Fencing for mines and heavy industry
A mine site or a power station is one of the most controlled workplaces there is. Access is gated, inductions are mandatory, and every contractor on site is judged first on safety and second on the work. Fencing a site like that is as much about how the crew operates as it is about the fence they leave behind.
We have been doing this kind of work for a long time. Our fencing has gone up on mines, power stations, railway lines, construction sites, schools and military bases across the region. Heavy industrial sites are familiar ground for our crews, not a stretch.
Why heavy industry uses us
- Ticketed, inducted crews. Our staff are trained and ticketed for the tougher environments, including rail corridors, and we come to site inductions ready to work to your rules.
- Safety-first on the tools. On an operating site the crew has to be able to answer safety questions and mean it. That is a reputation we have earned, not a line on a flyer (see the NCIG feedback below).
- Site-specific SWMS. Safe Work Method Statements are prepared for the actual task and kept current for the site, alongside OH and S processes matched to where the work is happening.
- We fabricate our own steel. Posts, gates, security panels and custom steelwork come out of our Toronto workshop, so a remote or high-security job is not stalled waiting on a supplier.
- Australian Standards compliance. The fence is built to standard, so it passes inspection and does its job for years in a harsh environment.
What we build on industrial sites
- Boundary and security chainwire long runs of tall mesh on steel posts, the workhorse of site security.
- Steel security fencing palisade and garrison panels where a boundary needs to be climb-proof and cut-resistant.
- Gates and access control fencing sliding and swinging security gates, built and hung to suit the traffic and the security level.
- Cages, enclosures and infrastructure protection fabricated steel around plant, substations and hazardous areas.
Trusted on site
Operating happily on a heavy industrial site comes down to how the crew conducts itself. Feedback passed on from a job at NCIG put it plainly:
"Would just like to pass on feedback from NCIG. They were extremely happy with the way your guys operated and said they were spot on when asked safety questions."

That is the standard we hold on every industrial job: work safely, answer honestly, and leave a fence the site is happy with.
Working with us
We have fenced across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Hunter since 2004, with a long history on mines, power stations and other heavy industrial sites. We are set up for the compliance those projects expect, from inductions and SWMS through to standards-compliant construction.
Send us the site, the boundary length and height, and your induction and safety requirements, and we will quote it.
