Chain Link Fence

Built on Trust, Driven by Quality

At Boyd Fence & Welding, we install chain link fences for both residential and commercial clients who need security and durability. Our chain link fences are made from galvanized steel wire (or vinyl-coated wire) woven into the characteristic diamond pattern mesh. This open-weave design allows good visibility and airflow, and it does not obstruct sunlight, which can be beneficial for landscaping. Chain link is known for being low-maintenance – it won’t rot, warp, or need repainting, and the galvanized coating prevents rust for many years. We offer chain link at standard heights from 4 feet to 8 feet (even up to 10 feet tall for high-security needs).

For homes, a 4–6 foot chain link fence is often used to keep kids and pets safe in the yard. For businesses and public facilities, we can install taller fences with options like barbed wire toppers or privacy slats if needed. Our professional installers ensure the chain link fabric is stretched tight and the steel posts are set deep in concrete, so your fence stands strong against weather and impact. When you need a reliable enclosure chain link fencing provides excellent value and quick installation.

Common Uses

Backyard fences for pets and children

Homeowners often choose chain link to secure backyards, play areas, or dog runs. A 4- or 6-foot chain link fence keeps pets contained and children safe while allowing visibility across the yard.

Security perimeter for commercial properties

Businesses in Abilene use chain link fences (often 6–8 feet tall with optional barbed wire on top) to secure warehouses, industrial facilities, utility substations, and storage yards from trespassers.

Sports and recreation facilities

Chain link is commonly used around baseball fields, tennis courts, parks, and playgrounds. It provides a durable barrier that can withstand impact (like balls or players hitting it) and requires little upkeep for city and school maintenance crews.

Temporary fences for construction sites or events

Freestanding chain link panels are used as a temporary fence solution to enclose construction zones or outdoor event perimeters. We supply and install temporary chain link fencing that can be moved or removed as needed.

Pool enclosures (with code compliance)

For swimming pools, chain link can be used if it meets local safety codes (usually a minimum 4-foot height and a self-closing, self-latching gate). Many public pools or backyard pools in more rural areas use chain link so that the pool area is secure but still visible for supervision.
