Twin wire fencing

Twin Wire Fencing

High-strength fencing that combines durability, visibility, and long-term security.

At Twin Wire Fencing, we provide professional twin wire mesh fencing solutions for commercial, industrial, educational, public sector, and recreational properties throughout the UK. Twin Wire Fencing supplies and installs durable welded mesh fencing systems that deliver excellent perimeter security, outstanding strength, and long-term reliability with minimal maintenance.

Twin wire fencing is one of the most robust mesh fencing systems available. Manufactured using two horizontal steel wires welded to a single vertical wire, it offers significantly greater rigidity and impact resistance than standard mesh fencing. Its strong anti-climb design, open visibility, and attractive appearance make it an ideal solution for schools, warehouses, factories, business parks, sports facilities, utility sites, and commercial developments where both security and aesthetics are important.

Whether you require a secure perimeter for a commercial property, industrial facility, educational campus, or public space, Twin Wire Fencing delivers expertly designed fencing systems built to withstand demanding environments and years of continuous use.

Why Choose Twin Wire Fencing?

At Twin Wire Fencing, we understand that effective perimeter security requires a balance between durability, visibility, and long-term performance. Twin wire fencing provides all three, making it one of the most popular choices for organisations seeking a secure yet visually unobtrusive fencing solution.

Unlike chain link fencing, twin wire mesh panels are extremely rigid and difficult to deform, helping to deter climbing, cutting, and forced entry. The open mesh design also allows excellent visibility across the site, supporting CCTV surveillance, natural supervision, and improved site safety.

All installations are completed with consideration for the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM Regulations), and the relevant provisions of BS 1722, which establishes recognised standards for fencing specification and installation throughout the UK.

Our fencing systems are manufactured from high-quality galvanised steel and are available with durable polyester powder-coated finishes that provide excellent protection against corrosion, UV exposure, and harsh weather conditions. This results in a fencing system that maintains both its structural integrity and appearance for many years with very little maintenance.

Every installation begins with a comprehensive site survey. Twin Wire Fencing assesses boundary layouts, security requirements, access points, ground conditions, and operational needs before recommending the most suitable fencing specification for the project.

How Much Does Twin Wire Fencing Cost?

The cost of twin wire fencing typically ranges from £90 to £220+ per linear metre.

The cost of twin wire fencing solutions depends on the fence height, wire specification, post type, gate requirements, site conditions, surface finish, and the overall length of fencing required.

Standard 868 twin wire fencing generally costs between £90 and £140 per linear metre, making it a popular choice for schools, commercial premises, and public facilities.

Heavier-duty 656 twin wire fencing and reinforced security installations typically range from £120 to £180 per linear metre, depending on the specification and project complexity.

Projects incorporating automated access gates, difficult ground conditions, retaining walls, or enhanced security features may exceed £220 per linear metre.

What is the Twin Wire Fencing Installation Process?

Every installation begins with a detailed site survey carried out by Twin Wire Fencing. We inspect site boundaries, assess security objectives, identify access requirements, and evaluate ground conditions before preparing a tailored fencing specification.

Once approved, the fence line is accurately set out and steel support posts are installed into reinforced concrete foundations. After the posts have been secured, the twin wire mesh panels are fixed using tamper-resistant security fixings that maximise strength and long-term durability.

Where gates are included, they are installed and adjusted to ensure smooth operation and reliable access control. The completed fencing system is then fully inspected to verify alignment, structural stability, finish quality, and compliance with the agreed specification.
