Chain Link Fence Installation

Chain link fence is made from galvanized steel wire woven into a diamond-shaped pattern and enhanced with zinc or vinyl coating for added durability and weather resistance. The result is a strong, cost-effective perimeter that maintains visibility while providing a clear and secure boundary. For Middletown, DE properties where monitoring the enclosed area matters, such as yards with children or pets, athletic fields, commercial lots, or properties where surveillance needs to remain unobstructed, chain link fence delivers security without creating blind spots.

Leading Edge Fence & Gates handles chain link fence installation from consultation through completion. Posts are set at the correct depth for local frost conditions, positioned at consistent intervals, and checked for plumb alignment before the fabric is attached. Concrete is poured at each post to set the fence structure properly. Custom chain link gates, including pedestrian walkways, double-swing gates, and rolling vehicle gates, are built and installed as part of the project. Selvage options include knuckled wire for safer environments like pools and schoolyards, or twisted selvage with small barbs for additional reinforcement on commercial properties. Height options range from shorter fences suited for residential yards and dog runs to taller fences for commercial security applications.

Highly Recommend this Fence Company for a quality work, me and my mom have been very skeptical on hiring a contractor to install a new fence on our backyard I personally take my time to see which company has a reputable business I checked on social media and also asked arround for recommendation there are some company around that we call at first but their pricing are ridiculously high and I came across with Leading Edge Tho there were some bad reviews I saw on their profile which makes me doubt them at first but they were the only company near our community at mt pleasant so we decided to work with them and it turns out they are pretty good. constantly communicating with us explaning all the details.

Same day repair of a powered gate opener is unheard of in this industry. Normally it takes 2-6 weeks. Leading Edge got our gate opener fixed, calibrated and up and running the same day. We’re beyond thankful for their great customer service and for going the extra mile. Highly recommend.

I can not recommend this fencing company enough! We forgot to leave a review after they installed our beautiful fence and this past weekend someone hit our fence. These guys were out here the first business day already replacing our fence where it was damaged. Always professional and super understanding with our situation and timely initial install.

After extensive research that included reading a plethora of reviews, analyzing every detail in countless photos, speaking to owners/reps of multiple companies, we decided Leading Edge Fence & Gates was going to be our pick for a few reasons.

Customer Relations - The team was very communicative and helpful throughout the entire process. Our HOA wasn't an easy feat with updated plans, photos, etc. but Leading Edge was very patient and ensured we had all the changes necessary. Wes and Randy were extremely easy to work with as we did a walk around and discussed options. Sure, people have slip ups because they're human, but would I take the time to leave a 1 star review? No, it's been over a month and I am now having time to write this raving review so for others to take the time to leave a cruddy one, ya'll need to find a hobby.

Work Ethics - These guys were out here for two days in the smoldering heat laboring away rarely taking breaks. Haley who works in the office was on top of it as well. She sent over the documents in a timely fashion and assisted with payment as I made it complicated for her via phone; yet, she continued to express her kind and patient manners.

Quality - So far so good. I'm a bit OCD so if there is a slight misalignment, you're darn right I will point it out immediately. That is exactly what I did and it was addressed promptly so I truly appreciate the attention to detail. Overall, they must have done a fantastic job because I've seen quite a few people outside my yard taking photos and I sure as heck know there isn't anything else worth taking pictures of outside my house.

Quality work was done as promised at a fair price. They stayed in contact the whole time, and the crew was a pleasure to work with!

Really appreciated the work that Wes and Randy did installing our privacy vinyl fence. Schedule-wise there were a couple unexpected delays, but eventually we were able to get everything squared away (thanks to Hayley for helping coordinate). Once they were out, they did the job quickly and efficiently, completing everything over a few days.

One of the cool things is they apparently are the only fence company out here that installs the privacy fences by driving in posts vs. digging holes and pouring concrete. So the installation was really clean and the final result is very solid and sturdy. Along the way, they were patient and happy to answer all the random questions I had, and were a real pleasure to work with. Thank you!

Fantastic experience with Leading Edge! I loved the technology available to help me determine if this was a project I could undertake. After reviewing the initial ballpark estimate on their website, I connected with the team. Multiple options were presented and Wesley helped my finetune what I was trying to accomplish with my fencing. Scheduling and communicating was fast and easy. The timeline for install was clearly relayed and the install went great. I am so pleased with the appearance and the quality of the materials used.

Wes and the team at Leading Edge Fence and Gates were extraordinary! Everyone was professional, kind, and helpful. The quote received was very reasonable/competitive and work was scheduled a few weeks after. The team was on time for the project and kept me updated throughout. They were efficient with the work, which was completed in a day and a half. The quality of the wood used for our split rail fence is top notch, and they did a great job cleaning up after completion of the project. 10/10 would recommend Wes and the team to anyone in the MOT area to have fencing/gates installed!

We asked and wise advise with experience was given regarding how far from the property line would be good footage. We received installation of our white vinyl L shaped fence in a timely and professional manner. From the secretary gathering basic information in early November 2022 to more detailed information by the Installer. The experience went smoothly, ending in early December 2022. When enquiry was made, Leading Edge Fence & Gates were recommended to my neighbors.

Booked leading edge to do a post and rail fence for my backyard. Everything was done in a timely, professional manner and they did quality work for a fair price. Would recommend.

Talk about quality work, these guys are the best. I was able to use their fence budget tool on their website and got a estimate right away. They came out and got rid of our 20 year old wood split rail and put in a beautiful black aluminum. The crew was very professional and hard working. The whole project was done in 2 days. That consist of taking down the old fence and installing the new. Looks so great that my cousin is getting a new fence from them also.

Great experience installing a wood split rail fence around a portion of my new property for a dog run. Wes helped us decide where to install the fence on the property, workable size, and answered all questions. He was even able to accommodate us moving up the proposed date to work better in line with our sooner then expected settlement date. His guys completed the fence in a matter of hours and ensured everything was completed as expected. We will use them in the future for our fencing needs.

We had 4 post and rail fence gates replaced. Along with a few other posts and rails. They did a excellent job, at what we considered to be a reasonable price. We would deft recommend them to our friends and neighbors!!

Wes and his team were a dream to work with. They were responsive and polite from start to finish. We had a bit of a hiccup with the town and an unresolved fencing permit - but Wes took care of it for us and we did not have to pay the fine! We really appreciate the exceptional customer service, which is hard to find lately. We are just in love with our fence - and so are our dogs!

My grandparents live in the Delaware area and needed to get a fence & gate installed for more privacy. They're not great with technology so they asked me to help find someone to come out. After a lengthy search, I came across Leading Edge. They had the best reviews I could find. Wesley and his team were awesome. They put together a very fair quote and were incredibly responsive to my grandparents. I'd absolutely send anyone their way that asked me for a recommendation!
