Temporary fences and their varieties

Many people who want to protect their territory from the penetration of various unwanted persons during the construction of any objects. To do this, they use temporary fences that protect the construction site fairly well or any other object.

These protective structures are useful not only to protect themselves and their property, but also to avoid injuries to persons who accidentally hit the construction site.

One of the options for a temporary fence at the construction site

Such fences are used not only for blocking construction sites. With their help, you can perform a temporary fencing of the excavation, separate the section of the road being repaired, designate a parking space for vehicles, select a storage area.

Without such constructions it is impossible to imagine any mass event. For example, a concert, where such temporary fences protect the stage, so that people do not run out on it.

An example of a conventional metal movable barrier.

These fences can be purchased ready-made or made to order, while you can specify all the necessary individual needs, as well as the specificity of the fence. It is also recommended to watch the video in this article, which will help clarify a number of important points.

Characteristics of temporary protective structures

The main goal of all fences is to prevent people from entering the protected area so that they do not cause damage to their health or property that is behind the fence. These designs provide protection, as well as the assignment of people to a safe distance from the place where the work is carried out.

Construction site fence

All containment structures should have such properties as ease of installation, long service life and reliability. Such barriers and fences usually consist of several parts (blocks). Thanks to this design, it is easy to transfer fences from one place to another, after all, assembling and then dismantling the fence with your own hands is not difficult.

All modern fences can be made in any color, even in the most unusual and bright. They also produce barriers in the style of the customer company, where all brand colors are supported.

In addition to the appearance, these fences must have such qualities as mobility and reliability. Of course, it will be cheaper and easier to fence off the site with a simple simple red ribbon, but then you can simply forget about the safety of people passing by.

There are also modern Fensys fencing systems - these are galvanized fences with high-quality polymer coating. They make these facilities in Russia, in compliance with all European standards. Such constructions are used practically everywhere, starting from warehouse premises and ending with kindergartens and camps.

Important! It is worth noting that on the construction site it is necessary to approve an outage for the installation of temporary fencing (outage - a project for the production of works) on asphalt and tiled surfaces within the red lines of streets.

The main functions of temporary fencing

For example, temporary metal fences are used at any festivals, concerts, etc. They are assembled in just a few tens of minutes, and after the end of the event, such barriers are very quickly dismantled.

Plastic nets for fencing sports grounds are widely used. Such structures are also fairly easy to assemble / disassemble, the more they are needed on almost every sports field, so that people passing by do not get injured. Moreover, the price of plastic mesh is low and 1Q. m fence will cost very cheap.

Temporary barriers are used in many other cases:

• in parking lots (fenced parking spaces);
• during sports competitions, rallies, concerts or other public events (fences hold back a crowd of people or separate participants from spectators);
• in large warehouses;
• in especially dangerous places (ditches, trenches, pits, manholes without a cover, etc.);
• at the trash sites (fences prevent penetration of unauthorized persons, cats, dogs).

Also, fences protect protected sections of the road or sidewalks, namely those sections of the roadway along which neither people nor vehicles can move. When using roadblocks, they perform the same function as road markings, that is, they completely control the movement of cars.

The simplest example of a roadblock is an ordinary concrete slab, on which, as a rule, a sign is hung or a sign with a message about repair work.

Types of temporary fencing

Such fences are of several types, namely: stationary and mobile. For the fencing of the territory, where any work or activities are temporary, they use fences that move easily in space.

Tip! If you have a small construction and do not want to buy a fence, which in a month will not be needed, then rent a fence for construction sites will help. Today, many companies provide this service.

Installation of a mobile barrier involves the use of the most durable and high-quality pillars for the fence, because it will be them who will bear the entire load from the enclosing structure. It is very important that the supporting pillars are of high quality, because the reliability and durability of the whole structure depends on it.

Stationary fences, as a rule, are constructed where they will stand for a sufficiently long time (for example, the construction of a high-rise building). Such fencing can be used only once, after dismantling the fence can not be used or restored.

Total

Temporary fences are used in many areas and in most cases they serve so that ordinary people do not accidentally go to the place where construction work is carried out, do not fall into the open hatch, trench, pit.
