Chai Link Fence Tension

Chai Link Fence Tension

Chai Link Fence Tension

(OP)
Does anyone know how much tension is typically applied to chain link fence? I am working with 7' tall 9 Ga. 2" diamond chain link. It is stretched onto a 30' rolling gate. I could not find specific values in the Chain Link Fence Manufacturers Institute Product Manual.

RE: Chai Link Fence Tension

Have you tried calling the manufacturer?  

Oh, when you call them, don't let the agent yank your chain.

Sorry, I just couldn't resist...  bigsmile
