How Do I Know Which Palisade I Need?
First Fence is pleased to offer a variety of palisade products to the market, but each one has a specific sector in mind, so how do you know which one you need for your next job? In our guide, we take a look at each type and what job it’s ideal for.

Our Buyer’s Guide

There are 3 main types of palisade First Fence offers: standard palisade, PaliGuard®, and GRP non-conductive palisade.

Standard Palisade

Palisade Fencing provides a strong, long-lasting security solution, offering both protection and a clear boundary for sites. Made from galvanised cold-rolled steel, it deters intrusion with its robust, intimidating design and can be installed on level or sloping ground up to 30°. Palisade systems can include pedestrian or vehicle gates and are suitable for both hard and soft surfaces, with all components assembled on-site.

Matching gates are available.

Heavy-Duty PaliGuard®

PaliGuard® is a high-security perimeter system designed for high-risk sites, combining exceptional strength with a psychologically imposing design. Supplied as a kit for on-site assembly, it can be installed on hard or soft ground and follows slopes up to 30° with its self-raking design.

The fencing is BS1722 Part 12 compliant, and is thicker than standard palisade. PaliGuard® has a pale thickness of 2.5mm or 3mm for increased wind bearing.

Matching gates are available from 1.0m to 10.0m to cover everything from walkways and restricted areas to access areas for heavy goods vehicles.

Spesifications

  • Heights: 1500mm, 1800mm, 2000mm, 2100mm, 2400mm, 3000mm
  • Gate widths: 1000mm, 1200mm, 1500mm, 2000mm, 2500mm, 2750mm, 3000mm, 3500mm, 4000mm, 4500mm, 5000mm, 6000mm, 7000mm, 8000mm, 9000mm, 10000mm
  • Post types: Dig in, bolt down
  • Head types: Triple point, round and notched, single point
  • Profiles: W, D

GRP Non-Conductive

Also known as Glass Reinforced Plastic, GRP Non-Conductive palisade offers a strong, maintenance-free security solution for sensitive sites where metal fencing is unsuitable. The BS1722-12 compliant fencing is lightweight, corrosion and chemical-resistant, and UV-protected.

Matching gates are available in a pedestrian 1.2m width, or a 4m double leaf width for vehicle access.

Spesifications

  • Heights: 1800mm, 2400mm, 3000mm
  • Gate widths: 1200mm, 4000mm
  • Post types: Dig in, bolt down
  • Head types: Single point
