Chainwire Fencing

This method of fencing has stood the test of time and continues to be very popular. A chainwire fence (also referred to by a number of other names such as chain mesh fencing, chain link fencing, wire-mesh fence, wire netting, wire fence, cyclone fence or diamond-mesh fence) is a type of woven fence which is usually made from galvanized steel wire. Chainwire fences commonly come with a green or black coloured PVC coating.

The wires run vertically but are bent and linked in a zig-zag, forming the diamond pattern seen in this type of fence.

Chainwire characteristics

When choosing a chainwire fence, there are three attributes that you must be aware of. These are:

Diamond size: This is the size of the link holes. The standard diamond sizes have a pitch of 60 and 50 but the diamond size can range from a pitch of 25 to a pitch of 100.

Top and bottom (selvedge) finish: A chainwire fence can either be finished with a smooth or barbed end depending on its purpose.

Wire thickness: There is light and heavy chainwire. Wire with a heavy thickness is stronger and more durable.

Chainwire Fencing Applications

You’ll often see chainwire employed to fence:

sport facilities like tennis courts, cricket, softball and baseball practice nets and other sports grounds
schools and childcare facilities
factory, office and industrial building site enclosures
internal factory partitions
acreage
animal enclosures

Since you can see through a chainwire fence, it is unobstrusive and will maintain a feeling of openness and space. PVC coated black chainwire is now very fashionable and looks great in a residential setting. To set the look of the fence off, add a top and bottom rail.
