How Much Does Chain Link Fencing Cost?

FloriFence performs many chain link fencing installations throughout the year. This practical fencing option offers some privacy, security, and safety for your family and pets. However, we encourage customers to learn as much as they can before making the final decision for their fencing installation. Here’s everything you need to know about chain link to determine if its right for you: 

Chain link fencing is a popular option for many reasons. One of the biggest reasons we hear from customers is the price. Chain link is one of the most affordable fencing options and offers a practical solution for keeping your family safe and unwanted guests out. 

Chain link fencing costs between $3 and $10 per square foot. The exact pricing depends on several factors including quality, color, and the total yardage of chain-link purchased. 

Chain link is also highly popular for commercial fencing installations. Because of its low cost, you can cover a large area with chain link and save hundreds of dollars as compared to vinyl or aluminum. However, choosing chain link over other materials depends on several factors other than price: 

• Do you like the look of chain link? Chain link is highly practical, but it is not always considered to be aesthetically desirable. If you are concerned about the appearance of your fence or have to follow certain HOA guidelines, chain link might not be right for you. 
• Are you worried about break-ins? Chain link is sturdy but it can be climbed and cut with wire cutters if someone is looking to break in. Vinyl and wooden fences are more difficult to break into, which is why we recommend them specifically for security fencing. 
• Are you looking to keep large pets in? Chain link fencing will keep some pets in but because it is not typically installed deep into the ground, some dogs may be able to dig under it. If your dog is an avid digger, consider vinyl or wooden fencing instead.
