Farnham palisade fencing: specification, programme and site access

Facilities managers in Farnham rarely start with a fence type. They start with an insurance threshold, a programme date and a site that cannot close. We carry £5m public liability and £10m employers liability, issue RAMS before mobilisation, and phase the run so the perimeter is secure at the end of every working day. Locally, the detail we check first is school and car park boundaries that need a round-top pale rather than a triple-point finish.

Site conditions that change the specification

  • Farnham 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 GU9, GU10 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a palisade fence - the industrial units backing onto footpaths where a road-facing palisade run deters access before CCTV ever gets involved 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.

Included in the commercial specification

  • W-section pales for maximum rigidity on high-risk yards and depots
  • D-section pales where a lighter, cleaner line suits car parks and school boundaries
  • Heights from 1.8m to 3.0m, with 2.4m the common commercial standard
  • Triple-point, round-top and notched-top pale finishes
  • Bolted or riveted rails, concrete-set posts, and matched single or double-leaf gates
  • £5m public liability and £10m employers liability, CSCS-carded fitters, RAMS before mobilisation

Three practical outcomes for this page

Selected from the service brief and local property context rather than a generic location list.

  1. 01

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

  2. 02

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

  3. 03

    Stepped palisade run down a sloping industrial boundary so the top line stays square

Compliance and accountability

We're insured to £5m public liability, registered for waste carriage, and every Farnham job is signed off in person rather than from photos.

Great job done at good price. Pat and Zac worked hard in rain for 2 days to complete job to a good standard. Recommend to everyone.

FAQs - Palisade Fencing in Farnham

What insurance do you carry for work in Farnham?
£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.
Can the palisade fence be installed while our Farnham 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 GU9?
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 Upper Hale?
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.

Next step for a Farnham perimeter

Send a site plan or a boundary photo and we will confirm what has to be surveyed before a rate is meaningful. This applies to palisade fencing enquiries from Farnham and the surrounding GU9 commercial estates.

Request a site survey

Insurance certificates and RAMS are issued before we attend, so the induction can be booked in parallel. Mention Farnham and palisade fencing so the enquiry reaches the commercial survey list.
