Where Construction Sites Use Temporary Fencing

Construction projects require temporary fencing to:

  • Secure boundaries during early works and excavation
  • Control entry points for workers, vehicles, or visitors
  • Separate work zones from footpaths or public roads
  • Prevent theft or tampering of tools and materials
  • Maintain compliance with safety obligations

We supply fencing for residential, commercial, and civil builds, from initial clearing through to handover.

Temporary Fencing Components and Setup

Our construction fencing systems include:

Welded mesh fence panels at 1.8 metres high

Concrete or heavy-duty stabilising feet

Steel clamps and safety caps

Optional bracing for wind and uneven surfaces

Access gates for vehicles or equipment

Shade cloth or mesh screening (on request)

All components are maintained to site-ready condition and meet required standards for strength and visibility.

Site Safety and Public Protection

Fencing protects workers, contractors, and the public by:

  • Preventing unauthorised access
  • Reducing liability on open job sites
  • Creating visual boundaries for machinery or footpaths
  • Supporting signage for danger or entry restriction
  • Helping meet WHS and local council requirements

We build fencing layouts that align with project staging and temporary access routes.

Installation Process and Site Management

We coordinate fencing install based on construction schedules:

Measure and mark fence line

Deliver and set up fence panels

Brace or stabilise where needed

Fit gates and access points

Return for reconfiguration or removal

Fences can be relocated as the build progresses. We also provide temporary adjustments for concrete pours, deliveries, or crane access.

Optional Site Add-ons

Add-ons help with site management and visibility:

  • Shade mesh for privacy and dust reduction
  • Bracing arms for high-wind areas
  • Signage boards or danger notices
  • Lockable access panels or swinging gates
  • Ground pegs for uneven or soft surfaces

These extras improve safety in high-traffic areas or near public zones.
