Dependable Chain Link Fence Installation
Allen Fence Company provides professional chain link fence installation for residential, commercial, and agricultural properties across Ontario. Durable, low-maintenance, and cost-effective, chain link is one of the most practical fencing solutions available — and when it’s installed right, it lasts decades. Whether you need to secure a backyard, enclose a pool, or protect a commercial yard, our crew installs chain link to last through Ontario winters without sagging, rusting prematurely, or losing tension.
We carry galvanized and black chain link in a range of heights and mesh gauges. Every installation includes properly set posts with concrete footings sized for Ontario frost depth, tension wire along the bottom, and galvanized hardware throughout. We also build and hang chain link gates — single walk gates and large double drive gates — as part of the same installation.
Chain Link Fence Installation for Every Application
Chain link suits a wide range of projects, and the right setup varies depending on what you’re enclosing and why. Residential backyard installations typically use 4-foot or 5-foot galvanized or black chain link to keep pets and children contained without fully blocking sightlines. Commercial and industrial properties often require taller runs — 6-foot, 8-foot, or higher — with heavier gauge mesh, barbed wire toppers, and larger diameter posts to meet security requirements. Pool enclosures follow Ontario Building Code specifications for gate latches and fence height. We know these requirements and build accordingly so your installation passes inspection the first time.
For properties where appearance matters as much as function, black chain link is a popular choice. The darker finish reads as less visually prominent than galvanized silver, making it a better fit for residential and semi-commercial settings where you want a secure perimeter without the industrial look.
Commercial and Security Chain Link Fencing
Allen Fence Company has experience with commercial chain link installations ranging from small business lots to large industrial perimeter fencing. We work with property owners, contractors, and site managers to plan and execute chain link projects at any scale. Commercial installations typically involve heavier line posts, larger corner and terminal posts, and fencing fabric with a tighter gauge for added rigidity.
Where security is the primary concern, we install barbed wire toppers, tension cable, and commercial-grade locking gates. Fabric heights of 8 to 12 feet are available for high-security applications. All commercial work is installed with appropriate post depth for Ontario’s frost line so posts stay plumb year after year — no heaving, no leaning, no callbacks.
Pool Enclosures and Safety Fencing
Chain link pool fencing is one of the most common pool enclosure options in Ontario, and for good reason — it’s affordable, durable, and fully compliant with Ontario Building Code when properly installed. Pool fence must meet specific requirements for height, gate hardware, and clearance that differ from standard fence installations. Our crew installs pool chain link to code, with self-closing, self-latching gates, proper clearances, and no gaps at the base that a child could slip under.
If you’ve already received a quote from another contractor, we’re happy to review the scope and provide a second opinion. Getting the spec right on a pool enclosure matters — an installation that doesn’t pass inspection means paying to have it corrected.
Chain Link Fence Installation Done Right
We’ve been installing chain link in Ontario long enough to know where shortcuts show up later — undersized posts, shallow footings, loose tension, hardware that corrodes in the first season. We don’t cut those corners. Every chain link installation we do gets properly tensioned fabric, adequate post depth, and hardware selected for long-term outdoor use.
We’re a family-owned, fully licensed and insured fence company. No subcontracting, no surprises on the invoice. We provide written quotes before any work begins and stand behind what we install. If you’re comparing chain link contractors in the area, give us a call and we’ll come out, walk the property, and give you a straight answer on what the job requires and what it will cost.
