We ‘ve all heard the old saying about wanting a house with a “white picket fence.” While this may bring a vision of a simpler time, modern residential fencing often requires more than just a simple fence. Total Fence Inc., the leading provider of residential and commercial fencing in Toronto, realizes this; that’s why we provide our clients with fencing that is ideally suited to their needs.

Types of Commercial & Residential Fences

Chain link fencing

Contrary to what they might say about white picket fences, chain link fences in Toronto are a popular option. Made from well-woven steel, chain-link iron fencing creates a simple but attractive zigzag design that resembles a diamond pattern.

Different Types of Chain Link Fence

Mesh
A popular option that chain link fence companies offer is netting or mesh. Industrial chain link fence contractors in Toronto can provide steel chain link fences in a variety of weights or gauges. The lower the gauge, the heavier the wire; the higher the gauge, the thinner the wire. Thinner fences, such as an 11-gauge, tend to be a little more cost effective when compared to thicker fences. The thickest (or heaviest) you can get is a 9-gauge. Depending on the size you select, the mesh diameter can also vary, although the most common commercial chain link fences in Toronto have two-inch mesh squares. However, you’ll be able to find larger, heavier options for construction-grade fencing.

Colour-Coated
Chain link fence contractors Toronto may also offer different colour-coating options for your new fence. How can they add colour to chain link fences and gates? Contractors can add rubberized PVC coatings over the zinc finish. Your choice of colour will depend on where your fence is located and what its purpose is. For example, natural and organic colours like greens and browns are well suited for backyards, since they blend into the background more flawlessly. The heavier the coating, the longer it’ll last—they can range from 10 to 14 millimetres thick. Colour coating can help prevent rusting, and give your fence an overall smooth finish that’ll be safer for kids. Standard colours include black, brown, and green.

Metallic-Coated
Wire chain-link fences are often coated with zinc to help protect against the oxidization of metals. Its important for your fence to be protected against oxidization because oxidization can lead to rust. The sooner your fence begins to rust, the sooner you’ll need chain link fence repairs in Toronto, which will subsequently cost you more money. Traditional metallic-coated chain link fences are one of the most effective and economical options when it comes to fencing, and they are the number-one selling fence system in the world according to the American Fence Association. It’s a popular option for both residential and commercial properties in urban and suburban settings.

Slatted
Slatted chain link fences can offer homeowners more privacy in their yards, since they block off way more space than traditional chain link fences. This is a common option for those who aren’t necessarily fans of the standard chain link fence aesthetic. There are two looks for slatted fences; in either case, a traditional chain link fence is accompanied by privacy slats. They can either be adhered to one side of the fence, or weaved through it. Slats can come in different colours, but are usually seen in the traditional black, green, or brown.

Wood Fencing
