Abstract: Chain link fencing having a plurality of elongate picket members comprising elongate slats that lie in diagonal valleys of the chain link fencing. Elongate, U-shaped channels lie along the respective sides of each elongate slat. The channels fit over and cover a row or ridge of knuckles formed along the side of each of the respective valleys of the chain link fencing. The pickets cover essentially the entire side of the chain link fence and leave no spaces or openings between pickets. The system thus provides complete privacy. Engagement members are associated with the channels to secure the channel members and thus the pickets to respective rows or ridges of knuckles on the chain link fencing.

Abstract: Wire fencing having a plurality of elongate picket members that lie adjacent to a side face of the chain link fencing so as to be substantially superposed over the fencing. Engagement members extend from the back faces of the picket members to project into the fencing and engage respective mounting members positioned within the fencing or on the opposite side face of the fencing. The interengagement of the engagement members and the mounting members holds the picket members firmly in place on the side of the fencing.

Abstract: In a chain link fence having a plurality of elongate slats woven through the links of the chain link fabric, an improved system for retaining and locking the slats in the chain link fabric comprises (1) an elongate rail woven between consecutive links of the chain link fence such that the rail lies adjacent to mutually respective, aligned, first ends of the elongate slats, and (2) engagement members formed integrally with the mutually respective first ends of the elongate slats, with the engagement members including interlocking means which make interlocking engagement with the elongate rail when the respective first end of the elongate slat is abutted against the elongate rail.

The barbs make interlocking engagement with the elongate rail when the respective first end of the elongate slat is abutted against the elongate rail.

Abstract: In a chain link fence having a plurality of elongate slats woven through the links of the chain link fabric, an improved system for locking and retaining the slats in the chain link fabric comprises an elongate clip member which is received in locking interengagement in a receptacle or opening in the respective slat. The clip member can be of the type which simply extends from the sides of the slat to form an obstruction with the links in the fence such that the slats cannot be removed from the fence. Alternatively, the clip members can be adapted to extend from the slat to a bottom rail so as to lock the slats to the bottom rail such that the slats cannot be removed from the fence.

Abstract: A means for retaining slats woven flatwise through the links of a chain link fence is provided with a receptacle formed in each of the slats and a generally U-shaped clip member having legs engaging respective receptacles in adjacent slats.
