Chain Link Fence Services
for Merkel, Abilene, TX & Beyond

D & M Fencing is the fence company to trust in the Merkel and Abilene, TX area for chain link fence or “galvanized fencing” installations. Chain link fences are made of woven steel wire that forms a diamond pattern and is then galvanized to protect it from corrosion or rust. Because of its economical nature, chain link fencing is utilized in both residential and commercial metal fence applications. Because of the security it offers, it is favored by state and local governments. Our chain link fence is also commonly used as temporary or construction site fencing to help protect job sites from pedestrians.

Along with our traditional chain link fences, we also offer black chain link fencing. These fences are constructed the same way as traditional chain link but are coated with a vinyl or powder coating to protect them from rust and corrosion. Both styles are excellent permanent and temporary fencing options. Give us a call today for more information!

The Benefits of a Chain Link Fence

Why have a chain link fence installed on your property? We’re glad you asked! The following are some reasons to choose a chain link fence:

● Little Maintenance - wood fences require periodic painting and staining to keep them in good shape. Not so with chain link fences! As long as the foundation is stable, just wash stains with dish soap and water.

● Bang for Your Buck - chain link fences offer excellent value when compared to other fencing materials. They also stand up to most weather elements, and they have fewer parts that can break down or deteriorate.

● Safety - a chain link fence creates a boundary around your home to keep pets and small children from wandering too far. If you prefer more privacy, it can easily be equipped with a screen or covering.

● Durability - constructed of galvanized steel, chain link fences are immune to pests, rot, and dirt.

● Customizable - chain link fences are available in multiple heights, thicknesses, and colors.

If you have questions about chain link fences, please do not hesitate to call us.

Maintenance Tips for Your Chain Link Fence

Most property owners install chain link fences and forget about them after. Although they are very durable, they still require constant care and maintenance.

This help keeps them doing their best and prolongs their life. Here are some tips for maintaining your fence:

• Apply a Zinc Coating: Chain link fences are made of metal that is regularly exposed to the elements. These conditions can accelerate the rusting process. Applying a zinc coating to your fence will help prevent corrosion. The coatings can last anywhere from five to twenty years.

• Keep Pets Away from Your Fence: Pets are animals and have an instinct for wanting to sniff, chew, and scratch things which can include your fence. Pets will bring moisture that can increase oxidation, also known as rusting, and they may also chew and paw at your fence which can damage it. So, keep them away as best as you can.

• Remove Rust From Your Fence: It is impossible to stop the oxidation process. If you notice some rust on your chain link fencing, use a wire brush to scrub it away.

• Power Wash your Fence: Keeping your fence clean is important for preventing rust and damage to it. The most effective method for cleaning your fence is to use pressure washing.
