In this post, we’ll walk you through some of the specialized services and enhancements we offer to strengthen, secure, and customize your fencing system.

Reinforce Your Fence with These Key Structural Enhancements

Middle Rail – Adding Midpoint Stability to Your Fence

The middle rail is a horizontal steel bar installed midway between the top and bottom of a temporary fence panel. It serves as a structural support that dramatically improves the rigidity and strength of the fence.

Why it's important:

• Prevents bending or bowing under pressure.

• Adds reinforcement in areas with frequent pedestrian contact or wind exposure.

• Enhances overall safety and longevity of the fence structure.

  
  

Middle rails are particularly recommended for construction sites that require durable boundaries over a long period, especially in high-traffic zones where people or equipment may lean or push against the fence.

Bottom Rail – Preventing Undermining and Adding Ground-Level Support

The bottom rail is another critical horizontal component, placed at the base of the fencing system. It acts as a safeguard against intrusion and helps stabilize the fence in uneven terrain.

Why it's important:

• Deters individuals or animals from crawling under the fence.

• Provides additional support and rigidity, especially on sloped or rough terrain.

• Keeps fence panels aligned and upright, reducing the risk of collapse.

  
  

Bottom rails are ideal for long-term installations where maintaining a secure perimeter is essential.

Top Rail – Reinforcing Fence Integrity from Above

The top rail is the horizontal bar running along the upper edge of the fencing system. It helps unify the fence line and prevents bending or collapsing from above.

Why it's important:

• Increases the structural integrity of the entire fence.

• Adds a professional, clean finish to the fence’s appearance.

• Discourages climbing by eliminating loose or flexible upper edges.

  
  

Together with the bottom and middle rails, the top rail contributes to a fully reinforced fence that’s built to withstand pressure and provide long-term protection.

Advanced Security Add-ons for High-Risk Areas

3-Stranded Barbed Wire – Maximum Security for Vulnerable Sites

Barbed wire is a classic deterrent that remains one of the most effective methods for securing a perimeter. We offer a 3-stranded configuration that increases difficulty for intruders attempting to breach the fence from above.

Why it's important:

• Serves as a powerful visual and physical deterrent.

• Protects sensitive job sites, storage areas, or remote locations.

• Helps meet security compliance requirements for certain industries.

  
  

This feature is highly recommended for clients storing valuable equipment, managing government contracts, or working in high-risk areas.

Tension Wire (Top and Bottom) – Invisible Strength and Lasting Stability

Tension wire is a heavy-duty wire run tightly along the top and/or bottom of the fence line. It works behind the scenes to keep the fencing taut and aligned.

Why it's important:

• Helps maintain fence shape and prevent sagging.

• Adds resistance against climbing and pulling.

• Strengthens the entire perimeter, especially when paired with privacy screens or mesh.

  
  

Tension wire is a subtle but powerful addition that protects your investment and ensures your fencing remains effective for the duration of your project.

Flexible Gate Solutions for Controlled Access

Swing Gates – Simple, Reliable Entry and Exit Points

Our swing gates are a popular solution for creating controlled access points within a temporary fence setup. These gates operate on hinges, opening inward or outward like a door.

Why it's important:

• Allows vehicle or pedestrian access without compromising security.

• Available in multiple sizes and locking configurations.

• Ideal for day-to-day use on construction sites or event venues.

  
  

Swing gates are an excellent choice for clients who need basic access functionality with dependable durability.

Cantilever (Rolling) Gates – Smooth Operation, Even on Uneven Ground

For a more advanced entry solution, we offer cantilever gates, which slide horizontally to open and close. These gates are not attached to the ground but are instead supported from one end, allowing them to glide smoothly without needing a track.

Why it's important:

• Perfect for sites with gravel, snow, or rough terrain.

• Reduces maintenance and risk of debris interfering with the gate's operation.

• Offers seamless, professional-grade access control for vehicles.

  
  

Cantilever gates are ideal for long-term projects that require reliable, heavy-duty access solutions without compromising safety or appearance.
