Pros and Cons of Chain Link Fences in Boise, ID

The chain link fence is a popular, classic option that has been around for a surprisingly long time: it was first developed in the 1840s! While chain link fencing may not be the first fencing material to come to mind when you're planning on installing a fence, there's a reason chain link fencing has remained popular for over 150 years. If you're on the fence about what kind of fence to install for your commercial or residential needs, here are a few pros and cons to consider: 

Pros
Chain link fencing is secure. Despite its relatively lightweight build, chain link fencing is extremely durable and secure, making it a good option for elementary schools, football fields, baseball fields, high-security campuses, and even as temporary fencing for state fairs, concerts, and other one-time events. It can also be used for dog runs and to contain other animals because of its durability. 

Affordability. Because of the relatively low amount of metal required for a chain link fence and the way the links support one another, chain link fencing is one of the most budget-friendly options on the market. Especially if you have a lot of yardage to cover, chain link fencing may be an option you consider because materials for fencing can add up quickly. 

Cons
Chain link fencing is not considered a high-end aesthetic. Because of its affordability and the fact that it's frequently used in high-security situations, chain link fencing does not invoke a high-end aesthetic. While many of our clients choose to prioritize cost and durability, some clients steer clear of chain link fencing based on its appearance.  

Not a good privacy fence. Because of the nature of chain links, this is not a material that is inherently a privacy fence. Although there are options that include vinyl slats woven through the chain links, please bear in mind that there may be a pricing difference between chain link fences that can offer privacy and chain link fencing that cannot.
