Commercial palisade fence installation across Fleet and GU51

Facilities managers in Fleet 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 builders merchants and plant yards around Aldershot and Farnborough where W-section palisade is the insurer-friendly line.

Page purpose

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

Palisade Fencing installed on a commercial site near Fleet, GU51, showing the perimeter detail described on this page

What we record on the survey

  • Fleet 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 GU51, GU52 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.

What the quote covers

  • 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

    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

Last year alone we worked across Fleet and the neighbouring Church Crookham / Crookham Village side most weeks, with the same two-crew rotation supervising every job.

FAQs - Palisade Fencing in Fleet

Can the palisade fence be installed while our Fleet 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 GU51?
Most often builders merchants and plant yards around Aldershot and Farnborough where W-section palisade is the insurer-friendly line. 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 Elvetham Heath?
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 Fleet?
£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 Fleet 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 Fleet and the surrounding GU51 commercial estates.

Get the specification in writing

A survey gives you a written specification, a programme and a fixed figure, all of which can be compared against other tenders. Mention Fleet and palisade fencing so the enquiry reaches the commercial survey list.
