What is a "chain-link fence"?
A chain-link fence is a type of fence made from woven steel wire that forms a mesh pattern. It is often used to enclose areas like yards, parks, or sports fields. The fence consists of vertical posts with horizontal wires running between them, creating a strong but open structure. Chain-link fences are durable, cost-effective, and provide visibility while maintaining a level of security. They are commonly used in both residential and commercial settings.
