Chain-link fences in Boulder
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.

Boulder sees strong chinook winds, spring hail and quick swings between warm days and freezing nights.
The City of Boulder caps fences at 7 feet, and fences up to 7 feet don't need a building permit unless the property is in a floodplain, wetland or historic district.
Fences can't block the sight triangle at corners or driveways, must sit inside your property line and at least 18 inches from a public sidewalk, and a fence right on the line needs a notarized agreement with your neighbour.
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.
