Chain-Link Fences

The Most Practical Fencing Solution

When you need affordable security that lasts for decades, chain-link fencing delivers. It's the most cost-effective way to enclose your property, keep pets safe, and establish clear boundaries. At FLP Claremont Fencing, we install chain-link fences for homeowners who want maximum value without sacrificing quality or durability.

Chain-link might not be the fanciest option, but it's incredibly practical. You get strong, long-lasting fencing at a fraction of the cost of wood or vinyl. Plus, chain-link requires almost no maintenance and stands up to everything California weather throws at it. Your property gets reliable protection that works year after year without breaking your budget.

Why Chain-Link Makes Sense

Chain-link fencing works great in situations where you need security and containment but don't need complete privacy. It's perfect for backyards where you want to keep kids and pets safe while maintaining visibility. Many Claremont homeowners choose chain-link for side yards, dog runs, and property perimeters.

Chain-Link Options and Upgrades

Not all chain-link fences look the same. We offer several options that let you customize your fence for better appearance, increased security, or enhanced privacy.

Coating and Color Options

Standard galvanized chain-link has a silver metallic finish and offers excellent rust resistance. For a more attractive appearance, we also install vinyl-coated chain-link in black, green, or brown. The colored coating makes the fence less visible against landscaping while providing extra corrosion protection. Black chain-link looks particularly sharp and modern.

Privacy Slats and Screens

If you want privacy without the cost of a solid fence, add privacy slats to your chain-link. These vertical inserts weave through the mesh and block 80-90% of visibility. You can choose from many colors to match your home or landscaping. Another option is privacy screening mesh that attaches to the fence and provides wind protection along with privacy.

Height and Gauge

Residential chain-link typically comes in 4-foot, 5-foot, or 6-foot heights. Taller fences provide more security and better pet containment. Wire gauge affects strength and durability: 11-gauge wire is standard for residential use, while 9-gauge offers commercial-grade strength. We help you choose the right specifications for your needs. For commercial applications, we can install even taller and stronger chain-link systems with aluminum fence accents for a premium look.

Professional Installation You Can Count On

A properly installed chain-link fence stays tight and straight for decades. Poor installation leads to sagging fabric, leaning posts, and gates that don't close properly. We've repaired countless DIY and low-quality chain-link installations over the years.

Our installation process ensures your chain-link fence performs perfectly from day one. We set terminal posts in concrete for stability, install line posts at proper spacing, stretch the fabric to correct tension without over-tightening, and use quality hardware that lasts. The result is a fence that looks professional, functions flawlessly, and stands strong through wind, weather, and daily use.
