Chain Link Fence in Cañon City, CO | Galvanized & Black Vinyl Chain-Link
Engineered for high-wind corridors, high-altitude UV resistance, and rugged mountain terrain. Built with a 3-Year Craftsmanship Warranty.
1. Cost-Effective, Secure & Long-Lasting Boundary Protection
When you need durable, dependable, and cost-effective boundary containment, chain-link fencing is one of the most versatile choices available. Whether you are enclosing a backyard to keep energetic dogs safely contained, securing an equipment storage yard, or fencing a large acreage parcel, chain-link offers unmatched longevity and value. Epic Fences installs heavy-duty residential and commercial chain-link systems across Cañon City, Florence, Penrose, and surrounding Fremont County areas.
2. Ideal Applications: Backyards, Pet Enclosures, Acreage & Commercial Yards
Chain-link fencing is the workhorse of the fencing world, perfectly suited for:
- Pet & Dog Runs: Keeps pets safely inside your yard while preserving open mountain views and allowing airflow.
- Residential Property Boundaries: An economical way to enclose large backyard perimeters and side yards.
- Acreage & Garden Enclosures: Protects gardens and orchards from deer, rabbits, and wildlife.
- Commercial & Industrial Yards: High-security perimeter fencing for contractor yards, storage facilities, and utility stations.
3. Galvanized vs. Black Vinyl-Coated Chain-Link Options
We offer both traditional galvanized steel and modern color-coated chain-link systems:
- Hot-Dipped Galvanized Chain-Link: Traditional zinc-coated steel fabric and tubing that provides exceptional corrosion resistance at an accessible price point.
- Black Vinyl-Coated (All-Black System): A sleek, modern alternative featuring high-tensile steel wire coated in durable black PVC, paired with black powder-coated posts, top rails, and fittings. The black mesh blends into the natural mountain landscape and almost disappears against foliage and foothills.
- Color Options: Available in standard Black, Forest Green, and Commercial Brown.
4. Privacy Slat Additions & Wind-Screen Options
Need privacy or wind reduction with the durability of a chain-link framework? We install high-density polyethylene (HDPE) privacy slats:
- Bottom-Locking & Top-Locking Slats: Clean vertical slats that slide into the diamond mesh, providing approximately 75% to 85% visual blockage.
- Windscreen Fabric: Breathable, heavy-duty polypropylene mesh ideal for tennis courts, commercial yards, and high-wind corridors.
5. Proper Terminal Post Setting in Rocky Colorado Ground
The structural strength of a chain-link fence depends entirely on proper tensioning and terminal post stability:
- Heavy Terminal & Corner Posts: Terminal posts (corners, ends, and gate posts) absorb all tension from the stretched mesh. We set heavy Schedule 40 steel terminal posts deep in solid concrete footings.
- Hydraulic Fence Stretching: We use professional come-along pullers and tension bars to stretch the mesh drum-tight so it never sags, bows, or lifts along the bottom rail.
- Bottom Tension Wire: Prevents dogs from pushing underneath the fence line.
6. Chain-Link Gates: Single Walk-Through, Double Drive & Cantilever
We custom-build chain-link gates to fit your exact access requirements:
- Residential Walk Gates: Welded square steel frames with latch collars and padlock-compatible hardware.
- Double-Swing Driveway Gates: Wide access for trailers, RVs, mowers, and heavy equipment.
- Commercial Cantilever Slide Gates: Sliding security gates with enclosed nylon roller assemblies for smooth winter operation.
7. Chain-Link Fence Pricing & Linear Footage Cost Factors
Chain-link is one of the most budget-friendly fencing materials per linear foot. Project pricing factors include:
- Wire Gauge & Mesh Size: Standard residential 11-gauge vs. heavy 9-gauge or 6-gauge commercial mesh.
- Finish Selection: Galvanized vs. black vinyl-coated framework and fittings.
- Fence Height: Standard residential 4ft, 5ft, or 6ft heights vs. commercial 7ft or 8ft heights with barbed wire.
- Gate Sizes & Upgrades: Standard 4ft walk gates vs. wide double-drive gates or cantilever slide gates.
