Our Mobile Welding Services in Edmonton
We specialize in chain link fence welding repair, but our welding capabilities extend well beyond fencing. Our team handles a wide range of on-site steel work across Edmonton and the surrounding area.
Fence Gate Welding & Repair
A sagging or broken gate compromises both security and curb appeal. We repair and reinforce gate frames on-site, restoring smooth function without a full replacement.
Broken Hinge Repair
Worn or snapped hinges are one of the most common fence issues we see. Our mobile welders can weld and reinforce hinges quickly, often in a single visit.
Rusted Post Repair
Alberta winters take a toll on steel posts. If corrosion has weakened a post's base, we can weld reinforcements or replace damaged sections without disturbing the rest of your fence line.

For contractors and businesses, our industrial mobile welding services cover structural repairs, temporary fencing reinforcement, and steel fabrication needs directly at your job site, keeping your project on schedule.
Emergency Mobile Welding When You Need It Most
Fence damage doesn't wait for business hours. Whether it's storm damage, a security breach, or unexpected wear, our emergency mobile welding service ensures your property stays secure without unnecessary delays. We prioritize fast response times so you're never left exposed.

Chain Link Dog Runs & Kennels: The Complete Edmonton Pet Owner's Guide
/Keeping a dog safe, active, and contained doesn't have to mean sacrificing your entire yard. A chain link dog run or kennel gives your pet a dedicated, secure space to move around freely — without the risk of escaping, digging under a fence, or getting into areas they shouldn't. For Edmonton pet owners dealing with unpredictable weather and active breeds, chain link remains one of the most practical, durable, and affordable enclosure options on the market.

What Is a Chain Link Dog Run or Kennel?
A chain link dog run is a fenced enclosure — typically rectangular — built specifically to give a dog a safe outdoor space separate from the rest of the yard. Kennels are similar but often more compact, sometimes covered, and used for multiple dogs, boarding facilities, or breeders. Both rely on galvanized or vinyl-coated chain link panels, which are durable, chew-resistant, and easy to clean.
Why Chain Link Works Best for Dog Runs & Kennels
Durability Chain link stands up to scratching, digging, and jumping far better than wood or plastic alternatives. Galvanized steel resists rust, and vinyl-coated options add protection against Alberta's freeze-thaw cycles and temperature swings.
Visibility & airflow Unlike solid privacy fencing, chain link lets your dog see and be seen — reducing anxiety in some dogs while improving airflow during warmer months.
Cost-effectiveness Compared to wood, vinyl, or custom welded enclosures, chain link remains one of the most budget-friendly options for a secure, long-lasting run.
Low maintenance No painting, staining, or sealing. Occasional cleaning and a check for loose fittings is typically all that's needed.
Customizable sizing Runs can be built to fit almost any space — from a small backyard corner to a multi-dog commercial kennel setup.
Sizing & Design Guidelines
Ground protection: Dogs dig. A bottom rail, buried mesh apron, or concrete footing along the base helps prevent tunneling underneath.
Gate placement: Position gates for easy access during feeding and cleaning, ideally with a self-latching mechanism.
Shade and shelter: Add a covered section, dog house, or shade sail — important for both Alberta summers and winters.
Commercial Applications: Kennels for Boarding & Breeding
Beyond residential backyards, chain link kennel systems are widely used by:
Boarding facilities needing multiple secure, easy-to-clean enclosures
Breeders requiring separated runs for different dogs or litters
Veterinary clinics for temporary animal housing
Municipal and rescue shelters for cost-effective, durable containment
Modular, portable kennel panels are also available for facilities that need flexibility to reconfigure or expand enclosures over time.
DIY vs. Professional Installation
While smaller runs can be a DIY project, professional installation ensures:
Properly set, frost-resistant posts — critical in Alberta's freeze-thaw climate
Correctly tensioned mesh that won't sag or loosen over time
Secure gate alignment and latching hardware
Compliance with local bylaws around fence height and animal containment
For larger kennel operations, professional installation also ensures consistent quality across every enclosure.
Maintenance Tips to Extend the Life of Your Dog Run
Inspect posts and tension wires seasonally, especially after winter
Check for rust or coating damage on galvanized sections
Keep gate hinges and latches lubricated
Clear snow buildup against the base to prevent frost heave damage
Trim vegetation growing into the mesh
Final Thoughts
A well-built chain link dog run or kennel is one of the most reliable ways to give your dog a safe, dedicated space — whether it's a small backyard enclosure or a full commercial kennel setup. With the right sizing, height, and ground protection, chain link offers durability and value that's hard to match, especially in Alberta's climate.
