Rio Grande Fence Company Completes Temporary 20’ ChainlinkBaseball Backstop at Veterans Park in Lexington, KY

At Rio Grande Fence Company, we take pride in delivering high-quality fencing solutions that meet the unique needs of our clients across Kentucky. Our latest project, a temporary 20’ tall chainlink baseball backstop at Veterans Park in Lexington, Kentucky, showcases our commitment to excellence, safety, and community collaboration. This installation, designed to ensure player and spectator safety until the official netting system is approved, highlights why we remain Kentucky’s trusted fencing contractor since 1960.

Project Overview: Veterans Park Baseball Backstop

Veterans Park, a beloved recreational hub in Lexington, is home to vibrant baseball games that bring families and sports enthusiasts together. When the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government (LFUCG) Division of Parks & Recreation needed a temporary fencing solution to keep games running safely, they turned to Rio Grande Fence Company. Our team installed a 20’ tall chainlink baseball backstop to serve as a sturdy and reliable barrier, protecting spectators from foul balls while maintaining clear visibility for an unobstructed game experience.

The chainlink fence, constructed with durable 9-gauge galvanized wire, was chosen for its strength and versatility. Designed as a temporary solution, this backstop ensures safety without compromising the park’s functionality, allowing games to continue seamlessly until the permanent netting system is finalized. Our team worked diligently to complete the installation efficiently, minimizing disruption to the park’s busy schedule.

Benefits of a Chainlink Baseball Backstop

Chainlink fencing is a top choice for athletic facilities like Veterans Park, and for good reason. Here are some key benefits that make it ideal for baseball backstops:

• Durability: Made from galvanized steel, chainlink fences withstand harsh weather conditions, including Kentucky’s humid summers and chilly winters. This ensures long-lasting performance, even for temporary installations.
• Safety: The 20’ height of this backstop provides robust protection, stopping errant balls from reaching spectators or nearby areas, reducing the risk of injury.
• Visibility: Unlike solid barriers, chainlink’s open mesh design allows fans to enjoy an unobstructed view of the game, enhancing the spectator experience.
• Cost-Effectiveness: Chainlink is an affordable option, offering high value for community projects like Veterans Park, where budgets must balance quality and practicality.
• Versatility: Easy to install and remove, chainlink is perfect for temporary solutions, making it a go-to choice while awaiting permanent designs like netting systems.

These advantages make chainlink fencing a practical and reliable option for sports facilities, construction sites, and residential properties alike, ensuring safety and functionality without breaking the bank.
