Our PaliGuard® palisade fencing is manufactured in accordance with BS 1722 Part 12, the recognised British Standard covering steel palisade fencing systems.
BS 1722-12 sets out clear criteria relating to:
Meeting this standard confirms that the fencing system satisfies established UK requirements for strength, longevity, and security performance. As a result, PaliGuard® is well-suited to commercial, industrial, and infrastructure applications where compliance with formal specifications is essential.
PaliGuard® is robust, dependable and compliant to BS 1722-12 on fencing kits. Our robust design features D and W profiles, completed with an option of triple point, single point or round & notched pale heads, finished in any colour to suit.
The integrity of your perimeter begins with the pale head. Our three distinct profiles provide a formidable security deterrent, each engineered to meet the specific risk requirements of your site.
The Focused Deterrent: The single-point head presents a sharp, tapered vertical profile. It is specifically designed to provide a high-level psychological and physical barrier, effectively discouraging scaling attempts through its imposing silhouette.
The Balanced Profile: Frequently specified for public-facing perimeters or lower-risk boundaries, the rounded head offers a safer finish. The addition of the notched detail ensures that while the profile is less aggressive, it remains a robust, anti-climb solution.
The High-Security Standard: As the industry benchmark for high-security installations, the splayed triple-point head is designed to be virtually impossible to scale. This configuration provides the ultimate physical barrier and an unmistakable visual warning to any potential intruders.

Selecting the correct profile is critical to the structural performance of your perimeter. Whether you require the maximum rigidity of a W profile or the traditional profile of a D profile, PaliGuard® ensures full compliance with BS 1722-12 standards, providing peace of mind through superior British engineering.
The 'W' shape is the preferred choice for high-security applications. Its unique geometry provides incredible stiffness and resistance to lateral impact, making it extremely difficult to bend or force. Additionally, the fixings are recessed within the 'W' curve, shielding them from tampering and professional vandalism.
The 'D' profile offers a more traditional appearance and is typically selected for medium-security requirements. It provides excellent vertical strength and is often used where the fence needs to integrate seamlessly into corporate or commercial environments without compromising the core security standards of BS 1722-12.

PaliGuard® is available in a comprehensive range of heights, from 1.5m to 3.0m, ensuring a precise fit for both General Purpose (GP) and Security Purpose (SP) applications.
2.5mm and 3.00mm thick pales for added strength and wind bearing.
PaliGuard® gates utilise British Standard compliant pales, attached to the First Fence palisade gate frames, an industry standard in gates. Available in single leaf and double leaf to suit your site.
