Woven Steel in a Diamond Pattern

A chain link fence is made of galvanized steel wire bent into a zigzag that forms a diamond mesh. You may hear it called a cyclone fence, hurricane fence, diamond-mesh fence, wire-mesh fence, or chain-wire fence. They all describe the same product.

How Prairieville Chain Link Installation Works

A chain link fence goes up in clear stages, and the job moves quickly. Here is the order.

6Install StagesFrom layout to gates
How Prairieville Chain Link Installation Works

Establish Fence Lines

The route of the fence is laid out first.

Set the Posts

Posts go in with concrete so the fence has a firm foundation.

Add Fittings and Rails

Post fittings go on, followed by the top and bottom rail.

Run the Tension Wire

Tension wire helps hold the bottom of the mesh in line.

Stretch and Tie Off

The chain link fabric is stretched tight and tied off to the posts and rails.

Hang the Gates

Gates go in last, so the openings fit the finished fence.

Open Weave

Why the Open Mesh Design Works

The see-through weave is a big part of chain link's appeal, and it can be upgraded when a property needs more.

01

Sunshine for Gardens

Light passes right through, so plants near the fence line keep getting the sun they need.

02

Natural Breeze

Air moves through the mesh, which helps cool the yard.

03

An Open View

You keep the view from your property, so the yard never feels boxed in.

04

Heavier Gauge for Security

For added security, a heavier gauge wire with a larger diameter makes the fence much stronger.

05

Color and Height Choices

Pick the color and height to suit your landscape and the purpose of the fence.
