Everything You Need to Know ABOUT BUYING Temporary Fencing in Australia

What is Temporary Fencing / Portable Fencing?

Temporary fencing is a portable barrier system used to create a secure enclosure or to restrict access to a particular area. It’s typically used for construction sites, crowd control at events, or to secure vacant blocks of land. At Site HQ, we offer convenient temporary fencing packs of 25, 50, 100 and 200 metres, to get you started.

A temporary fencing system consists of three components:

Temp Fence Panels: These are usually made of galvanized steel and welded wire mesh, and they interlock or connect with clamps to form the fence line.
Concrete Filled Feet: Attached at the bottom of the panels, these feet offer stability to the temporary fence. In certain situations, plastic bases or spikes may be used instead, based on the specific requirements and ground conditions.
Clamps: These fasten the fence panels together to create a continuous and secure barrier.

Benefits of Temp Fence?

From extra security on a construction site to crowd control at special events, temporary fence has numerous purposes and potential applications. The benefits of temporary fence are:

Cost effective – lower cost solution compared to permanent fencing
Enhanced Security – By establishing secure perimeters, temporary fencing prevents trespassers and ensures that your site remains safe.
Versatile – Temporary fencing can be moved from site to site or tailored to your needs.

Is Temporary Fencing mandatory on Australian construction sites?

The Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 states that anyone in charge of a workplace, such as a builder managing a construction site, must ensure that the site and its entry and exit points are safe and pose no risks to health. The most common way to comply with this law is by using suitable temporary fencing. This type of fencing helps to discourage and keep unauthorised individuals from entering unoccupied construction sites.
