Chain link fence, also known as Diamond Mesh Fence, is crafted from woven steel wire to form a durable and adaptable panel, making it highly versatile for numerous applications. Offered in various wire gauges and mesh sizes, each chain link fence roll features line wires and knuckled edges, with options for barbed edges to enhance security.
Galvanized Chain Link Fences
Galvanized chain link fences are constructed from steel wire coated with zinc to protect against rust and corrosion. This galvanization process ensures durability and longevity, making these fences suitable for diverse outdoor environments. The diamond-shaped mesh provides a strong yet flexible barrier that is cost-effective and easy to install, ideal for securing property boundaries, industrial sites, sports fields, and residential areas.
PVC Coated Chain Link Fences
PVC coated chain link fences are made from steel wire treated with a layer of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), offering protection against rust, corrosion, and UV damage. This coating enhances the fence’s appearance and allows it to blend seamlessly into various surroundings. Renowned for their durability and low maintenance, these fences are commonly used in residential, commercial, and public areas.
Specifications
Wire Gauges and Mesh Sizes
- Wire Gauges: Chain link fences are available in a range of wire gauges from 6 gauge (4.88 mm) to 12 gauge (2.77 mm), allowing for customization based on security requirements and budget. Thicker gauges offer enhanced durability and are better suited for high-security applications.
- Mesh Sizes: The size of the mesh openings can vary, typically ranging from 1 inch (about 25 mm) to 4 inches (about 102 mm). Smaller mesh sizes increase security by making it harder to climb and breach.
Fence Dimensions
- Standard Roll Lengths: Chain link fence rolls are commonly available in lengths of 50 feet (15.24 meters) and 100 feet (30.48 meters), catering to both small-scale residential and larger commercial projects.
- Height Options: The height of chain link fences can vary significantly, from 3 feet (0.91 meters) for basic boundary marking to 12 feet (3.66 meters) for industrial and high-security areas, ensuring coverage for a wide array of use cases.
Edge Types and Finishes
- Edge Types: Standard chain link fences come with knuckled edges to prevent snagging and injury. For increased security, barbed edges are also available, which deter intrusion by making the fence difficult and dangerous to climb.
- Finishes: To enhance durability against environmental factors, chain link fences are offered in several finishes:
- Galvanized: Provides robust protection against rust and corrosion.
- PVC Coated: Available in various colors, PVC coating not only increases the fence’s resistance to weathering but also blends better with the landscape or cityscape.
