Moving Fences,[1] also lowercased,[2] are Chain-Links in the Super Mario series that move through the air. Their designs and means of movement vary by title, but the player character is always capable of clinging to them as they would stationary Chain-Links.
Red-rimmed Chain-Links in Super Mario 3D World also shift through the air in courses like Chain-Link Charge.
History
Super Mario Sunshine
- “You can move some gates with B. This may help, but... if you try to cling for too long, the gate'll fall off! You'll have to jump to safety at some point, so be careful!”
- —Pianta during "The Goopy Inferno"
Moving Fences debut in Super Mario Sunshine, here referred to simply as gates. They are panels of woven bamboo fastened to tracks underneath Pianta Village. Gates are stationary by default, enabling Mario to hop on and cling them. Pressing 
causes the clung gate to slide along the track. When they reach the end of the track they are on, they slightly sway for a few moments before dropping. If Mario did not let go at this point, he falls into the pit bellow and loses a life.
New Super Mario Bros. 2
In New Super Mario Bros. 2, Moving Fences are rectangular metal chain-link fences with orange-colored rims that slide along tracks. One moves back and forth automatically, but most activate whenever the player character grabs on to them. Like Super Mario Sunshine, Moving Fences drop at the ends of their tracks. They alter their elevation on the track whenever the player hits them. Moving Fences appear only in the lava-filled Template:World-link, where they are the primary means of navigating the course.
New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe
Moving Fences appear only in Larry's Torpedo Castle in New Super Mario Bros. U and its enhanced Nintendo Switch port. Unlike prior games, these Moving Fences have red outer barriers similar to the fences from Super Mario World and are visually indistinguishable from the sole normal fence in New Super Mario Bros. U. Moving Fences are of various widths and heights, and are necessary to avoid nearby Burners and access the second Star Coin of the course.
