Every site is different, which means every single railing we provide has to to be tailored to suit your individual premises. That’s our speciality. To help you get a better idea of what’s best for you, we’ve created this blog that details some of the options we offer.
Louvered fencing systems
Louvers or slats are a modern and visually appealing way to protect the exterior of your business. These screened fences can be customised almost endlessly in a variety of different finishes, such as painted or mirrored coating, and materials, including aluminium, steel, copper and timber.
Louvered fencing systems are visually imposing and secure, and can also be customised depending on how much visibility of your premise you wish to provide. Slats can be angled to allow more and less light to pass through them, allowing you to tailor the visibility passers-by have of your site.
Louvered fencing allows you to maintain a great sense of privacy without sacrificing aesthetics.
Security fencing
Many industries need to provide a highly effective physical deterrent that covers a large site. This is where our range of security fencing can help. We offer a wide range of security fencing that can both match the style of your existing gates or fencing while delivering a high level of protection.
Our standard security fencing can be customised with numerous decorative features and will fit seamlessly within your existing operation. We also offer higher security measures for areas that need a higher level of protection.
Our electric fencing is a highly effective visual deterrent. Featuring an imposing look and warning sign, the vast majority of potential intruders will be turned away just by looking at it. If entry is attempted, this fencing delivers a high voltage charge for no more than a thousandth of a second and will be repeated if the intruder does not move.
This fencing system allows you to identify possible intruders and alert control centres of a possible entry attempt.
To maintain a high level of security without the electric element, why not try our palisade or welded mesh fencing? These are some of the best-selling security fencing products available today. Palisade fencing can be customised in terms of height and finish. We’ve installed thousands of metres of this fencing and it is one of the most cost-effective security solutions available.
Decorative railings
For an added touch of style why not take a look at our decorative railings? Our railings can all be made bespoke, from standard designs to ornate railings created to work alongside your property. We can even top your existing walls with decorative railings to add an extra level of security alongside a stunning visual impact. These decorative railings were initially designed for listed buildings but are now rising in popularity for both residential and commercial properties.
We can design our decorative railings according to the plans of professional architects, or alternatively we can work from any designs you provide yourself.
