Chain-link fence installation in Monroe and West Monroe.

Durable, budget-conscious fencing for homes, pets, businesses, and larger properties. Chain-link covers more ground per dollar than any other fence we build, which is why it tends to win on acreage, on commercial yards, and anywhere the job is containment rather than privacy.

The same system goes up tall — we have built chain-link at tennis courts, where the fence is doing a different job again: keeping a ball in rather than keeping anything out. Taller runs need heavier posts and closer spacing, so it is worth saying up front what the enclosure is for.

Chain-link is priced by height and by the gauge of the wire, and the right answer depends on what the fence is doing. A dog run and a commercial yard are different fences even though both are chain-link, so it is worth saying which you need before comparing quotes.

Chain-link covers more ground per dollar than any other fence we build, which is why it keeps winning on long runs, acreage and commercial yards where the job is containment rather than privacy. It also takes weather without needing to be sealed or painted, and a damaged section can be replaced without touching the rest of the run. What it does not do is screen anything, which is the trade you are making. Slats can be woven through the mesh where some privacy is wanted without the cost of a wood run, though they are a compromise rather than a substitute. If the fence exists to keep something in or out over distance, this is usually the right answer.

Chain link is usually the lowest cost per foot of the fences we build. That's why it wins on a long yard, a dog run, and a shop perimeter in Monroe or West Monroe. The number still moves. Taller fence needs heavier posts and closer spacing, so a court enclosure is not priced like a four-foot dog fence. The gauge of the wire changes it too. A light residential mesh and a commercial framework are different fences even though both are chain link. Corners, end posts, and gates cost more than the same length of line, and a drive gate is the piece people leave out when they pace the yard. Privacy slats add work, and they are a compromise, not a wood privacy fence. Slope, trees, and an old fence that has to come out all add to the job. We don't print a rate card. Call (318) 351-2539 with the length and what the fence is keeping in or out.
