The

Challenge

This contract was the first installation of the INFINITY™ Fencing System using a 358 Weldedmesh infill and electric fence topping.

The project involved considerable civil works on a site once occupied by a brick company. Needless to say there were many remnants of that time, which made for interesting excavation. 

Being a high profile site, the client required the fence frame to be painted using a 2 coat polysiloxane process. - an expensive option requiring considerable management.


The

Result

The best looking 358 Weldmesh installation in Sydney !! The world's first "Cornerless fence" was revealed and created plenty of interest from our rivals, seen driving by as the fence went up.

A fully Engineered construction that included a baseplated post chemically anchored to a reinforced off-form concrete Bund Wall. Asphalt hardstand inside to contain liquids overflow makes this project one that many of our competitors would shy away from.

The quality of installation was such that the Client approved the product for future installations, and even though it wasn't required they now have a perimeter that can have services all the way round without ever digging up the asphalt. How good is that ?!
