Strong, Secure, and Built to Last in the Pacific Northwest

Putting up a fence is great for a lot of reasons. But your gate matters just as much as the fence itself. Whether you’re looking to secure your yard, protect a commercial lot, or simply give your dog a safe place to run, a well-built chain link fence gate is a smart, reliable choice.

At Pacific Fence & Wire, we’ve been installing chain link fence gates for over 100 years. We know what works in Oregon’s wet winters, dry summers, and everything in between. From residential driveways to high-security facilities, we help you choose the right gate for your needs, and we build it to last.

Types of Chain Link Gates

Different Styles for Different Needs

There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to chain link fence gates. That’s why we offer several gate styles to match your property and how you use it. The most common option is the swing gate, which opens like a door and works great for homes and small businesses. If space is tight or the gate needs to stay off the ground, a sliding gate might be a better fit.

For wide entrances, especially in industrial areas, cantilever gates are a popular choice. These slide open smoothly without needing a track on the ground, which helps in areas with gravel, snow, or uneven surfaces. Whatever the layout, we’ll help you find a gate style that works and make sure it’s built right.

Add-Ons That Make a Difference

Customize Your Gate for More Security or Convenience

Chain link gates are customizable, and small upgrades can make a big impact. Need more security? Barbed wire or razor ribbon can be added to the top of the gate for extra protection. Want easier access control? We can install latches, locks, or electronic openers depending on how you need it to function.

We also offer privacy slats for a little extra coverage and vinyl coating to improve appearance and resist corrosion. Our team is happy to walk you through your options and help you choose the best setup for your property, whether you’re looking to keep something in or keep something out.

Where Chain Fence Gates Work Best

From Backyards to Business Lots

You’ll find chain link gates just about everywhere, and for good reason—they’re tough, affordable, and easy to maintain. For homeowners, a swing gate is perfect for enclosing backyards, creating dog runs, or securing side yards. They’re also great for driveways and garden entrances.

In commercial and industrial settings, sliding and cantilever gates are often used to control vehicle access or protect storage areas. Schools, utility companies, apartment buildings, and even sports fields rely on chain link gates for a mix of security, visibility, and durability. Whatever the setting, we’ve got the tools and experience to get it done.

Quality You Can Count On

Built for Oregon’s Weather and Your Peace of Mind

Chain link gates are only as good as their installation. At Pacific Fence & Wire, we’ve been doing this since 1921, and we know what it takes to build a gate that stands up to the Pacific Northwest’s elements. Rain, wind, ice, sun—we plan for it all and use materials that hold up year after year.

We’re licensed, bonded, and insured, and every gate we install comes with a one-year warranty. We work fast, we’re easy to talk to, and we always stand behind our work. It’s why homeowners, businesses, and general contractors come back to us again and again.

Chain Link Gates FAQs

How wide can a chain link fence gate be?

Gate widths can range from 3 feet for walk-through access to 30 feet or more for driveways and vehicle access. We’ll customize the width based on your specific needs.

What type of gate is best for a driveway?

Swing gates are common for driveways, but if you don’t have space for one to open outward or inward, a sliding or cantilever gate may be better.

Can I add a lock or keypad to my chain link fence gate?

Yes. We can add standard locks, keyed latches, or even electronic openers and keypads depending on your level of security and ease of access.

Do you install gates for dog runs or kennels?

Absolutely. We install small, secure gates perfect for dog runs, backyard kennels, or pet-safe enclosures that still allow easy access.

Will my gate rust or sag over time?

Not if it’s installed correctly. We use galvanized steel and optional vinyl coatings to resist rust, and we ensure every gate is properly supported to prevent sagging.
