Chain link FAQ
How much does chain link fence cost in Buffalo, NY?
Chain link fence installation in Buffalo typically runs $20–$35 per linear foot installed — making it the most affordable secure fencing option. A 150-ft, 4-ft-tall galvanized chain link fence typically costs $3,000–$5,250 installed. Pricing depends on height, gauge, coating, and gates.
What's the difference between galvanized and vinyl-coated chain link?
Galvanized chain link has a zinc coating that gives it a silver appearance and protects against rust. Vinyl-coated chain link adds a PVC coating over the galvanized wire — usually black or green — for better aesthetics and additional corrosion protection. Vinyl-coated costs approximately 20–30% more.
Can I add privacy slats to chain link fence?
Yes. Aluminum or vinyl privacy slats thread through the chain link mesh and provide 75–90% privacy coverage. Available in multiple colors. They're a popular choice for homeowners who want the economy of chain link with some privacy.
What gauge chain link do you install?
Residential installs typically use 11-gauge wire with 2" mesh. Commercial and high-security applications use heavier 9-gauge wire with 2" or 1¾" mesh. We use the appropriate gauge for your application and don't cut corners with undersized wire.
