Fence

The arrangement of children's preschool institutions and the territories around them are subject to special requirements, regulated by the SNiP, SanPiN, and departmental building codes. Considerable attention is paid to what should be kindergarten fences, as well as fencing stairs in kindergartens.

Some adjustments to the general rules may be made by the building codes of individual subjects of the federation, which take into account the geographical and climatic characteristics of the area and other parameters.

General requirements for the installation of external fences

An unknowing person may not know that for each object of production or socio-cultural purposes there are different requirements for the construction of obstacles. But in fact, renting a fence for construction sites and a stationary fence around a hospital or kindergarten are completely different things.

When planning the construction or reconstruction of a children's institution, it is best to order fences and other blocking structures to specialized organizations that are familiar with the requirements in this area. In this case, it is possible to find the optimal price-quality ratio. But the customer himself is obliged to examine the regulatory documentation in order to be able to control the contractor.

Design requirements

According to the BCH 49-86, in the fencing of the territories of kindergartens there should be two separate entrances with a gate and a wicket lockable.

The same entrance and entrance must be on the other side of the fence.

As for the fence itself, it should be arranged in accordance with the following rules:

  • The fence for the kindergarten should have a height of 1.6 meters. Depending on the terrain features, this parameter can be reduced or increased by 0.4 meters.

For reference. Requirements for height may be different depending on the norms of the subject of the federation. For example, in Moscow, the instruction requires you to do it at least 2.5 meters.

  • The fence should consist mainly of vertical elements, the distance between which does not exceed 10 cm. Frequent horizontal mates are allowed along the bottom of the fence, as an obstacle to penetration into the inner territory of stray animals.
  • The fence should not have sharp protrusions on top, so that in case of an attempt to perelaza children are not injured.

Safety is the main criterion

  • It is not recommended to arrange a solid fence, as it is worse to withstand the effects of strong winds and can fall.

Attention! In regions with high summer air temperatures, a solid fence can cause a significant increase in temperature inside the enclosed area.

In addition to external fencing on the territory of the kindergarten, there may also be internal fences denoting the boundaries of playgrounds, gaming complexes. For them, recommended height from 70 cm to one meter. Safety plastic nets are great for this purpose for fencing sports fields.

Requirements for materials

When choosing materials for the device fences for kindergartens, preference should be given to those of them that are highly resistant to the effects of the external environment and vandal actions by irresponsible people.

In other words, fencing should not require regular repairs - repair of cracks, cleaning from corrosion, painting. Even if the employees of the institution do this work, not every kindergarten will have the means to buy materials for repairs.

The external attractiveness of the fence is also important - on the one hand, it should not cause negative associations in children, and on the other, it should harmoniously fit into the surrounding landscape and correspond to the architecture of the building.

Thus, it is possible to identify the main criteria for the selection of materials: it is reliability, practicality, durability, safety and visual appeal. Perhaps more than others, they correspond to the modular fence of thick metal mesh or PVC.

Note. Additional advantages of such fences include the fact that they do not have a seamy side and look equally aesthetically pleasing both outside and inside the fenced area.

How and from what are stair railings in kindergartens

Departmental building codes (BCH) do not overlook the issues of fencing for the stairs of kindergartens, regulating their design, quality of installation and requirements for materials.

These standards take into account both the growth of children, and their sometimes excessive energy and curiosity.

  • Fencing stairs in kindergartens should not contain crossbars. The space between the racks is filled with either vertical elements with a diameter of 12 mm or more, or a solid monolithic material - safe and impact resistant.

The option of a solid boom

Attention! The distance between the vertical strings of the fence should not exceed 10 cm.

  • Since the stairs are used by children of different ages and adults, the handrails for them should be triple. The top one is located at a height of 85-110 cm, the next one is at a height of 75 cm, and the bottom one, designed for kids, is at a height of 50 cm. They must have a diameter of at least 25 mm.

Staircase with railings on three levels

  • When using glass as a continuous staircase fence, it is allowed to use only triplex or tempered glass with a treated edge, 10 mm thick or more.
  • Regardless of the material from which the railings and fencing stairs for kindergartens are made, they should be smooth, without rough edges, sharp corners and edges.
  • It is strictly forbidden to choke children's handrails on the turns of the stairs - they must be continuous.
  • The total height of the fencing stairs in kindergartens is assumed to be 1.2 m, and the height of the fencing for the porch is at least 0.8 m.
