Galvanized or Black-Coated
Galvanized
The most economical option. Fine for back lines and utility areas.
Black Vinyl-Coated
Looks far better, lasts longer, and fades into landscaping. The usual choice for homes.
Specs That Set Price and Life Span
Fabric Gauge
Thicker wire for security and commercial fences, lighter for residential.
Post Size
Corner, end and gate posts carry the load and should be heavier than line posts.
Top Rail
A top rail keeps the fabric tight and straight. Tension wire alone sags sooner.
Bottom Wire
A bottom tension wire keeps dogs from pushing under.
Where Chain Link Is Allowed
The City-Parish allows chain link everywhere except the Downtown character area. In front yards, chain link is open enough to meet the rule that fences over four feet be less than 30 percent solid, but HOA covenants may still restrict it.
Adding Screening
Privacy Slats
Slats woven into the fabric add screening without replacing the fence.
Windscreen
Mesh windscreen zip-tied to the fabric screens courts and lots. It catches wind, so the posts and top rail have to be up to it.
Rentals, Ballfields and Side Yards
Chain link earns its keep where a fence takes abuse. Landlords around LSU and Southern University use it for side yards and dog areas because a damaged section is quick to replace. Schools, churches and ballfields use taller fabric and backstops. Along ditches and low spots, chain link lets water pass instead of damming it.
