Learn about Green Link — the baseboard system for your chain-link fence that saves your weed eater as you edge your lawn and make lawn care easy.

What Problem Does Green Link Solve?

A common problem with chain-link and wire mesh fences is that it is extremely difficult to mow or trim the grass, weeds, and vegetation below and closely adjacent to the bottom of the fence, and the line of an edger often gets wound around the wires of the fence or broken when striking the fence. 

Another common problem is that grass, weeds, and vegetation tend to grow below the bottom of the fence and between the open spaces between the wire members adjacent to the bottom of the fence.

Problem Solved!

How is Green Link Different?

The present invention is distinguished over prior inventions in general, and these patents in particular by a trimmer line shield for chain-link fences for preventing a mower or line of an edger from striking the fence when mowing or edging adjacent to it.

The trimmer line shield is driven into the ground to extend between vertical fence posts and the chain-link fence is installed between the posts such that its bottom end engages the flat top portion of the shield to prevent the line of grass trimmer from striking and becoming entangled in the open spaces adjacent to the bottom portion of the chain-link fence.

The trimmer shield also maintains the bottom of the fence a distance above the ground surface and inhibits the undesirable growth of vegetation into the open spaces between the wire members along the bottom of the fence. [US Patent 12,098,566 B1]
