Chain link fence has been given the moniker, hurricane fence, for a very good reason. It is an extremely durable fencing material that is well worth the investment. It is a type of fence that will last for years with very little effort. It is versatile and economical, just a few of the reasons you see it used so readily.
Chain link fence has been around for more than a hundred years. It has long been a favorite to secure yards, properties, businesses, playgrounds, pools, and playing fields. There are many aspects that make this an ideal type of fencing for several different applications. One of the first aspects that make it a favorite is the economical price of the fencing. It is often the least expensive fencing material per square foot or yard.
Another reason that this fencing is popular is its durability. It has been called hurricane fencing because it can withstand very strong winds without damage. In the event of a flood, which is common with hurricanes, a chain link fence lets water pass through it leaving the fence undamaged. The majority of chain link is galvanized protecting it from rust and oxidation. It is quite difficult to damage the actual fence. When chain link fencing is down it is usually because the posts have been damaged and not the chain-link itself.
Chain link fence is super versatile, especially if you have an odd length or shape of space to enclose. This is flexible fencing that is easily curved or arched if you have a border that is not a straight line. It comes in several different heights making it suitable for security fencing. It is commonly used to contain playing fields because it does not obstruct the line of view while maintaining its ability to secure an area.
Chain link is inexpensive as a material versus other types of fencing. However, because it is virtually carefree, there is no additional cost to maintain the fence once it is installed. If you do not like the look of the bare galvanized steel, powder coat the fence in black, green, or any other color.
