Styles and options
Chain link options we install
Chain link is the value workhorse: it contains, it lasts for decades, and black vinyl-coated versions look far better than the chain link you remember.
Galvanized
The standard for yards, pets, and property lines — 4, 5, and 6 foot.
Black vinyl-coated
Coated mesh that disappears against trees and turf. The upgrade most homeowners pick.
Courts and recreation
Tall mesh for basketball courts and play areas, with bottom tension wire.
6-foot security
Commercial-height runs with barbed-wire-ready top rail where zoning allows.
No top rail
Clean-topped runs where the top rail is not wanted.
Gates
Walk gates and double drive gates, matched to the mesh.
Our process
How a chain link job goes
Chain link lives or dies on line posts and tension. We set terminal posts in concrete, pull the mesh tight with a stretcher bar — never by hand — and tie it off at the right spacing so the fabric stays taut for years.
Privacy slats go in after the mesh is up, in colors to match the coating.
Cost
What a chain link costs
Chain link is the lowest-cost per foot of anything we install, which is why it owns big backyards and job sites.

|---|---|
| Black vinyl-coated (per linear foot, installed) | $24–$38 |
| Walk gate | $500–$1,200 |

FAQ
chain link questions
How much does chain link fence cost?
Typical planning ranges: $18–$30 per linear foot installed for galvanized, $24–$38 for black vinyl-coated. Height and gates move the number. Your estimate confirms it.
Black or galvanized chain link?
Galvanized is the budget standard. Black vinyl-coated costs more and looks dramatically better against grass and trees — for most homes, it is worth it.
Can you add privacy to chain link?
Yes. Privacy slats weave into the mesh in several colors. They add wind load, so we check the line posts first.
What heights does chain link come in?
Four, five, and six foot are standard for homes; commercial security runs go taller. Courts and dog runs often use specific heights — tell us the use.
How long does chain link last?
Decades. The mesh outlives the hardware, so we install quality ties, tension bars, and hinges. Replacing a gate later is a small job.
Do you need a permit for chain link?
Same rules as any fence — jurisdiction decides, not material. Fairfax County generally needs no residential permit; Montgomery County requires one. We check for your address.
Do you install chain link for dogs?
Yes — it is the most common reason people call us for it. We match height to the breed and add bottom tension so diggers meet a firm boundary.
