Planned Perimeter Fencing for Active Commercial Sites
At Gleave Construction, commercial chain link system is planned as part of the site layout. Our work supports daily access, clear boundaries, and long-term use.
We are a family-owned contractor serving Fort Wayne and Northeast Indiana since 1970. We install commercial chain link fencing for municipalities, HOAs, schools, utilities, and business properties across the region.
Commercial chain link fencing is used for clear function and dependable performance:
- Clear site definition
Open mesh fencing marks boundaries while keeping full visibility across the property. - Built for local conditions
Proper post depth, concrete footings, and coated materials are crucial for performance. They support structures during freeze–thaw cycles, handle wind, and endure seasonal exposure. - Efficient for large properties
Chain link covers long runs. It adapts to uneven layouts. It fits both vehicle and pedestrian access points. - Stable over time
When installed right, the system keeps alignment, gate function, and structural integrity. It needs little maintenance.

What Commercial and Municipal Clients Say
Gleave Construction did an amazing job putting in our fence around our pool in our backyard. They were efficient and answered all questions in a very timely manner. The product is of very high quality and their installation was very well done as the fence is very sturdy. We customized our fence with a product that looks like stone pillars and this has held up perfectly in all 4 seasons of NW Ohio. We HIGHLY recommend Gleave Construction for your fencing needs.
