Ⅱ. Calculated by the number of columns
1. Metal chain link posts cost $15 -35 each, and it is recommended to use 12 to 18 posts for every 100 feet of fence, which is equivalent to a budget of $2 to $6 per foot of black chain link fence.
2. End posts form the frame of the gate and are essential at corners and where the terrain is inclined. The cost is about 25% – 30% higher than line posts.
3. Each additional post, either terminal or line post, requires digging and pouring cement, which increases labor costs.
Ⅲ. Calculated by wire gauge
The common residential fence uses 9- or 10-gauge wire and mesh with a 2 or 2 3/8-inch diamond.
This size provides enough strength and longevity for residential front and back yards.
As we know, the smaller the gauge, the thicker the wire, so if you want to install a stronger fence, it is recommended to use 6-gauge wire mesh, which is commonly used for industrial and commercial fences, and the corresponding cost will be doubled.
Wire Gauge |
Price range per linear foot (including materials and labor) |
6 | $15.50 to $37.80 |

$14.40 to $35.70 |
9 |
$13.50 to $33.10 |
11.5 |
$12.50 to $30.90 |
Ⅳ. Calculated by the size of the diamond mesh opening
The distance between the two wires of the diamond mesh is the opening size of the wire mesh. The smaller the opening, the stronger the fence and the higher the cost.
1. Residential fence: 2-inch or 2 ⅜-inch openings are commonly used, and the price per linear foot is $2.6-$11.7, depending on the height of the fence.
2. Pool fence, commercial facilities: Most of the diamond-shaped wire mesh is 1 ¼-inch, which can be supplied in 4-foot wide rolls, and the price per foot is $7.0 to $11.0.
3. Tennis courts, sports fields, industrial projects: Use wire mesh with an opening of 1 ¾, which is mainly available in rolls of 10 to 12 feet wide, and the price per linear foot is $16 to $20.
Ⅴ. Cost by PVC coating type
1. Grade 1 and 2A: For residential and commercial use, at $13-34 per foot, this fabric is the cheapest and easiest to find.
2. Grade 2B: For projects that require industrial quality, the price is twice as expensive as the above.
