Chain-link panel fencing is the temporary fence you picture around a construction site: 6-foot galvanized panels standing on weighted bases, so nothing gets drilled or dug on your property. It is the only temporary fence type that acts as a real security barrier, with lockable gates, and our crew installs it, moves it when your project changes, and removes it at the end.
Quoted flat to your exact perimeter in one call. Mon-Sat, 7 AM-7 PM your local time.

What actually shows up on your site. Every rental includes professional installation and removal by our crew.
| Panel height | 6 feet standard, 8 feet available for enhanced security |
| Material | Galvanized chain-link with a top horizontal rail for rigidity |
| Anchoring | Weighted bases (concrete blocks or rubber feet), no ground penetration |
| Gates | Swing gates from 4-foot pedestrian widths to 20-plus feet for vehicles |
| Add-ons | Privacy screen, windscreen, and barbed wire topping |
| Minimum rental | One month, then month to month |
Same panels, three configurations. All quoted per project with the add-ons itemized before anything goes up.
Construction perimeters, vacant lot security, equipment yards
The baseline configuration: 6-foot galvanized panels, braced and leveled on weighted bases, with lockable gates where you need them.
Residential areas, dust control, visual barriers
Fabric screen attached to the same panels blocks sightlines and knocks down dust. The go-to for demo work near neighbors.
High-security sites, theft prevention
Barbed topping on the same panel line for sites storing tools, copper, or equipment overnight. Quoted as an add-on, up front.


Three steps, and our crew does the heavy two. Most sites are fully fenced within one business day.
Give us the perimeter footage, even roughly. We convert it to a panel count, place the gates where your trucks enter, and quote one flat rate.
Panels set, leveled, and braced on weighted bases, gates hung with locking hardware, screen attached if ordered. A 200-400 foot site takes 4-6 hours.
Phases change? One call moves the line. When the project ends, the crew removes everything, bases and all, and leaves the surface unmarked.
Honest answer: panels are the only one of the three that actually secures property. If you just need a visible boundary, mesh is cheaper. If you are steering a crowd for a day, barricades are the tool.
| Chain-Link Panel (this page) | Mesh Fencing | Steel Barricade | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Site security, construction perimeters | Boundaries, hazard zones, erosion control | Crowd control, event lines |
| Height | 6 feet (8-foot available) | 4 feet | Waist-high sections, 6-8 ft long |
| Anchoring | Weighted bases on any surface | Steel T-posts or drive-in stakes | Interlocking flat feet, freestanding |
| Security level | Real barrier with lockable gates | Visual boundary, not a barrier | Guides people, not a barrier |
| Minimum rental | One month | One month | One day |
| Who sets it up | Our crew installs and removes | Our crew installs and removes | Typically self-positioned after delivery |

Chain-link panel fencing is quoted per project: your linear footage, the gates, add-ons like privacy screen or barbed wire, and how long the fence stays up, in one all-inclusive number. Installation and removal are always in the quote, and long-term rentals of six months or more receive discounted rates. Call (866) 858-3867 for your number, or see how fencing pricing works.

Our standard panels are 6 feet tall, which is the most common height for construction sites and the one most building codes expect. 8-foot panels are available when a site needs enhanced security. Every panel is topped with a horizontal rail for structural rigidity, so the line stays straight instead of sagging between posts.

No. The panels stand on weighted bases, concrete blocks or rubber feet, so nothing gets drilled and no post holes get dug. That is what lets us install on concrete, asphalt, gravel, or grass and leave zero marks when the fence comes down. On soft ground we can drive stakes, and in high-wind areas we add sandbags to the bases.

Most perimeters are installed within one business day. A standard construction site of 200-400 linear feet typically takes our crew 4-6 hours, and very large or complex layouts can take two days. We schedule around your project, so if the site opens Monday, the fence goes up before it.
Answered by Michael V., Head of Operations
Yes. Swing gates run from 4-foot pedestrian widths to 20-plus feet for vehicles, with matching chain-link, hinges, and secure latch hardware for after-hours locking. My advice: place the gates where the trucks will actually enter, not where the site plan looks tidy. Gate placement can be adjusted during your rental, but getting it right before install day is free.
Answered by Michael V., Head of Operations
One month, then billing continues month to month for as long as the project runs. Long-term rentals of six months or more receive discounted rates, and if you are fencing multiple sites or phases, tell me the whole picture and I will quote it as one program instead of a stack of one-off rentals.
Answered by Tony D., Commercial & National Accounts Specialist
Our crew, both directions. Installation is part of the quote: panels set, leveled, braced, bases weighted, gates hung. And when the project wraps, the same crew takes everything down, bases and all, and leaves the site clean. You never touch a panel, and removal is included in the number you were quoted.
Answered by Michael V., Head of Operations
One call. As phases change our crew moves the line, adds panels, or pulls a section for equipment access, and if a panel gets damaged we repair or swap it. Do not have your own crew drag panels around: a line rebuilt by hand stops being straight, braced, or secure, and that is when things walk off sites.
Answered by Michael V., Head of Operations
Yes, and it is where we do our best work. One point of contact, one consolidated quote, and crews scheduled across every site as phases open and close. If you are ordering fence left and right across projects, I guarantee I save you some money.
