When you need any type of work carrying out on your commercial property, be it fencing or plumbing, you need to be sure you are hiring the right company for the job. Any client will want reassurance that the people they are employing for the job are trustworthy, reliable and that the work will be completed to the highest quality.

Palisade Commercial Fencing from Warefence

Thursday, August 16th, 2012

At a time when we are experiencing a financial crisis, we’re all trying to make cutbacks and save money until the economy picks up again. Unfortunately, it seems that during such times, a small portion of society turns to crime in efforts to make money at the expense of others, and commercial properties are popular targets. Schools and offices are often targeted as thieves know that they will find an abundance of computers and technology that is easy to sell on at a high price. Here at Warefence the security of your property is our priority and our high security commercial fencing is the ideal solution.

The benefits of security fencing are obvious; fencing will not only significantly slow down any criminal trying to enter your site but it’s also likely to deter them from attempting a burglary at all. Criminals often target buildings which appear to be vulnerable and therefore, easier to gain access to; a site protected by quality palisade fencing, however, will be less likely to attract unwanted criminal attention.

Palisade fencing can offer exceptional security at an affordable price. This fencing is available in both a galvanized or polyester powder coated finish and is highly versatile; palisade fencing can offer various levels of security depending on the thickness of the steel and the fixing system. Here at Warefence we are committed to providing you with quality, secure fencing to protect your property together with excellent customer service. No matter how small or large your project, our wealth of knowledge and experience means that we’re sure to have the ideal solution for your needs and requirements.

Investing in palisade fencing to get your commercial property’s security up to scratch is a wise decision. If you would like more information about our palisade fencing or any of other the other security fencing systems we supply, don’t hesitate to contact us on 01993 845279 or browse our website for more information.

Sports Ground Commercial Fencing Ready for the Olympics

Friday, August 3rd, 2012

If, like the rest of the UK, you’re all geared up for the Olympics in your town, and if a keenness to take part in sports is taking over  the local residents, drawing everybody toward the nearest sports ground,  you’re going to want to make sure those very sports grounds are looking their best. Obviously the grounds themselves need to be in good shape but it may be that professionally installed commercial fencing could provide the finishing touch and security needed. At Warefence, we’re ready to help sports grounds across the country – as we have done at the Olympic park site itself.

Fencing for sports courts and grounds is always a good idea – not just because it gives a professional, overall aesthetic finish, but also because it increases security, meaning no unwanted visitors can get in to kick up the pitch or vandalise the courts and equipment you so carefully maintain.. Of course, the type of fencing that is ideal for sports grounds should also provide plenty of visibility, so spectators may still take in the games from the outside, whilst also being protected from any stray shots! Our fence systems  are robust and sturdy and will maintain their great looks through the years of inevitable sports related wear and tear they’ll need to endure.

Here at Warefence, we’re dedicated to bringing you the best quality products, whilst delivering a friendly, tailored experience you’ll appreciate and want to come back to. Our many years in the industry providing the best quality service a and holding accreditations to provide reassurance of our commitment to this and to health and safety, has lead us to become highly regarded by many large companies, with long-term major construction clients who manage a range of commercial properties using Warefence as a preferred  fencing contractor.

We understand that no two sports grounds are the same, and as such, each fencing solution must be planned individually. The team at Warefence will discuss your requirements and come up with a package that will provide you with everything you need to fence off those pitches and to keep players and spectators safe. Our trained, experienced operatives are ready to help so give us a call today and get your sports grounds looking better than ever with Warefence.

Thursday, June 28th, 2012

A priority for any school is to provide a safe and secure learning environment for their pupils, and at Warefence we are dedicated to helping achieve this aim. As experienced and professional fencing contractors who have been operating since 1981, we have worked with a huge number of education institutions throughout southern England and South Wales.so we know that we have the expertise to be able to handle your security fencing needs.

A Range of Solutions

At Warefence we understand that all schools have their own requirements depending on individual locations and their relative security issues, and with this in mind we offer various categories of security fencing: ‘Low risk areas/Segregation’, ‘Medium risk area’ and ‘High risk areas’. Our expert team can discuss the options and offer advice on what fencing is right for your school, as well as take you through what each solution offers in terms of security features.

Keeping out Intruders

As well as keeping children safe during school hours, you will need to protect the property from intruders out of hours as well. Schools now have an extensive array of computer and other learning equipment, which has made them increasingly attractive to potential criminals. Our Category 2 fencing provides a certain level of resistance to climbing and breaching, but for a comprehensive security solution our Category 3 fence systems have a height of at least 3 metres and can delay even the most resourceful of intruders.

Projecting a Positive Image

As with every aspect of your building’s exterior, you will want your fencing to help to provide a positive image for your school, rather than make the site resemble a prison! Reducing the visual impact of our fencing is one of our core aims particularly within this sector, and we do not believe that you need to compromise aesthetics for security.

- Rigid Mesh Panels
- Bow Top and Vertical Top Railings
