PaliGuard® BS 1722-12 Palisade Fencing












PaliGuard® Palisade Fencing- BS 1722-12:2020 Spec
PaliGuard® Palisade Fencing is a high-security perimeter solution engineered to protect high-risk and sensitive sites. Designed as a modern advancement of traditional palisade fencing, it delivers exceptional strength, durability, and long-term performance in demanding environments.
This permanent security system provides a formidable physical barrier with an imposing profile that acts as a powerful visual deterrent. Its precision-engineered components and robust construction make it ideal for securing industrial facilities, commercial premises, utilities, data centres, and critical infrastructure.
Like our standard palisade range, PaliGuard® is supplied in kit form for on-site assembly, ensuring maximum structural integrity and secure installation.
Key Features & Benefits
Versatile Installation Options
PaliGuard® can be installed across a variety of ground conditions:
- Bolt-down posts for secure fixing onto concrete or hard standings
- Dig-in posts for installation into soil or grass surfaces
The system also features self-raking panels, allowing the fence line to follow natural ground contours. It can accommodate gradients of up to 30 degrees without stepping, maintaining a continuous and gap-free security barrier.
Standards Compliance
PaliGuard® Palisade Fencing is manufactured to meet BS 1722-12, providing reassurance that the system complies with recognised British Standards for steel palisade fencing.
Superior Security Design
PaliGuard® derives its enhanced strength from a specialised cold-rolling manufacturing process. By forming the steel at room temperature, this process increases structural rigidity without adding unnecessary weight.
‘W’ Section Steel Pales
A defining feature of the system is its distinctive ‘W’ profile pale design. The thinner central section, combined with reinforced inward-curved edges, provides:
- Increased structural stability
- Enhanced resistance to bending
- Reduced grip points for climbing
Integrated Security Features
PaliGuard® incorporates multiple protective elements as standard:
Anti-Climb Pales
Supplied with triple-pointed pale tops as standard for maximum deterrence. Alternative options, including single-pointed or round and notched tops, are available to suit site-specific requirements.
Reinforced Rail Construction
The top and bottom rail system enhances rigidity across each panel. The top rail includes sharp barbed detailing to further discourage climbing attempts.
Anti-Tamper Fixings
Specialised security fixings prevent unauthorised dismantling. Once tightened, the hexagonal nut head shears off, leaving a smooth, tamper-resistant finish that cannot be removed using standard tools.
Materials & Protective Finish
All PaliGuard® components are manufactured from high-quality cold-rolled steel and galvanised in accordance with BS EN ISO 1461:2009.
This galvanised coating forms a permanent metallurgical bond with the steel, providing long-term protection against corrosion and rust. The result is a low-maintenance fencing solution designed for decades of reliable service.
Supplied in Complete Kit Form
PaliGuard® Palisade Fencing is supplied as a comprehensive kit, including:
- Steel pales
- Horizontal rails
- Posts (bolt-down or dig-in)
- Anti-tamper security fixings
All components are precision-engineered to work together as a cohesive, high-performance security system.
