Chain Link Fence Installation in Flower Mound, TX

Chain link fence cost is driven by linear footage, height, wire gauge, galvanized versus vinyl coated fabric, gate count and type, terrain, and any security add-ons. It's the least expensive fence we install per foot, but the honest number comes from a tape measure. We take every measurement at your free on-site assessment, and the number we quote is the number you pay.

Almost always, and it asks less of you over its life: no staining, no picket replacement, no rot. What it doesn't give you is privacy or the look most HOAs want out front. If those matter, we'll steer you toward cedar or composite instead of pretending fabric does what boards do.

Galvanized is the economical workhorse: hot-dipped zinc over steel, decades of rust resistance, the standard for commercial yards. Vinyl coated costs a bit more and buys you color, black, green or brown, plus a second layer of protection over the wire. In a backyard, black vinyl is usually worth it; it visually disappears in a way bare silver never does.

For a backyard or dog run, 11 to 11.5 gauge at 4 to 6 feet does the job. For anything commercial, industrial or abuse-prone, step up to 9 gauge on bigger posts at 6 feet or taller. Heavier wire costs more once and stays tight for decades, and we'll spec it straight at the assessment.

Terminal posts, the ones at ends, corners and gates, get the deepest concrete footings because they carry all the tension. Line posts run between them at roughly 10 feet or tighter. Every post sets in concrete, and nothing gets dug until Texas 811 marks the utilities.

Yes. Chain link is the most forgiving fence on a grade: we can follow the slope so the bottom gap stays consistent, or step the runs where the site calls for it. Rocky pockets just mean the right auger and some patience, not a shallower hole.

Galvanized fabric typically runs 20 to 30 years here, and vinyl coated often goes longer because the PVC skin adds a second barrier over the zinc. Posts set properly in concrete outlast the fabric itself. That lifespan for the money is exactly why schools and cities keep buying it.

Depends on the city and the neighborhood. Some North DFW cities want a fence permit, and plenty of HOAs restrict chain link to back yards or require a coated color. We confirm both at your free on-site assessment and prepare whatever drawings your HOA wants to see.

Yes, three ways: slats woven vertically through the mesh, windscreen fabric stretched across the run, or a hedge grown along the line. Slats and screens block most of the sightline the day we install them. If you want true full privacy, that's a boards conversation, and we'll say so.

It's half our chain link work: warehouse perimeters, school and daycare enclosures, ballfield backstops, equipment yards, parking lots and construction sites. Commercial jobs get 9 gauge fabric, heavier posts, and gates sized for trucks, including cantilever gates that roll across wide drives without a ground track.

Almost none, which is the sales pitch. Rinse it when it's dirty, keep string trimmers off the bottom wire, and have the tension checked if a car or a falling limb finds it. Vinyl coated fabric just wants an occasional look for nicks. There's nothing to stain, seal or repaint.

It depends on footage, gate count and how the concrete cures, so we'd rather give you a real schedule than a slogan. You get a realistic timeline with your quote after the free on-site assessment, and we clean the site every day we're on it.

Every chain link job carries our workmanship warranty on top of top quality materials. If fabric loosens, a gate sags or a post moves because of how we built it, we come back and fix it. One call, no runaround.
