Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Match the bar to your fence height: a 4 ft. fabric needs this 46 in. bar, while taller fabric needs a correspondingly longer bar. Weave the bar through the last diamond of the fabric, pull the fabric taut with a stretcher or come-along before bolting the bands, and use at least three tension bands on a 4 ft. post. Choose black bars and bands together so the hardware disappears against black vinyl fence.
Wear gloves when handling chain link fabric and tension bars; cut wire ends and bar edges are sharp, and stretched fabric can whip when released.
Anchor your chain link fabric right with the Origin Point 4 ft. Black Tension Bar.
