The Smart Choice for Affordable Fencing
Chain link fencing delivers the best value of any fencing material available today. It secures your property, contains pets and children, and defines boundaries without breaking the budget. For homeowners in Slidell, Covington, Mandeville, and across St. Tammany Parish who need dependable fencing at a reasonable price, chain link is the clear winner. We install chain link fencing in Mandeville for everything from residential pet enclosures to larger lakeside properties that need secure perimeters.
Our team at Venture Concrete & Fencing installs chain link fences using commercial-grade framework and tension wire systems. Every end post gets set in concrete. Top rails join with pressed-steel fittings. The mesh gets stretched tight, so the fence looks clean and straight for years.
Advantages of Chain Link Fencing
- Exceptional durability - Galvanized steel shrugs off rust and stands up to Louisiana rain, humidity, and Gulf storms for 20 years or more.
- Virtually maintenance-free - No painting, staining, or sealing required. An occasional rinse with a garden hose is all it takes to keep your fence looking sharp.
- Fast installation - Chain link goes up faster than wood or vinyl, which means lower labor costs and less disruption to your daily routine.
- Versatile configurations - Available in heights from 3 to 12 feet, with options for barbed wire, privacy slats, and windscreen for commercial applications.
- Open visibility - Ideal for front yards, side boundaries, and properties where you want security without blocking views or natural light.
Residential Chain Link Fencing
Residential chain link fences are most commonly installed at 4 or 6 feet high to contain pets, mark property lines, and protect gardens. We use 11.5-gauge galvanized wire fabric as standard, which provides a sturdy mesh that won't sag or stretch under normal conditions. For families with dogs that jump or push against the fence, we offer 9-gauge heavy-duty mesh for added strength.
Residential installations include a walk gate at minimum, with optional double-swing drive gates for backyard access. All gates feature self-closing hinges and secure latches that meet pool enclosure codes when required.
Commercial Chain Link Fencing
Commercial properties have different security demands, and our chain link systems scale to meet them. We install 6 to 12-foot perimeter fences for warehouses, construction sites, storage yards, and municipal facilities throughout the Northshore. Commercial jobs usually get heavier 9-gauge or 6-gauge fabric with line posts every 8 feet. We can add three-strand barbed wire arms, razor ribbon, or knuckle-top finishes where the job calls for them.
We also set temporary chain link panels for job sites and events. When the project wraps up, we can convert them into permanent fencing.
Material Options
Galvanized Chain Link
Standard galvanized chain link is the most economical option. The zinc coating protects the steel from rust and provides a bright, metallic finish. Galvanized fencing is available in all heights and gauges, making it suitable for any residential or commercial application where appearance is secondary to function.
Vinyl-Coated Chain Link
Vinyl-coated chain link wraps every wire in colored PVC. It fights rust even harder and looks softer in the yard. Available in black, green, brown, and white, vinyl coating helps the fence blend with landscaping or match your home's color scheme. The coating also eliminates the metallic glare of bare galvanized wire, giving the fence a more refined look.
Gate Options
Every chain link fence installation includes at least one gate, and we offer several configurations to match your access needs:
- Walk gates - single-swing gates, 3 to 4 feet wide, for walking through - with spring hinges that close behind you if you want them.
- Double-swing gates - 8 to 16-foot openings that accommodate vehicles, trailers, and equipment. Center drop rods secure both panels when closed.
- Sliding cantilever gates - For commercial properties with grade changes or limited swing clearance. Motor-operated options available for automated access control.
