Galvanized Standard

The proven perimeter
fence for Winnipeg homes.

Galvanized chain link is the most cost-effective way to fence a residential property in Winnipeg. The zinc-coated steel mesh resists rust and corrosion through decades of Manitoba winters, spring floods, and summer heat. For homeowners who need a reliable boundary fence without breaking the budget, galvanized chain link delivers unmatched value per linear foot — see our full fence cost breakdown.

We install every chain link fence on driven metal posts — no concrete footings and no digging. Our post-driving method anchors each post below the frost line in minutes, giving you a fence that stays straight and plumb even in Winnipeg's notoriously expansive gumbo clay soil. While concrete-set posts heave and lean after a few freeze-thaw cycles, driven posts grip the undisturbed earth and hold firm year after year.

  • Hot-dipped galvanized steel mesh (11.5 gauge residential)
  • Available in 4 ft, 5 ft, and 6 ft heights
  • Driven posts — no concrete, no digging, no frost heave
  • Ideal for property lines, yards, and pet containment
  • Lowest cost per foot of any fence type in Winnipeg

Black Vinyl-Coated

All the strength.
A sharper look.

Black vinyl-coated chain link is the most popular upgrade we install on Winnipeg residential properties. The PVC coating bonds to the galvanized steel wire, adding an extra layer of corrosion protection while giving the fence a sleek, modern appearance that virtually disappears into your landscaping. Against green grass, hedges, or garden beds, a black chain link fence blends in rather than standing out.

The vinyl coating also means a smoother surface — no sharp galvanized edges to snag clothing or scratch children and pets. It is the same durable chain link mesh underneath, just wrapped in a protective shell that looks better and lasts even longer. Black vinyl-coated chain link typically adds only a small premium over standard galvanized, making it one of the best value upgrades in residential fencing.

  • PVC-bonded coating over galvanized steel core
  • Black finish blends naturally with landscaping
  • Smoother surface — safer for kids and pets
  • Enhanced corrosion resistance beyond standard galvanized
  • Black posts, rails, and fittings to match

Privacy Inserts & Slats

Turn chain link
into a privacy fence.

Want the affordability of chain link with the privacy of a solid fence? Privacy slats and inserts weave through the chain link mesh to block sightlines, reduce wind, and create a secluded backyard space. Available in a range of colours to match your property, privacy slats transform a standard chain link fence into a functional privacy barrier at a fraction of the cost of wood or vinyl panels.

We offer both vertical slats and hedge-style inserts that provide varying degrees of privacy, from about 70% screening up to near-total coverage. This is an especially popular option for Winnipeg homeowners who already have chain link fencing and want to add privacy without tearing out and replacing the entire fence. We can retrofit slats into existing chain link or include them in a new installation.

  • Vertical slats in multiple colours (black, green, grey, brown)
  • Hedge-style inserts for a natural look
  • 70% to 95% privacy coverage options
  • Can be retrofitted into existing chain link fences
  • Wind reduction and noise dampening benefits

Gates & Accessories

Complete your fence
with the right gate.

Every chain link fence needs at least one gate, and we build them to match your fence exactly — same gauge, same coating, same height. We install single walk gates for pedestrian access, double drive gates for vehicles and equipment, and everything in between. All gates are built with steel frames, heavy-duty hinges, and reliable latches that operate smoothly even after years of Winnipeg weather.

Beyond gates, we offer a full range of chain link accessories to customize your fence for your specific needs. Add a tension wire along the bottom to prevent pets from pushing underneath. Include a top rail or bottom rail for extra rigidity. We can also install your chain link fence on slopes and uneven terrain — common in many Winnipeg neighbourhoods — using a racking or step-down method to follow the grade of your yard.

  • Single walk gates (3 ft and 4 ft widths standard)
  • Double drive gates for driveways and wide access
  • Heavy-duty hinges and fork latches
  • Bottom tension wire for pet containment
  • Slope and terrain installation available
  • Gate automation upgrades available
