Shop our Hot Dip Galvanized Carriage Bolts to secure an assortment of fence fittings and products. Diameters include 5/16", 3/8", and 1/2". If using with chain link fence hardware, see the desired fitting to find the proper size for your fitting.
Our carriage bolts all feature a hot dipped galvanized finish that is very durable and designed to last for years. They are constructed of a softer steel so they are not suitable for high stress connections. They are however perfect for chain link fence applications, and wood projects like picnic tables, pergolas, decks, tree houses, and more!
Washers are not required for most chain link fittings but are commonly used when working with wood. These carriage bolts include a hex nut and we have matching Hot Dip Galvanized washers available for the 3/8" and 1/2" bolts (Sold Separately).

Shipped fast, questions answered qisckly.
I had searched several web sites for industrial fencing. Having no luck at all, I came upon Hoover Fence and explored the site for fencing and hardware, where in a short period of time, was able to locate and order every last piece of my list of items needed. I called the customer service number and talked to Scott about a couple questions that I had. He helped me complete my order and check out. By email, I was informed that same day that my order had been filled, and was shipping. Hoover will be my only choice for fencing needs in the future !
I had all kinds of annoying questions (how long does shipping take? Do you have these in stock to ship out immediately or are you actually drop-shipping from someone else and don't really know for sure? How about these things? Ooh, I like the green ones, do you have the green ones? Yeah, but why DON'T you have the skinny bolts in longer lengths? You're out of the green bolts? Wait, no, if I argue with you will you have the green bolts?) Yes, I was THAT customer, email after endless, nitpicky email, until the unbelievably patient agent sending prompt and polite replies finally asked permission to call me. She was wonderful, helped me figure out what I need to keep my newly inherited dogs, who have springs for legs, in my yard, submitted my order... and my payment wouldn't go through. I tried a different account -- nope. A different bank. Nope. Gave up on PayPal and started entering card numbers. Nope nope nope. Anyone reading this knows how mortifying it is to have a payment declined -- even when you know you have sufficient funds and it has to be a bank error, it's still embarrassing if it happens in front of anyone else. In this case it happened at least six times -- the Hoover Fence agent must have thought I was a complete deadbeat. Instead of going deadpan to let me work it out, which only makes things worse if you're a nervous babbler (which I clearly am), the agent kept up friendly conversation, made commiserating jokes, insisted the blame must lie with her own system to relieve my humiliation, and generally kept me from dumping the order and letting my dogs roam the neighborhood at will. She was exceptional. Yeah, yeah, you're reading reviews to see how people like the products, so here you go: best price anywhere, no sharp edges, paint didn't scratch no matter how often I dropped the clamps on concrete, my dogs have not escaped again, and Animal Control left an hour ago with the coyote that appeared out of nowhere and also couldn't escape the new height addition. I didn't even know we had coyotes. The hardware is perfect and I now know what happened to the cat, but the success of my project is not why I'm recommending Hoover Fence Co. in the longest review ever. Service ethic makes the difference in any transaction, but especially so for small orders from a small business -- you'll recall indifferent or negative service far longer than a slow delivery or inflated price. Amazon doesn't have most of this stuff (or it's from third-party sellers, i.e., small businesses), Hoover Fence's prices are amazing (for my interests anyway), they don't gouge on shipping, and they don't make you "check out" before telling you the shipping cost. Forcing me to exchange my personal information for a basic calculation and a flood of spam is the height of disrespect, and it's not logical to expect account security or post-sale service from a company that offers pre-sale disrespect. Hoover Fence doesn't play those games. The same agent stuck with me through multiple interactions, was kind and humorous, gave great advice without any kind of condescension (some of my questions deserved at least a sigh), made me feel like my dinky little order was a boon for the company; and charged less to ship a box full of metal than I paid for a decal -- and the metal arrived first. If you need fencing supplies, bookmark this place, or just stop here and save yourself the comparison-shopping time. This is a great business; I truly won't mind if the fence needs work now.
good products and fast service
Todd and his staff were very responsive and sensitive to my needs. Thank you.
