Chain Link Fencing in Corpus Christi, TX
Light Commercial Chain Link
Light commercial chain link is a better option for chain fence applications. Light commercial grade uses 11.5ga fence fabric compared to the 12.5ga residential fabric. We use a larger diameter line post of 1 7/8" for light commercial with a .065 wall thickness. D&C installs a larger top rail of 1 5/8" x .065 for light commercial grade chain link. This grade of chain link fence is highly recommended for residential applications in harsher climates or with larger dogs. It has more galvanizing applied to the materials than the residential increasing strength and longevity. Feel free to ask for this option on your estimate.
Commercial chain link is great option for a slightly stronger fence than the light commercial. Our commercial grade chain link uses 11ga fence fabric and is highly recommended for standard commercial applications. It has more galvanizing applied to the materials than the residential and light commercial fabric, increasing strength and longevity. The framework can always be upgraded to a heavier schedule 40 pipe (posts and top rail).
INDUSTRIAL CHAIN LINK
Industrial Grade Chain Link fencing is very heavy-duty chain link fence that is most often installed in very harsh environments, heavy commercial properties, refineries, specked jobs, airports, military bases, etc. Many standard commercial applications call for this type of fencing as well. Industrial grade chain fencing suits well for security because it is a much heavier material. The typical fence fabric used is 9ga with 1.2 oz of galvanized zinc coating. The galvanizing can be increased to 2oz coating if desired. Typical line posts for industrial grade chain link fencing is 1 7/8" in diameter or 2 3/8" in diameter depending on what is specified or requested. The top rail is 1 5/8"in diameter and all framework installed is schedule 40 pipe.
