"For over 100 years, we've proven that we are the fencing specialists." As a family owned business, Hohulin has worked in the fencing industry for over 100 years. Founded in 1888 by Gottlieb Hohulin, we were the first company to manufacture chain link fencing in the country. On April 27, 1897, Hohulin filled their first fence order for 396 feet of 48" high fence with one gate. With an invoice for $26.90, the Hohulin Brothers Fence Company was in business.
