Diamond Mesh Fence Introduction: 

Diamond Mesh Fence are commonly used as barriers for pools, railways or expressways. The chain link fence fabric – also known as wire or mesh – are made by weaving galvanized wires into spirals of diamond patterns in different sizes, gauges, and selvages.

The gauge refers to the diameter of individual galvanized wires of the fabric, and the higher the gauge number the thinner the wire is. Therefore, residential and commercial applications typically require a higher gauge fence than high-security applications. Our chain link fences are available in 1 mm – 4 mm.

The selvage refers to the top and bottom of the chain link fence, with the main types being Common (barbed and sharp, exposed edges that are used in high-security contexts), and the Wrap Edge (round and safer, used in residential and commercial areas).

While they can come in many heights, 6-foot chain link fences are used as common boundary solutions. Chain link fence rolls and parts can be bought separately and assembled, but our system comes with the complete package.

PVC chain link fence is a type of woven fence that is coated with green or black PVC wire. It is also known as vinyl coated or plastic coated chain link mesh.

Are chain link fences the cheapest option compared to other fences?

Chain link fences are one of the most affordable options out there compared to other types of fencing. They are versatile and great for both residential and commercial applications.

How long does a chain link fence last?

A chain link fence usually lasts around 15 to 20 years, depending on the level of maintenance. These are some tips on caring for a chain link fence:

Regular up-keeping

Spray down the fence with a high-powered hose or clean difficult spots with soapy water and a cloth or scrub brush.

Avoid growing plants on the fence

Avoid growing any types of plants (vines, flowers etc.) as they can grow through the fence and possibly break them.

Avoid climbing the fence

Climbing on chain link fences comes with the risk of bending support posts and could subsequently weaken the whole structure.

Repair when needed

One of the common areas that will require repairs is the connections to the posts of a chain link fence. They are likely to wear out and get loose over time, especially when the fence is being pulled on or when too much weight is exerted on it.

What is the difference between a vinyl-coated and a galvanised chain link fence?

Durability

Vinyl-coated chain link fences can often last longer as compared to their galvanised counterparts due to the protective layer surrounding the metal. This covering protects the fence against corrosion due to weather conditions. As galvanised fences do not have this protective layer, they tend to corrode faster.

Aesthetics

Vinyl-coated chain link fences are more aesthetically pleasing than galvanised fences as they can come in a wide range of colours including black, green and white. Thus, they may be preferred for locations like schools.
