Commercial security fence installation across Basingstoke and RG21-RG24

Basingstoke sites that trade through an installation need the programme designed first and the fence second. We phase runs in sections, use temporary heras where a length is open, take evening and weekend slots where daytime work would stop your operation, and keep vehicle access working throughout. The technical variable here is usually industrial estates around Farnborough and Aldershot where 2.4m weld mesh is the accepted perimeter standard.

Page purpose

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

Security Fencing installed on a commercial site near Basingstoke, RG21-RG24, showing the perimeter detail described on this page

What we record on the survey

  • Basingstoke 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 RG21-RG24 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a security fence - the car parks and retail service yards where the fence line has to keep vehicle access working throughout 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.

Why a facilities manager can sign this off

Workmanship on every Basingstoke project is guaranteed and we return for snag visits within two weeks of completion if anything needs adjusting.

Steve from Knightscapes was very prompt at getting in touch and popping round to quote. After discussion I added a new raised bed along with completely replacing my back fence. Steve and Callum were friendly and professional, working quickly and efficiently and tidied up after themselves. I definitely will have them back to do more work and have recommended them to a friend.

FAQs - Security Fencing in Basingstoke

Can the security fence be installed while our Basingstoke 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 RG21-RG24?
Most often industrial estates around Farnborough and Aldershot where 2.4m weld mesh is the accepted perimeter standard. 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 security fence for a site near Brighton Hill?
Security fencing typically runs £95-£190 per metre fitted depending on height, mesh or palisade profile and toppings, with gates quoted separately 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 Basingstoke?
£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 Basingstoke perimeters need one visit to establish ground, services and gate geometry, after which the specification and programme are fixed in writing. This applies to security fencing enquiries from Basingstoke and the surrounding RG21-RG24 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 Basingstoke and security fencing so the enquiry reaches the commercial survey list.
