1.What is a temporary fence?
A temporary fence is a portable, freestanding barrier system used for short-term perimeter security, crowd control, and site safety. It typically consists of welded wire mesh panels attached to steel frames with base feet, allowing quick installation and relocation without ground fixing.
2.What materials and finishes are available?
Temporary fences are commonly made from galvanized steel wire mesh welded to a steel tube frame. Standard finishes include galvanized (silver) for corrosion resistance and powder coating (yellow, orange, green, or black) for high visibility and additional protection. Yellow is most common for construction sites.
3.What panel sizes and mesh options are available?
Standard panel heights are 1.0m, 1.2m, 1.5m, 1.8m, and 2.0m. Panel width is typically 2.5m. Mesh openings range from 25x25mm to 75x75mm. Wire diameters range from 2.0mm to 4.0mm. Base feet are typically 0.8m to 1.0m wide for stability.
4.How are temporary fence panels connected and installed?
Panels are connected using couplers or hooks that join adjacent panels together. The freestanding design with base feet requires no ground drilling or concrete footings. Panels can be set up and taken down by hand without special tools. For uneven ground, adjustable feet or sandbags can provide additional stability.
5.What accessories are available for temporary fencing?
Common accessories include couplers (for connecting panels), base plates or feet, barbed wire arms (for security tops), privacy screens (windbreak or visual screening fabric), gate panels for access, and post caps. Some systems include rubber or plastic feet to prevent floor damage on indoor surfaces.
6.What applications is temporary fence used for?
Construction site perimeters, public events and festivals, crowd control at concerts and sports events, emergency response zones, pedestrian walkways, temporary parking lots, and warehouse or industrial area segregation. It is also used for short-term animal containment and pool safety during renovations.
