Palisade is the default for a reason: a tall, rigid steel barrier with pales that are very hard to climb, cut or get through. Across the South West — Somerset, Gloucestershire and the Bristol fringe — schools, yards, depots and sports facilities all need secure perimeter fencing, and a contract there justifies the travel.
Across the South West, BP Contracting takes on palisade fencing as commercial and perimeter contracts worth travelling for. Across the South West — Somerset, Gloucestershire and the Bristol fringe — schools, yards, depots and sports facilities all need secure perimeter fencing, and a contract there justifies the travel.
The South West — Somerset, Gloucestershire and the wider Bristol fringe — has schools, sports facilities, depots and commercial yards that all need proper secure perimeter fencing, MUGA systems and mesh. For a contract of any size the travel across the bridge stacks up, and this is exactly the kind of work BP is building its commercial side around.
Steel palisade fencing is built from vertical pales bolted to horizontal rails on concreted-in posts, typically galvanised and powder-coated, in heights up to around 3m. The pale profile (W-section or D-section) and the top detail (triple-point or rounded) are chosen for the level of deterrence the site needs — the higher-security spec uses anti-climb tops and tamper-resistant fixings.
It suits yards, depots, substations, industrial units and any commercial perimeter where the priority is a hard, visible deterrent that stands up to attack and weather. Concreted post foundations and the right rail and pale gauge are what separate a genuine security fence from a flimsy one, so the spec and the groundwork are set to the protection level required.
Ben builds palisade to the survey: the run, the height, the pale and top profile, the gates and any access control, all priced from an on-site survey rather than a guess. For larger commercial perimeters it is exactly the kind of contract worth travelling for.
Whether your palisade fencing job in the South West is a single boundary or a large run, the approach is the same: Ben surveys it, quotes a fixed itemised price, and builds it to a spec that lasts. Get in touch with the location and a rough idea of the job and he will tell you straight whether he can travel for it.
Commonly up to around 3m for high-security perimeters. The height, the pale gauge and the top detail (anti-climb triple-point tops, for example) are all set to the level of deterrence the site needs — a depot boundary and a substation are not the same spec.
They suit different priorities. Palisade gives a heavier, more aggressive visual deterrent and is very hard to climb. Welded mesh (such as 358 "prison mesh") resists cutting and gives less of a foothold, and offers better through-visibility for CCTV. Ben advises which fits the site and the threat on the survey.
Yes — matching palisade pedestrian and vehicle gates, single or double, hung on posts set for the weight, with the latching and any access control to suit. The gate is the most-used and most-attacked part of a perimeter, so it is built to the same security standard as the fence.
For a contract of any size, yes — Somerset, Gloucestershire and the Bristol fringe are within practical reach across the bridge, and schools, sports facilities, depots and yards there are exactly the commercial perimeter work BP takes on. Tell Ben the site and the spec and he will confirm and survey.
