East Horsley palisade fencing: specification, programme and site access

This page covers palisade fencing for commercial occupiers around East Horsley and Ripley: yards, depots, substations, schools, car parks and industrial units. The survey establishes the risk, the swept path of your largest vehicle and the position of buried services, then the specification is written down before anyone quotes a rate. School and car park boundaries that need a round-top pale rather than a triple-point finish is the recurring local variable.

Page purpose

For security risk briefs, a generic regional specification would miss the local plot conditions.

Palisade Fencing installed on a commercial site near East Horsley, KT24, showing the perimeter detail described on this page

What we record on the survey

  • East Horsley is inside our 30-mile core area, so site visits are arranged within a week and project supervision is daily, not weekly.
  • We've spent enough time on KT24 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a palisade fence - the builders merchants and plant yards around Aldershot and Farnborough where W-section palisade is the insurer-friendly line that gets missed when a national firm quotes from a desk.
  • Quotes are written, fixed and broken down by stage, with the same crew on site from day one through to clean-down.

    W-section triple-point palisade to a builders merchants yard fronting a public footpath

  2. 02

    Palisade to the road frontage with weld mesh behind, so CCTV keeps clear sightlines

  3. 03

    Replacing bent and levered pales on an existing run rather than rebuilding the whole perimeter

Why a facilities manager can sign this off

Customers in KT24 can ask for two or three recent addresses to drive past before agreeing the quote - we don't quote work we can't show.

FAQs - Palisade Fencing in East Horsley

Can the palisade fence be installed while our East Horsley site stays open?
Yes. We phase the run so no section is left open at the end of a day, keep vehicle and pedestrian routes working, and take out of hours slots where daytime work would interrupt trading. That approach is priced into the quote rather than added later.
What local conditions change the specification around KT24?
Most often school and car park boundaries that need a round-top pale rather than a triple-point finish. We also record ground type, buried services, gate swept paths and whether the boundary is overlooked by existing camera coverage before fixing the specification.
Do you provide a written specification we can tender against?
Yes. The quote states profile or section, height, post centres, foundation detail, toppings, gate hardware and programme, so a procurement team can compare it against other tenders line by line rather than on a headline figure.
What is the cost of a palisade fence for a site near Ripley?
Steel palisade fencing typically runs £110-£190 per metre fitted depending on height, pale profile and ground conditions, with gates from £1,800. Ground conditions and access on the individual site move that figure, which is why we survey before committing to a rate or a programme date.
What guarantee comes with a commercial install?
A written workmanship guarantee on every commercial installation, alongside the manufacturer cover on materials and any gate automation. It is issued at handover with the site walk round, not promised verbally.
What insurance do you carry for work in East Horsley?
£5m public liability and £10m employers liability. Certificates go out with task specific RAMS and CSCS records before mobilisation, which is normally what a facilities manager or principal contractor asks for before booking an induction.

Booking the site survey

Most East Horsley perimeters need one visit to establish ground, services and gate geometry, after which the specification and programme are fixed in writing. This applies to palisade fencing enquiries from East Horsley and the surrounding KT24 commercial estates.

Get the specification in writing
