Fencing Types We Use in Schools
Chainwire Fencing
Cost-effective and incredibly long-lasting — it's common to find chainwire fences well over 30 years old. Ideal for courts and perimeters.
Steel Security Fencing
Palisade and Hercules steel fencing provides an excellent barrier. Can't be cut, not easily damaged, and spear-top pickets make it difficult to climb.
Aluminium, Colorbond & Timber
Specialists in aluminium, Colorbond, and timber fencing. These materials can enhance visual design and overall aesthetic while remaining highly functional.
