Modular fencing: design, properties, installation

Preferences of manufacturers of building materials, as well as their consumers, are shifting towards manufacturability and economy. At the same time, there is a tendency towards reliability and durability.

Representatives of this combination - modular fencing Grand Line. These are the modern, strong, durable and beautiful fences made of a metal profile with a polymeric covering.

Fences and modular fences are becoming popular in the Russian market.

Construction features

Modular design

The fence consists of separate modules that are assembled like a constructor.

The main structural distinction characteristic of Grand Line fences and other similar products is modular design..

This means that the fence consists of individual elements - modules that gather together on the site.

This design allows you to achieve a number of advantages:

• Work does not require existence of difficult expensive tools;
• The installation process of the fence is accelerated;
• Additional training of workers and improvement of their qualification is not required: the work is done by hand with instructions, it is enough to own a screwdriver and level;
• The use of energy-intensive and expensive electric arc welding is not required;
• The fence turns out to be aesthetically perfect and does not require additional painting, care, etc.

Important! If we take into account all the stages of installation, the resulting price of modular type fencing will be comparable to the cost of conventional fences, and sometimes cheaper.

Connections

In the photo, the X-bracket is the patented mount of the Grand Line company.

Another design feature of modular fence systems is convenient and reliable connections. X-bracket is a piece of galvanized steel, designed for fixing the guide lag or pipes to the posts.

The vertical part of the bracket is attached to the pole through the front and flanking holes and wings, through which the product is attracted to the metal pole by self-tapping screws.

The horizontal part is the wings into which logs or rectangular tubes are inserted and fastened with self-tapping screws. The wings can be bent and perform turns at any angle, which is very, very convenient.

T-bracket for mounting the guides to the pillars.

Also noteworthy is the T-bracket, which serves to fix the lower and upper lag-guides. The fence is obtained at the same time more accurate and beautiful, as the profile sheets are inserted into the grooved lags.

Bearing parts and profiled sheets

The module consists of bearing parts, fasteners (brackets) and profiled sheet.

It is also worth noting the supporting parts of the modules: they are strong, lightweight and durable steel pipes of rectangular cross section and gutter. All parts are coated with zinc, which prevents corrosion and prolongs the service life of products.

In addition, many parts (standard and premium kits - all) are coated with high-tech modern polymer dye, which is applied in a special electrostatic unit and polymerized in a furnace.

At the same time, an absolutely even, monolithic and hermetic coating is obtained that protects the product from the effects of the sun, atmosphere, moisture and oxygen.

Also polymer dye looks great, does not fade and does not peel off with time.

All parts are equipped with special plugs that prevent the ingress of moisture, debris, snow, animals and other unwanted or foreign objects inside the products.

Plastic nets are also popular for fencing sports fields, which allow visual control of coaches and fans, while preventing the penetration of projectiles outside the stadiums and protect viewers and passersby.

The company gives a 10-year warranty to cover their products. The official service life of the fence - more than 50 years.

Finally, it must be said that the manufacturer owns the full production cycle of his products, which makes it possible to control the quality at all stages.

Installation

Build fences modular design reminds work with the designer.

Installation of barrier structures made of modules is much simpler, faster and more technological than similar works in the case of traditional fences. The site is the final assembly of the system without the use of special tools, welding, priming and painting.

All that is needed for work is a screwdriver, level, earth drill and step by step instructions.

We bring to your attention the installation of the fence class economy from the company Grand Line:

1. Step one. Mark up the site for the installation of the fence. To do this, we set up marking poles on the edges of the territory, between which we stretch the rope at the height of the upper border of the fence.
2. Step two. Using an earth drill, we make holes in the ground at a distance of 250 cm from each other. The depth should exceed the depth of soil freezing, for central Russia it is 1.5 m. The diameter of the holes is 25 cm.

   

   A great helper - an earthen bur

3. Step three. With the help of the level, we expose the pillars for the fence into the prepared holes strictly vertically. Height controlled tensioned rope.
4. Step Four. We make reinforcement and concreting pillars.

   

   Correct installation of the pillars promises that the construction will be strong and durable

5. Step five. We fix X-brackets on the posts with screws, the distance between the upper and lower anchorages is 1460 mm. We use screws 5.5? 19 mm. Step six. In the brackets we install rectangular pipes of size 40 × 20 × 2500/3000 mm and fix them with self-tapping screws. Step seven. We expose the panel on the level by placing wooden blocks under it. When the panel is horizontal, fasten it with screws or rivets.

Tip! At the time of the work the best way to organize the protection of the object will be to rent a fence for the construction sites. This will save you from the need to build temporary fences.

I would also like to remind you of the need to properly fix the pillars: do not neglect the fittings and high-quality concrete, the service life of the whole structure depends on it.

Installation элементов ограждения не вызывает затруднений

Conclusion

As you can see, the use of modular designs is preferable in many ways: simplicity, convenience, speed, economy, reliability, beauty. Installation work is simplified as much as possible. In the presented video in this article you will find additional information on this topic.
