#1 Chain-Link Fencing Company in El Cajon, CA

Initial Consultation

The first step in our chain-link fencing process is to schedule a consultation at your property. During this on-site visit, our fencing expert will inspect your property, discuss your project goals, assess any access issues, and take precise measurements of the area to be enclosed. We will also discuss design factors like fence height, post spacing, gate quantity and location.

After gauging your unique requirements, we provide you with a detailed, competitively-priced estimate for your custom chain-link fencing project. You can also request material and color samples to envision how the fence will look.

Perimeter Layout

Once you are satisfied with the proposed fencing design and quote, we move on to staking out the perimeter layout prior to installation day. Our team will mark the spacing for all fence posts and gates to follow your approved specifications. Proper planning of the fence layout at this stage ensures accurate placement and a quality finished product.

Materials and Hardware Selection

We utilize only the best commercial-grade materials from trusted manufacturers to build secure, long-lasting chain-link fences. The framework consists of sturdy steel pipes or rails sunk in concrete to prevent loosening over time. The chain-link mesh infill is made from durable galvanized steel wire with UV-resistant PVC coating.

We also use quality gate hardware including hinges, latches and caps to match the look and strength of the fencing. All materials are chosen based on durability, functionality and aesthetics to withstand the elements and complement your landscape.

Post Hole Digging

On installation day, our professional crew will arrive with the pre-selected fencing materials and hardware. We start by digging holes for the fence posts at the marked locations around the perimeter. The holes are dug according to fence height to allow proper stability once set in concrete.

Post Setting

With the holes dug, we then set the steel posts into the holes, ensuring they are perfectly plumb. For added stability, the posts are braced temporarily until the concrete sets. Level installation of the vertical framework is key to building a secure, straight fence.

Concrete Work

The fence posts are now ready to be encased in concrete. This provides the strong, fixed foundation to prevent any shifting or leaning over time. We allow several days for the concrete to fully cure before completing the fence construction.

Chain-Link Installation

After the fencing framework is firmly in place, we move on to the chain-link installation. The durable galvanized mesh is unfurled and tightly stretched across the post framework using stainless steel fasteners. Overlapping sections of mesh are securely joined to form a continuous barrier.

Tension Bands and Wire

Tension bands are installed top and bottom to pull and hold the chain-link taut. This keeps the mesh fence material looking crisp and prevents sagging. We also thread galvanized wire through the mesh openings for added fence rigidity and security.

Gates, Fittings and Caps

Matching gates are built and hung to provide access through your new fence. We complete the professional installation with decorative post caps, gate latches, hinges and any other chosen fittings. This finishes off the fence for functionality, security and aesthetics.

Cleanup and Inspection

As the final step, we do a thorough cleanup to leave your property looking neat. We also schedule a follow-up visit to inspect the completed fence and make any adjustments needed to ensure your 100% satisfaction. Our work is not done until you are happy with your new chain-link fence.
