Galvanized chain link fences feature a coating to improve durability. Vinyl-coated chain link includes a plastic material on top of the wire. Galvanization increases longevity. Vinyl improves the looks of plain wire and also increases its resistance to rust.
What Is Galvanization?
Galvanization is the process of coating metal to make it more durable. The coating is usually zinc. One technique for galvanization is to dip the metal in molten zinc.
With a coating over the base metal, the underlying steel lasts longer. The zinc-based coating protects the steel from corrosion, rust and scratches. Ungalvanized steel is vulnerable to weather and rusting.
What are Galvanized Chain Link Fences?
Chain link mesh is galvanized to make it durable. A galvanized chain link fence may last 20 years or longer. Chain link may be woven or welded. Woven mesh is stronger than welded varieties. The mesh can be galvanized before or after it&#;s made.
Pacific Fence & Wire weaves chain link fencing material in our Portland, Oregon facility. We construct high-quality mesh with our Bergandi machines. Our technicians can weave mesh in a range of gauges and heights. Our mesh ranges from 26 inches to 14 feet tall.
Manufacturers can apply a coating either before or after weaving the mesh. To ensure the most durable results, we weave from galvanized wire. Galvanizing chain link after manufacturing produces an inferior product. The wire will not be uniform and the coating less enduring.
In addition to conventional coating, we can cover the wire with aluminum. Aluminum is immune to corrosion and is a good choice for some environments.

When deciding what type of fence to install, it is important to make sure that the material you choose will last. Chain link fences tend to be some of the most durable options in today&#;s diverse fence marketplace. Chain link fences last for roughly 20 years, which is about 5 years to 10 years longer than their comparably priced wooden counterparts. They&#;ll last even longer when you choose a fence with vinyl coated mesh. If you are looking for a durable solution, chain link fences are an excellent choice.
Chain link fences are remarkably easy to install. Most chain link fences can be installed by amateurs in just a matter of hours, making them a perfect choice for someone interested in high quality, without a long and drawn-out installation process. Chain link fences are also the least expensive type of fence on the market, but their low cost does not mean that they are low quality. Why invest in a higher cost, lower quality fence that will last a fraction of the time of a chain link fence? Because of their high quality and the time and money they&#;ll save you, the utility offered by a chain link fence is second to none. From the school yard to the back yard, chain link fences have come to be the face of reliability and durability. Chain link fences are made with galvanized metal to prevent rust and to withstand the wear and tear of the elements. They are weather sustaining because of their mesh open links, so even the most extreme weather will have little effect on them. These fences are an excellent choice no matter the climate.
Chain link fences require less maintenance and fewer repairs over their lifespans than comparable wooden alternatives. In fact, chain link fences rarely require any maintenance or repairs. Wooden fences would require you to restain them every two years and repaint them every four years. The cost of the tools, time, and labor necessary to upkeep a wooden fence quickly adds up. Wooden fences are also susceptible to damage from pests such as termites, and can warp dramatically when exposed to high levels of humidity. When a wooden fence is partially damaged, it is often more cost effective to replace the entire fence rather than repair the damaged part of the fence. In the event that a component of a chain link fence is damaged, that component can usually be cheaply ordered and easily replaced without any professional assistance.
Chain link fences are a reliable option for all of your commercial and residential fencing needs. They are among the most inexpensive options available while also being among the longest lasting. Chain link fences are durable, simple to install, easy to maintain, and straightforward to repair, making them one of the best options available in today&#;s fence market.
