Frequently Asked Questions
What is the standard spacing between palisade pales?
Pale spacing varies depending on the security level and specification required. Common centres are typically between 100mm and 150mm, but we can adjust spacing to suit your site requirements — contact us to discuss the most appropriate configuration for your perimeter.
What heights are available for palisade fencing panels?
Palisade panels are available in a range of standard heights, commonly from 1.2m up to 3.0m. Panels are made to measure, so non-standard heights can also be produced to match existing fencing or specific security needs.
Are the pointed tops of the pales an effective anti-climb feature?
The pointed pale tops are a visual and physical deterrent that makes scaling the fence more difficult. The design is a common choice for industrial and commercial perimeters where reducing climb-over risk is a priority.
Can palisade fencing be matched with a palisade gate of the same style?
Yes, we manufacture palisade gates using the same pale design and spacing as the fencing panels, giving a consistent appearance across the full perimeter boundary. Gates can be supplied as single or double leaf, pedestrian or vehicle width.
What post type is used for palisade fencing panels?
Palisade panels are typically secured to steel posts, which can be supplied in a range of sizes depending on panel height and wind loading. Post type and fixing method are confirmed at the specification stage for your site.
Can palisade fencing be used on uneven or sloping ground?
Yes, palisade fencing can be installed on sloping ground. Panels can be raked or stepped to follow the ground line — contact us with details of the site gradient so we can advise on the most practical approach.
Is palisade fencing suitable for commercial and industrial perimeters?
Palisade fencing is a widely used option for commercial and industrial boundaries due to its robust construction, height options, and pointed pale tops. It provides a clear boundary definition while acting as a visible deterrent.
Can palisade fencing be powder coated in a specific colour?
Yes, palisade panels and posts are available with a galvanised finish as standard, with the option of powder coating in any RAL colour. Popular choices for commercial sites include dark green, black, and anthracite grey.
How are palisade fence panels fixed to the posts?
Panels are typically secured to posts using anti-tamper fixings or standard bolts, depending on the security level required. Anti-tamper fixings are an option where there is a higher concern about unauthorised removal.
