Overview
Fences & Firepits installs galvanized and black vinyl-coated chain link fencing for Charlotte-area homes, businesses and property managers. Chain link is the most economical way to define a boundary, contain pets or secure a facility, and black coating gives it a cleaner look that blends into landscaping.
Is chain link right for your project?
Pets
Effective containment for most dogs; consider height for jumpers.
Pools
Generally not the first choice for residential pools in HOA communities.
HOAs
Some HOAs restrict chain link or require black coating; check your covenants first.

Chain link is ideal when cost, durability and visibility matter more than privacy: large boundaries, dog runs, side yards, sports areas and commercial perimeters.

CALL (980) 339-2182Can I add privacy to chain link later?
Privacy slats or screens can be added to some chain link fences. Ask us whether they fit your height and HOA rules.

If the fence will be visible from your house or street, many homeowners find the black coating worth the upgrade because it nearly disappears against greenery.
