Sports & Recreational Fencing - MUGA & Spectator Rail Solutions
At First Fence, our Sports and Recreational Fencing range is designed to provide secure, reliable, and long-lasting perimeter and internal fencing solutions for a variety of sporting and play environments. Whether you're safeguarding a busy public park, enclosing a multi-use games area (MUGA), or installing gates for a school playground, our products are engineered to deliver both performance and peace of mind.
Our fencing ensures the safety of users, both participants and spectators, by creating defined, protected areas while maintaining clear visibility and access where required. With robust construction, anti-climb properties and weather-resistant finishes, our range meets the demands of high-traffic recreational spaces, helping you comply with safety regulations and local authority requirements.
Key Features & Benefits of Sports Fencing
Our fencing systems are designed to lower the risk of accidents. They create safe boundaries for players, children, and onlookers.
- High Durability: Made from strong galvanised steel and finished with a tough powder coating, our fencing products are built to last in all weather conditions.
- Low Maintenance: Thanks to their protective finishes and sturdy construction, our fencing options require minimal maintenance over time.
- Impact Resistance: Particularly suited for areas where balls or equipment may regularly strike the fence, such as football and basketball courts.
- Anti-Climb Options: Some designs include tight mesh patterns that help prevent climbing, enhancing both security and safety.
- Compliance: Our range is developed in line with British and EU safety standards to ensure suitability for use in public and educational settings.
Applications of Sports Fencing and Gates
Our sports fencing solutions are ideal for a wide variety of recreational settings. These include school sports grounds, university campuses, public parks, leisure centres and local authority play areas. Whether you're developing a five-a-side pitch, enclosing a tennis court or upgrading a children’s playground, our fencing systems offer the right balance between strength, safety and accessibility.
Types of Sports and Recreational Fencing We Offer
MUGAs
Our Multi-Use Games Area fencing systems offer robust containment for active sports zones. Available in rebound mesh options, they’re built to withstand regular ball impacts, minimising noise and offering excellent durability.
Spectator Fencing
Designed to separate players from onlookers, our spectator rails provide a safe viewing area without compromising visibility. Ideal for football pitches and community arenas, they help organise space and improve crowd safety.
Chain Link Fencing
A versatile and cost-effective choice for schools, playgrounds, and sports courts. Chain link fencing provides secure enclosures while maintaining visibility, and is easy to install and maintain. Chain link fencing is available from 0.9m to 3.6m high, with galvanised or green PVC-coated finishes.
Self-Closing Playground Gates
Essential for child-safe environments, our self-closing gates prevent unauthorised access and ensure the perimeter remains secure after each use. Commonly installed in nurseries, playgrounds, and parks.
Rebound Mesh Fencing and Gates
A perfect solution for high-impact sports like football and basketball, rebound mesh fencing features a tight mesh pattern at lower levels to absorb forceful strikes, reduce noise and minimise damage. This fencing is available in heights from 3.0m to 6.0m, offering strong containment for intense play. To complete the system, we offer matching rebound mesh gates in pedestrian and vehicle access formats, with widths including 1.2m and 2.0m wide.. These gates are built with the same durable mesh to maintain consistent impact resistance and security across your installation.
Guardrails
Installed along pathways, cycle tracks, and at the perimeter of sports facilities, our guardrails provide essential protection for pedestrians and structures alike. They’re especially useful for controlling foot traffic and enhancing public safety.
