Chain-link fences in Boise
Chain-link is the most affordable way to fence a large area, and it's tough enough for dogs, kids and property lines. Coloured, vinyl-coated chain-link looks a lot better than bare galvanised.

Boise gets hot, dry summers and cold winters with plenty of nights that freeze and thaw again by afternoon.
Boise limits fence height by where the fence sits. In general, fences inside the front-yard setback are kept low (36 inches solid, or 48 inches if it's see-through), and up to 6 feet is allowed along the side and rear property lines. Corner lots also have a clear-vision area near the street with a lower limit.
Rules and permit thresholds change, so confirm with City of Boise Planning and Development Services, or your HOA, before you build. A local fence contractor will know the current rules.
Common questions
Can I add privacy to chain-link?
Yes, with slats woven through the mesh or privacy screening.
How long does it last?
Twenty years or more for galvanised or coated chain-link.
Do I need to know exactly where my property line is?
It helps a lot. If you're not sure, a survey or your plat map avoids building on a neighbour's land. Many contractors can advise on this.
