temperature swings without deteriorating. We use a minimum of 11-gauge wire for residential installations and 9-gauge wire for commercial and high-security applications, ensuring the mesh is strong enough to resist impacts, climbing, and attempts to cut through.

Posts are equally important to the integrity of the system. Our chain-link installations use galvanized steel line posts, terminal posts, and corner posts set in concrete at depths appropriate for your soil conditions and fence height. Top rails, tension bands, and all hardware are also galvanized for consistent corrosion resistance throughout the entire fence system.

Vinyl-Coated Chain-Link Options

For homeowners and businesses that want a softer look than traditional silver galvanized, we offer vinyl-coated chain-link in a range of colors. Black is the most popular choice, as it tends to visually recede into the landscape, making the fence less conspicuous. Green blends naturally with lawns and landscaping, while brown and white complement specific architectural styles and HOA requirements. The vinyl coating provides an additional layer of corrosion protection on top of the galvanized base, effectively doubling the fence's resistance to the elements.

Privacy Slats: The Best of Both Worlds

One of the most common misconceptions about chain-link is that it offers no privacy. In reality, privacy slats can transform a chain-link fence into a visual barrier that blocks up to 90 percent of visibility at a fraction of the cost of a solid wood or vinyl privacy fence. We offer several slat types:

• Winged Privacy Slats: Individual slats woven vertically through the chain-link mesh, available in a wide range of colors. Easy to install and replace individually if needed.
• Fence Weave Tape: A continuous strip of durable PVC tape woven diagonally through the mesh for maximum coverage and a clean, uniform appearance.
• Hedge Slats: Textured slats designed to mimic the appearance of natural hedging, adding an organic look to the fence while providing excellent privacy.

Pet Enclosures & Dog Runs

Chain-link fencing is the material of choice for dog runs, kennels, and backyard pet enclosures. The open mesh allows full visibility so you can keep an eye on your animals, while the steel construction resists chewing, scratching, and pushing. For dogs that jump or climb, we install chain-link in heights up to 8 feet and can add tension wire, coyote rollers, or angled extensions at the top to prevent escapes. Bottom tension wire or buried mesh prevents digging underneath. We have built countless custom dog runs and kennels for Spring Hill pet owners, and we can design an enclosure that keeps your animals safe and gives them plenty of room to play.

Commercial & Municipal Applications

Chain-link fencing is the backbone of commercial and municipal perimeter security. We install chain-link for parking lots, construction sites, storage yards, athletic fields, tennis courts, baseball backstops, and public parks. Commercial installations use heavier gauge wire, larger diameter posts, and barbed wire or razor wire top options where permitted. We also install temporary chain-link panels for construction site security and event perimeters.

Quick, Clean Installation

One of the practical advantages of chain-link fencing is the speed of installation. A typical residential chain-link fence can be installed in one to two days, meaning less disruption to your daily routine and faster access to a secure yard. Our crews are efficient and thorough, leaving your property clean and your fence properly tensioned and aligned when we are done.
