Frequently Asked Questions
Where should chain link post and rail padding be installed on a field?
Most facilities install this padding in high-contact areas like outfield fences, foul lines, and bullpen zones. These are the spots where athletes are most likely to run into fence structures during play.
How do I know if my facility needs both post and rail padding?
If your fence has both exposed vertical posts and a top rail within reach of athletes, covering both provides more complete protection. Many facilities choose a full system to eliminate gaps along the fence line.
Does chain link padding affect visibility for spectators?
No, the chain link post and rail padding is designed to maintain visibility through the fence while still protecting key impact points. This is important for fields where spectators watch from outside the fence line.
