Question 1

How long will my metal fence last?

Accepted Answer

Metal fences generally last between 15 and 20 years, depending on its protection. Our galvanised chain-wire fencing is a long lasting and durable product, and with modern powder-coating techniques, the fence can be even longer lasting and more attractive.

Question 2

How high can I build my fence?

Accepted Answer

While each state in Australia has its own law regarding fencing height, and some councils as well, residential fences in NSW should not exceed 1.8m. Commercial fences must not exceed 3m and if it is adjacent to a residential zone, at least 75% above 1.8m must be transparent. As with digging electricals, it is recommended that you contact the local council before building your fence.

Question 3

How beneficial is powder coating?

Accepted Answer

Chainwire fences are strong and can last for decades, overtime though rust will set in and small openings in the powder coating can permit rust to form and develop. Having no powder coating will speed up that process as the metal has no protective layer. A steel fence that is not coated with zinc will typically rust after a week or two after installation.

Question 4

How can I protect my metal fence from corrosion?

Accepted Answer

Corrosion is a very valid concern, especially when fencing is installed near salt-water and other tough environments. By ensuring that your metal fencing has a protective layer on it, we can minimize the amount of corrosion and slow it down.

Question 5

Can I install my own fencing?

Accepted Answer

Remembering that fencing is a key element for any type of property, keeping you and your valuables safe, you should make sure that you have a solid plan before starting any fencing projects.

Question 6

Should I fix an existing damaged fence, or install a new one?

Accepted Answer

Whether you’ve bought an existing property with a fence, or are looking at buying a second-hand fence, knowing when it needs to be repaired or simply torn down and new one installed is important for any property owner. Simple fixes such as leaning posts, sagging chain mesh, or noisy hinges are relatively easy and cheap to fix.

Question 7

How can I maintain my fencing?

Accepted Answer

Like any other part of a property, fencing will benefit from regular maintenance as it will help keep it functioning well and maintain it’s appearance over the years. With our metal fences, giving them a good hose down once a year, more if a rough storm occurs, will help along with looking out for debris and promptly removing it.

Question 8

Which fencing type should I install?

Accepted Answer

When deciding which fencing type to turn to, consider some of the following:  Location – will it be protected from corrosion and how much space is available? Is it for a domestic or industrial purpose – does how it looks matter? Is it for security purposes – how strong should the fence be? How much will the fence cost? Is it for livestock?
