| Fence | Height | Installed price |
|---|---|---|
| Chain link, 4 ft, galvanized | 4 ft | $21 per ft |
| Chain link, 6 ft, galvanized | 6 ft | $27 per ft |
Every post goes in concrete, line posts included. Many budget installers skip that on line posts, and it is what keeps chain link straight.
Privacy slats can go in later if you want screening without replacing the fence.
Questions
Galvanized or black vinyl-coated?
Galvanized is the value option. Black vinyl-coated adds a few dollars a foot and looks far less industrial, so it is the pick for a front or side yard people see.
Is 4 ft enough for a dog?
For most dogs, yes. Big jumpers and climbers want 6 ft. The quote tool prices both so you can compare.
