The Smart Choice for Security + Value

When you need a fencing solution that prioritizes strength, security, and value, chain link is the workhorse that delivers. At Buda Fence Company, we build modern chain link fences that are tight, straight, and built to last—without the shortcuts.

From backyards and dog runs to commercial lots and long property lines, we'll help you choose the right height, gauge, coating, and add-ons (privacy slats, windscreen, barbed wire where appropriate).

Why Choose a Chain Link Fence?

Practical benefits that make chain link a no-brainer for many properties.

Unbeatable Value

Chain link is one of the most cost-effective fences per linear foot—especially for large areas—while still delivering security and longevity.

Durable for Texas Weather

Heavy-gauge steel + galvanized or vinyl coating helps resist rust and corrosion for 20–30+ years with minimal upkeep.

High Security + Visibility

Great for properties where you want a clear line of sight while keeping pets in and unwanted guests out.

Fast Installation

Many projects install at roughly 150–200 ft/day, depending on layout and terrain—so you get secured quickly.

Chain Link Fence Options

Pick the right combination of performance + aesthetics.

Galvanized Chain Link

Classic silver/gray finish with zinc galvanization for rust protection. Ideal for large runs and commercial use.

Pros

  • Lowest cost per foot
  • Excellent durability
  • Great for long property lines
  • 20–30 year lifespan

Cons

  • More industrial look
  • Less "hidden" in landscaping

Black Vinyl-Coated Chain Link

Galvanized steel core with a vinyl (PVC) coating for added protection and a cleaner, more modern look that blends into landscaping.

Pros

  • Best-looking option
  • Extra corrosion protection
  • Great for homes + HOAs
  • 30+ year potential lifespan

Cons

  • Higher cost than galvanized
  • May fade slightly over time

Privacy Slats & Windscreen Fabric

Add privacy without losing airflow. Privacy slats are popular for trash enclosures, pool areas, and backyards. Windscreen fabric is great for wind reduction and added visual screening.

Our Professional Installation Process

Straight, tight, secure—built to last.

1

Consultation & Layout

We confirm layout, property lines, gate needs, and recommend height + gauge + coating based on your goals.

2

Heavy-Duty Posts + Extra Concrete

Terminal posts (corners/ends/gates) get the strength they need—set deep and solid so your fence stays rigid.

3

Top Rail + Hardware

We install the framework and hardware correctly so the mesh stays tight and performs long-term.

4

Stretch Mesh Taut

This is where quality shows. We stretch it correctly so it won't sag, bow, or rattle.

5

Final Walkthrough & Cleanup

We verify alignment, gate swing/latch, and overall finish—then leave your property clean.
