A chain link fence is a type of fencing made from interwoven steel wire, creating a diamond pattern. It is commonly used for security and boundary purposes in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. The fence is durable, weather-resistant, and can be coated with vinyl or galvanized to prevent rust. These fences are typically easy to install and maintain, making them a popular choice for enclosing yards, parks, and construction sites. They provide visibility while still offering a level of protection, allowing light and air to pass through. Chain link fences can also be customized in height and color to suit specific needs.
