Chain Link Fence FAQs
Galvanized chain link lasts 15-20 years. Vinyl-coated chain link lasts 20+ years since the coating prevents rust. Commercial grade with heavier gauge wire lasts even longer. Chain link is one of the most durable fence options for the price.
Yes. Privacy slats, woven mesh screens, and hedge plantings all add screening to chain link. Slats insert into the mesh diamond pattern and come in multiple colors. They reduce visibility by about 70-90% depending on the style.
Yes. Chain link is one of the best options for containing dogs since it has no gaps between boards. Choose a height based on your dog's size and jumping ability. 6-foot chain link contains most breeds. Add a bottom tension wire to prevent digging under.
Chain link costs about half as much as wood for the same area. A 150-foot residential chain link fence costs $1,800-$3,300 installed vs. $3,000-$5,250 for wood. Chain link also requires zero maintenance, saving more over time.
Same rules as other fence types. Charlotte generally doesn't require permits for residential fences under 7 feet. Check with your HOA if applicable -- some neighborhoods restrict chain link in front yards or require specific styles.
