Chain link fence installation Vaughan, ON
We at Vaughan Fence install quality chain link fencing for a variety of settings and functions, including residential chain link fencing, commercial and institutional to name a few.

There are some methods to improve the appearance somewhat and some additions that can modify its function which we’ll discuss below.
Sometimes referred to as diamond mesh fence, wire mesh fence or wire netting, it is most commonly known as chain link fence. Using metal wires, it can provide a functional enclosure for different applications including:
….and much more. |

The strength and durability depends on the wire gauge. The lower the number, the thicker and more durable the wires, which would be suitable for security fencing. Many residential chain link fencing uses a gauge of around 11. High security areas would require a lower gauge to detract trespassers.
In terms of coatings and treatments, you’re looking at a couple of options. The fence can be:
Chain link fencing is not typically associated with privacy fencing, but there are some modifications that can make it more private. Sometimes, there is existing greenery including trees and shrubs that run adjacent to the fence, which in those fortunate cases, offer some level of privacy with the fencing acting as an additional security barrier. Privacy slats, which are vertical panels, provide some windbreak. Another option is privacy screens which are attached to the chain link fence to provide some privacy from prying eyes. These mesh panels usually come in black or green and block a certain percentage of light and wind from passing through.

In terms of coatings and treatments, you’re looking at a couple of options. The fence can be:
- Galvanized: this is the most common treatment whereby a layer of zinc is applied to the metal to offer some protection against moisture and corrosion.
- Vinyl-coated: as the name implies, there’s a layer of vinyl or plastic surrounding the wires. It is applied in addition to galvanization to offer an additional protective sheath from the elements and the environment. It comes in a few colours including black, brown, green and white.
- Powder-coated: this is another coating option where static and heat are used to apply a special durable and waterproof powder to the wire mesh. This is often used to improve the aesthetic appeal and doubles to resist corrosion and rust. Powder coating is often used for the posts, frame and other parts of the barrier and the vinyl coating is used directly on the mesh wires.
