Chain-Link Fences
Affordable, durable, and practical chain-link fencing for residential and commercial properties in Cupertino.
Chain-link fencing gets the job done without breaking your budget. It's tough, long-lasting, and requires almost no maintenance. Whether you need to secure a backyard, contain pets, protect equipment, or mark property boundaries, chain-link delivers practical security at a price that makes sense.
At BayCrew Cupertino Fencing, we've been installing quality chain-link fences throughout the area since 2024. We understand that chain-link isn't about fancy appearances. It's about function, durability, and value. We install chain-link the right way so it stands straight, stays secure, and lasts for decades with minimal attention.
Why Choose Chain-Link Fencing
Chain-link might not be the fanciest option, but it's one of the smartest for many situations. Here's why so many property owners choose chain-link:
- Most affordable option: Chain-link costs significantly less than wood, vinyl, or metal alternatives
- Extremely durable: Galvanized steel resists rust and stands up to weather, impacts, and time
- Low maintenance: No painting, staining, or regular upkeep required. Just occasional cleaning
- Quick installation: Chain-link goes up faster than other fence types, reducing labor costs
- See-through design: Doesn't block views or create dark corners, which improves security visibility
- Pet-friendly: Keeps dogs safely contained while allowing them to see what's happening outside
- Won't rot or warp: Steel doesn't have the decay issues that plague wood fencing
Chain-link works particularly well for backyards, dog runs, play areas, tennis courts, commercial properties, and anywhere you need secure boundaries without high costs. When you work with BayCrew Cupertino Fencing, you get professional installation that ensures your chain-link fence stands straight and strong.
Chain-Link Options & Features
Chain-link fencing offers more options than you might think. Here's what you can customize to fit your specific needs:
Fence Height
Common heights range from 3 feet to 8 feet. Most residential backyards use 4-foot or 6-foot heights. Commercial properties often need 6 feet or taller for security. We'll help you determine the right height for your purpose and any local regulations.
Wire Gauge & Mesh Size
Thicker wire (lower gauge numbers like 9 or 11 gauge) provides extra strength for high-traffic areas or added security. Standard mesh openings are 2 inches, but smaller mesh can keep small animals from squeezing through. We recommend the right specifications based on your situation.
Framework & Posts
Posts and top rails come in galvanized steel or aluminum. Terminal posts (corner and end posts) are typically thicker than line posts for added support. We use proper post spacing and deep concrete footings for maximum stability.
Color & Privacy
Standard chain-link is silver galvanized steel. You can also get vinyl-coated chain-link in black, green, brown, or other colors for a more finished look. Add privacy slats (vertical strips woven through the mesh) for visual screening while maintaining airflow. Slats come in various colors to match your property.
Security Features
Add barbed wire or razor wire along the top for enhanced security (common for commercial properties). Install tension wire along the bottom to prevent animals from pushing underneath. Use locking gates with security hardware for controlled access points.
