Fence project to protect the lake providing disabled fishing at Tucking Mill

Posted on by Debbie Newman

A fence project to protect the lake providing disabled fishing at Tucking Mill Nr Bath. We used 6ft high wire mesh with gates to match and green 358 mesh around the sluice.

You can read about 358 mesh security fencing on our website here: “358 Security Mesh is incredibly strong and is the ideal solution for a wide variety of high-security perimeter and access control applications.  The mesh is made from 75mm x 12.5mm x 4mm galvanised material and polyester-coated welded mesh fabric. Whilst its main use is for Utility companies, prisons, secure units and high-security needs, it can also be used for schools as the look of 358 mesh is not as “hostile” as Palisade.  It is:….

Palisade Fencing Devizes

Posted on by Debbie Newman

Our project here was to supply and erect 300m of 2m high palisade fencing for Cross Engineering in Devizes.

Palisade fence panels are the most popular choice for locations today requiring a high level of security and vandal resistance.

Steel palisade fencing is usually the first choice for schools, utility installations and industrial sites. This is because of its high damage resistance and the fact that it is so difficult to climb.

358 Security Mesh fencing – as a rat deterrent?

Posted on by Debbie Newman

Typically, 358 Security Mesh is the ideal solution for a wide variety of high-security perimeter and access control applications…The mesh is made from 75mm x 12.5mm x 4mm galvanised material and polyester-coated welded mesh fabric and is

  • Climb resistant – its tiny spaces and welds at each intersection eliminate foot and finger holds and also stops objects being passed through
  • Very effective against the use of hand cutting tools
  • Comes in standard heights from 2m up to 6m

We had to replace 55m of 25-year old fencing along 3 sides of a garden, two of which had a footpath running along the outside.  Because of the footpath, fields on the other side and the fact the householder wanted to continue feeding the birds, our solution for endeavouring to keep any rats at bay was to break up some of our high security 358 prison mesh into 30 cms strips and fix to the gravel board  at the bottom of the fence into a channel we had dug. This then was then back-filled with the soil so the green mesh is scarcely visible.  So hopefully this will do the job.  The mesh is galvanized and green plastic coated.

“Delighted with the work from William and his team.  Really nice, hard-working, professional guys who talk things through with you, keeping you informed.  Great job done and I love the mesh idea. Just brilliant.  Thank you”.  Debbie Newman

The first picture below is how you would more normally see this mesh being used.  Some work we undertook in Blandford in the summer for Wessex Water.  Then a close up of how the mesh really looks, and finally how it is in situ fixed to the gravel board.

Security fencing with two access gates for Wessex Water in Blandford Forum Dorset

Posted on by Debbie Newman

Something a little different

We erected a 2.4 m high “358 prison steel” mesh security fencing with two access gates for Wessex Water in Blandford Forum Dorset.  This was ‘green blend’ in colour so as to blend in with the landscape. The fencing was to provide safe storage of their water purification equipment.

Security Fencing in Sturminster Marshall, Dorset

Posted on by Debbie Newman

We tendered for the supply and erection of 200m of security fencing in Sturminster Marshall, Dorset around a new Wessex Water Compound towards the end of last year and were awarded the contract.

The fence needed to be 2.1m high with several gates constructed of galvanised 358 “prison” mesh which was then powder coated in green to satisfy planners.

The work was started and completed in March 2017.

Security fencing with palisade mesh Sturminster Marshall, Dorset

Posted on by Debbie Newman

Along with the miles of stock and post and rail fence that Dave and his team erect for landowners, we are now getting more requests for security fencing… sadly a sign of the times.

In February we erected high prison grade 3m security fencing for Wessex Water for their new pumping station in Sturminster Marshall, Dorset which gives a new pipeline to Salisbury; also a 2.8 palisade mesh around the green tanks.  Security is naturally key here and this type of security fencing makes it near impossible to break into/climb up.  It took us a couple of weeks but a good job well done. See a few of the pics below.

This type of fencing is used where a higher level of security is needed from a standard agricultural fencing and can be especially popular with schools and industrial sites because of high damage resistance and the fact that it is so difficult to climb.

For details of the different types of fencing, we are able to erect, check out our web page here.
