Security Fencing for Hindhead sites that have to stay open

Facilities managers in Hindhead 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 yards and depots on clay where post foundations need a wider collar to stay plumb through the first summer.

Page purpose

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

What we record on the survey

  • Hindhead 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 GU26 streets to know which ground conditions matter for a security fence - the substation and utility compounds needing hand-dug post holes because of live buried cabling 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.

Steven is a tradesman I would recommend to anyone. If he finds a problem he comes to you with the solution for the problem and not just the problem. The standard of Steven's work is outstanding and we are extremely pleased with the results. I would recommend Steven Knight of Knightscapes without hesitation.

FAQs - Security Fencing in Hindhead

Can the security fence be installed while our Hindhead 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 GU26?
Most often yards and depots on clay where post foundations need a wider collar to stay plumb through the first summer. 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 Shottermill?
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 Hindhead?
£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 Hindhead 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 Hindhead and the surrounding GU26 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 Hindhead and security fencing so the enquiry reaches the commercial survey list.
