How to Choose the Right Temporary Fencing for Your Construction Project

If you have a building site or construction project that needs short-to-medium term security, temporary fencing is a great option. It’s erected quickly, keeps your site safe for as long as needed, and is removed swiftly when it’s no longer needed. But not all temporary fencing is created equal, so it’s important to know what to look for when choosing the right temporary fencing for your site in Chippenham. In this guide, we’ll show you how to make the right choice for your project.

1. Heavy bases

Permanent fencing is secured in place with posts or heavy-duty foundations laid in the ground. On the other hand, temporary fencing needs less permanent basing so it can be removed at some point.

When looking for temporary fencing, make sure that it comes with a very heavy base. This makes it harder for intruders to move the panels to break in and will also make your fencing resistant to harsh weather conditions.

2. Sturdy material

You’ve probably seen lightweight temporary fencing used in towns and cities to create barriers. However, this isn’t high-quality enough for project sites that need protection.

Instead, look for temporary fencing made from sturdy materials such as timber and metal. These rugged materials are much harder to compromise and are more durable if you’re going to need the temporary fencing for an extended period of time.

3. Reliable structure

If you’re looking for added security for your site, mesh security fencing is usually a good option. This is a more reliable structure that can dissipate force from impact, making it harder for criminals to break them down.

Mesh is also difficult and time-consuming to cut, so criminals are usually put off by the time it will take to break in.

Timber is another reliable structure that is solid and stands up to vandalism. It’s also incredibly hard to break down and will keep both your property and the public safe.

4. Branding

If your temporary fencing is going up around a construction site, use it as an opportunity to promote your business or brand. Our temporary fencing can be decorated with your brand colours to make it look more professional and act as a billboard while it’s in place.

This is much more useful than standard, plain fencing and gives extra value for your money.
