Chain-Link & Metal
The chain-link & metal cluster: chain-link fence cost, a chain-link material calculator (line/terminal posts, top rail, mesh, tension bars & ties), aluminum fence cost, wrought-iron / steel fence cost, and a metal fence panel count. Line-post spacing 10 ft and top-rail sticks 10.5 ft are labeled typicals.
Planning estimate: this is a planning estimate from the numbers you enter — not a bid or a contract. Fence pricing depends on material grade, height, terrain, post setting, gates, tear-out and local labor. Get itemized written quotes from licensed, insured fencing contractors before you commit.
Confirm panel/picket dimensions and bag yield against your product and order a little extra (~10%) for waste, corners, terrain and uneven runs. Panel sizes, picket widths, gaps and bag yields vary by product and brand.
