Commercial Yard Fencing, Potters Bar: operational-grade spec for 1930s semis
We approach commercial yard fencing in Potters Bar from the failure end backwards. Specifying domestic-grade hinges on a gate opening 40 times a day — six-month failure — that's the single most common thing we're called back to fix, and it's the first thing our spec addresses. Recent work on The Walk and Darkes Lane. We orient jobs off Oakmere Park. Darkes Lane terrace shared boundary. Closeboard with concrete posts, line agreed with neighbour. Replaced two leaning panel fences in a single mobilisation.

How we build commercial yard fencing in Potters Bar
2.4m palisade or 358 weld-mesh, hot-dip galvanised then RAL-coded powder-coat, concrete-set 100SHS or 76CHS line posts. On Potters Bar jobs we adjust for many gardens border the green belt — the brief usually needs sturdy stock-proof boundary work.
Property mix locally: 1930s semis, post-war detached homes around Cranborne Road, and infill developments near Little Heath. Typical gardens: generous rear gardens — often deep enough for decking plus a separate utility area. Postcodes we regularly service: EN6.
Why this spec, for trade yards, self-storage sites, workshops and small industrial units
- hot-dip galvanised then powder-coated finishes carry a 25-year service life on a working yard
- gate posts sized for daily commercial cycle counts rather than domestic once-a-day operation
- we co-ordinate with the alarm and CCTV installer so cabling routes through the posts, not around them
Typical commercial yard fencing briefs in Potters Bar
- → 358 weld-mesh perimeter with CCTV pole mounts integrated into the line posts
- → hoop-top mesh around a client-visitor forecourt where palisade would look wrong
