4ft, 6ft or 8ft Chain Link: Picking Height for Kenyan Sites

Height changes security, post cost and how many rolls you buy. A plain guide for homes, schools and yards in Kenya.

Height is a security and budget choice

Imara Wires cuts chain link rolls from 4ft to 8ft. Taller mesh needs stronger posts and more steel, but it also stops casual crossing.

  • 4ft: garden splits, poultry and low internal lines
  • 5ft–6ft: most homes, estates and light commercial yards
  • 7ft–8ft: schools on a road, factories and sites that do not want a climbable top

You can still add a strand of barbed wire above a 6ft run instead of jumping straight to 8ft. See chain link options.
