Risk Assessment
This is one of the most important steps when deciding on a particular type of security fencing. It is one that covers a series of elements such as performance, future maintenance and safety. View your premises from the perspective of an intruder with any type of garden fencing or commercial fencing. This helps in identifying potential weaknesses or risks and, in turn, guarantees an installation that performs as it should.
To ensure the effectiveness and functionality of a fence, it is important for the design of security gates and barriers to match the installation. An added benefit to this is that the aesthetics look much better than mismatched products.
Wherever possible, schools in Warrington should have different entrance points for pedestrians and traffic. We provide safety barriers to control access into and out of car parks. Used in conjunction with fencing and gates, safety barriers further protect your students, your staff and your visitors.
Safety Standards
Whichever style of security fencing you decide upon, it is vital that it meets current safety standards. An unsuitable fence poses risks, such as sharp edges and the potential for clothes catching on snag points. Our commercial fencing has approval from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA). This minimises hazards. Perimeter fences should be taller than traditional panels, and taller than those used to separate individual areas or control movement.
Garden fencing on school grounds can be used to divide play areas, but it doesn’t need to be as tall as security fencing or security gates around the site’s boundary. It is also an essential point that safety barriers, gate hardware and other features used to form perimeters suit their intended use.
We supply quality products that have been carefully assessed.
Appearance
While the focus of commercial fencing for schools is security, it’s important to think about how it will look. You will want your Warrington school to look inviting to your current and future students, as well as keep them safe. Some security fencing, and security gates in turn, can look imposing. We can help you to get around this by supplying fences, gates and safety barriers in your school’s colours, or with branding like school badges. This makes things more personable.
With 25 years of experience behind us, we’ll find the perfect design and style for your project. From timber garden fencing, to mesh and palisade commercial fencing, we supply whatever your school needs and install it to a professional standard.
