Ok, DH says the 5' tall chain link is $89 per 50ft roll. 8040 sqf is 80x100.5
The perimeter would require about 360 ft. Subtract 10 ft for gate and ease of calculation and that's 350ft. That's seven rolls. $623 before taxes.
Brackets go between $3 and $5. I'm not sure how much the posts and other hardware would be, but I'm guessing $6000 is kind of insane. I can see having to rent a machine to dig the holes for the posts, but that's not that much work. Even at $600 an hour to have a guy come and drill through the lava that's still not $6000. Then there's a bag of concrete or two in each post hole...still way under $6000.
They must know a lot of things we don't.
