Construction Sites Temporary Fencing in Ensuring Safety, Security, and Organization

Construction Site Temporary Fencing: Post Profiles (Square, Rectangular, Round)

Temporary Fencing used on Construction Sites

Typical Specifications

• Height: Most commonly 6 feet (1.8 meters)

• Width: Usually 10 feet (3 meters) or 12 feet (3.6 meters)

• Mesh Size: Typically 2 inches x 4 inches (50mm x 100mm)

• Frame Tubing: Usually 1 3/8 inch (35mm) or 1 5/8 inch (40mm) diameter steel tubing  

Why this type of fencing is popular

• Welded Wire Mesh: The fencing material is made of steel wires welded together to form a grid. This is generally stronger and more rigid than traditional chain link for temporary applications.  

• Galvanized Finish: The silver/grey color indicates a galvanized finish, which protects the steel from rust and corrosion.

• Frame: The mesh is welded to a steel frame for added strength and stability.

• Feet/Bases: These are typically concrete blocks, plastic feet (like the yellow ones in the picture), or metal stands that provide support and keep the fence upright.

• Bracing: The angled support in the picture provides extra stability, especially for longer runs of fencing or in windy conditions.

• Easy to install and dismantle: Panels are connected with simple clamps or hooks.

• Portable: Can be easily moved and reconfigured as needed.

• Durable: Galvanized finish provides good weather resistance.

• Cost-effective: A relatively inexpensive way to secure a construction site.
