Benefits of security fencing for your Glasgow business or home

Fences and gates are used to denote a boundary. They mark out the boundary of land but also send a clear message that the land and property behind them are out-of-bounds.

For many, security fencing at their Glasgow properties is an important security aspect. But, its design, along with materials used can be a determining factor in how well the security fencing does its job.

How high?

Many people assume that for security fencing to be successful, it needs to be metres high. In some ways, this is true but clearly, if an intruder can scale the fence then the object of people keeping out is defeated.

There are also times when you may need planning consent if the fence is to be over a certain height. You may find that this places restrictions on the types of materials that can be used, and the look of the fence too.

How will it look?

This is an important question. You clearly want it to look like a deterrent but, many people are not too keen on anything that looks too industrial. In other words, they don’t want coils of barbed wire running along the top edge of the fence if it is to be built at a domestic property.

We suggest that you design a fence that is in keeping with not only your property but the properties and landscape around it. Security fencing at Glasgow properties does not necessarily have to look like industrial fencing!

What materials can I use?

There are all kinds of choices when it comes to what kind of material and style you can use. Some industrial or business premises opt for chain link fencing, whilst some domestic properties may opt for more ornate metal fencing.

Wood can be used too but may not offer the same level of robust protection as some other types of materials. Railing fencing is also common at domestic properties too.

Can security fencing at a Glasgow property improve its value?

By making your property safer, presenting an extra hurdle for intruders to climb, you are making your property safer. This can sometimes be reflected in the insurance premiums that you may pay, as well as making it a more attractive proposition to buyers in the future too.
