Now Offering Chain Link Fence Installation

Chain link fence installation by Rain City Fence on a residential property

Chain link fence installation is now available at Rain City Fence, expanding our services beyond the cedar fencing we’re known for throughout the Pacific Northwest. We’ve built our reputation on quality craftsmanship, durable materials, and fences designed to perform in our region’s wet climate.

Chain link fence installation offers a practical, cost-effective option for homeowners who value function, security, and long-term durability. Whether you’re enclosing a backyard, securing a side yard, or replacing an aging fence, chain link can be a smart alternative depending on your property layout and needs.


Why We Now Offer Chain Link Fence Installation

Over the years, many homeowners have asked us for fencing options beyond cedar—especially for areas where privacy isn’t the primary concern. In response, we’ve added chain link fencing to meet those needs while maintaining the same standards of craftsmanship and clear communication Rain City Fence is known for.

Chain link fencing is especially popular for:

  • Side yards and backyards

  • Dog runs and pet enclosures

  • Property boundaries where visibility matters

  • Budget-conscious fence projects

  • Utility or access areas

By offering both cedar and chain link, we can now help homeowners choose the right fence for each part of their property, not just a single solution.


Benefits of Chain Link Fence Installation

Chain link fencing has remained a popular choice for residential and commercial properties for decades—and for good reason. When installed correctly and built to industry standards, chain link offers a reliable balance of durability, affordability, and long-term performance. In addition to its practical benefits, it’s also widely recognized as one of the most eco-friendly fencing materials available today due to its recyclability and long lifespan.

Durability in the Pacific Northwest Climate

Chain link fencing performs exceptionally well in the Pacific Northwest’s wet, variable weather. Galvanized steel components are designed to resist rust and corrosion, even with year-round exposure to rain and moisture. As a result, chain link fences maintain their structural integrity far longer than many traditional wood options, especially in areas with heavy soil saturation or limited drying periods.

Cost-Effective for Large or Open Areas

Compared to wood fencing, chain link typically comes with a lower upfront investment. This makes it an excellent option for enclosing larger properties, side yards, pet areas, or commercial spaces where budget and coverage matter. Additionally, the long service life of galvanized chain link reduces the likelihood of costly repairs or early replacement.

Visibility and Open Sightlines

Because chain link fencing is open by design, it maintains clear sightlines across a property. This visibility makes it easier to monitor pets, children, or shared property boundaries while still establishing a defined perimeter. For many homeowners, this openness strikes the right balance between security and awareness.

Low Maintenance Requirements

Unlike wood fencing, chain link does not require staining, sealing, or repainting. Routine maintenance is minimal and typically limited to occasional cleaning or vegetation control near the fence line. Over time, this low-maintenance design helps homeowners save both time and money.

Environmentally Responsible Choice

Chain link fencing is often overlooked for its sustainability benefits. However, galvanized steel is highly recyclable, and its long lifespan reduces material waste over time. According to industry research, chain link remains one of the most eco-friendly fencing materials available, especially when compared to fencing options that require frequent chemical treatments or replacement.

When Chain Link Makes the Most Sense

While cedar fencing is still our go-to for privacy and curb appeal, chain link is often the better fit in certain situations.

Chain link fencing works well when:

  • Privacy isn’t a priority

  • You need a durable fence quickly

  • You’re fencing a large area

  • You want a long-term, low-maintenance solution

  • The fence is primarily functional

Many homeowners choose a combination approach—cedar fencing for visible areas and chain link for side or back sections.


Chain Link vs Cedar: Choosing the Right Fence

Every property is different, and the “right” fence depends on how you use your space.

Cedar fencing is ideal if you want:

  • Privacy

  • Warm, natural aesthetics

  • Increased curb appeal

  • Custom styles and design details

Chain link fencing is ideal if you want:

  • Clear boundaries

  • Security without blocking views

  • A lower upfront investment

  • Minimal ongoing maintenance

During your free estimate, we’ll walk through your options and help you decide what works best for your yard, budget, and long-term plans.
