Chain Link Fence is a flexible woven wire fence in diamond opening offering excellent visual and aesthetic effects, widely used for farming fencing, airport, power plants, highways, playground and residential perimeter fencing.
Chain link mesh is popularly made of wire gauges from 14 gauge (light type fence), 12 gauge (heavy type fence) to 10 gauge (very heavy fences), according to international standards.
Chain link fence mesh is a durable, secure and low-cost fencing material, commonly made of galvanized steel wire, also available with a colored vinyl coating.
Using chain link fence for farm fencing has several benefits:
Unobstructed view through the fence;
Difficult to climb;
Smooth and safe for animals;
Strong and durable in uses;
Easy and quick installation and low maintenance cost.
Finishes: Aluminum, galvanised or PVC-coated.
Mesh openings: 1/2", 3/4", 4/5", 1", 2"

All required fittings and hardware are of suitable aluminium alloy or of steel or malleable or ductile cast iron, galvanized in accordance with BS 443.
Fittings and hardware designed so as to fit or fasten to the posts in the proper manner without bending or distortion and free from defects, and of adequate strength.
Construction of Chain Link Fence and Gates
Grading
Prior to the erection of the chain link fence, ensure that debris is removed and minor ground undulations are corrected to obtain a smooth uniform gradient. The space between the surface of the ground and the bottom of the fabric shall not exceed 50 mm.
Posts Installation
In determining the post spacing, measurement will be made parallel to the slope of the ground. All posts shall be placed in a vertical position and set accurately to line and position as established by the Engineer.
Post shall be installed at equal intervals as directed by the Engineer.
Changes in line horizontally where the angle or deflection is 20 degrees or more shall be considered as corners and corner posts shall be installed.
Posts in earth, loose and friable rock, shall be set in concrete footings of the depth and dimensions. In such cases, where the size of hole exceeds the minimum dimensions of the footings, the Contractor shall either place the footing against undisturbed soil or shall backfill the hole with suitable earth material approved by the Engineer compacted to a density of 95% of maximum dry density and then bore a hole to the required minimum dimensions.
In solid rock or where ordered by the Engineer, holes for posts shall be drilled in the rock to a minimum depth of 500 mm with a diameter of. 30 mm greater than the outside diameter of the post or as otherwise directed by the Engineer.
Concrete Footing and Concrete Gate Rests
Concrete footings and gate rests shall be rough cast in the ground and domed above grade to shed the water.
Fence fabric shall not be installed until the concrete footings have cured for a period of not less than 10 days.
Tension Wire
Tension wire stretched tight and securely fastened to the posts.
Mesh Fabric Fastening
The fabric shall be stretched tight and securely fastened to end, corner, and gates posts with tension metal strips.
The fabric shall be securely fastened to the top and bottom tension wire with tie wires at 450 mm intervals, and to the line posts at 350 mm intervals or as established by the Engineer. The tie wires on the bottom tension wire shall have not less than 2 twists.
Gates Fixing
Gates shall be hung with the fastenings, approximately 100 mm from the ground.
The crimped square mesh 30 x 30 x 3 mm shall be securely fastened to frame pipes with metallic band in accordance with the Engineer's instruction.
Barbed Wire Installing
Barbed wire shall be installed above gates.
Damage to Zinc Coating
Damaged galvanized surfaces shall be cleaned and painted. Damaged areas shall be thoroughly wire brushed and all loose and cracked spelter coating removed, after which the cleaned area shall be painted with two coats of a zinc pigmented paint approved by the Engineer for this purpose. The quality and application of paint shall conform to the requirements of Section 814 - Paint and Painting - of the General Specifications.
