The said clips or retainers being capable of providing a tight connection to maintain the interface between the chain link fabric and the framework member to which attached one tension on the chain link fabric to keep it taut has been established. Several types of clips are provided that may be used. The system is useable on a variety of framework member cross-sectional designs.
