Canberra Fencing secures depots, schools, and critical infrastructure across Fyshwick, Hume, and Mitchell. We install to AS 1725 standards, specializing in heavy-duty Chainwire (with barbed toppings), Garrison Diplomat uprights, and 358 Anti-Climb Mesh for maximum asset protection.
We construct barriers that deter, deny, and delay unauthorized access.
The standard for perimeter security. Available in 1.8m to 3.0m heights with galvanised or black PVC coating. Optional 3-strand barbed wire toppings (cranked or straight) for added deterrence.
Tubular steel fencing with crimped "spear" tops. Offers a formidable visual deterrent while maintaining visibility. Popular for schools, government sites, and commercial frontages.
"Prison Mesh" features apertures too small for fingers or bolt cutters. The ultimate physical barrier for data centers, utilities, and high-risk assets requiring zero-tolerance security.
Commercial security fencing requires deeper footings and heavier gauge steel to resist impact and leverage attacks.
We use 50NB (60.3mm OD) or larger galvanized pipe for chainwire posts, concreted to a minimum depth of 600mm-900mm depending on fence height.
For high security, we can install a concrete plinth or bury the mesh 300mm below ground to prevent access via tunneling.
Custom fabricated sliding track gates and heavy-duty swing gates with shrouds to protect padlocks from bolt cutters.

Serving Fyshwick, Hume, Mitchell, and all ACT industrial zones.
Razor wire and barbed wire are generally restricted to Industrial and Commercial zones (like Fyshwick and Hume) and must be installed at a height (usually 2.0m+) that prevents accidental public contact. Installation in residential zones is typically prohibited under ACT planning laws.
358 Mesh (often called "Prison Mesh") refers to the measurements: 3" x 0.5" x 8 gauge. This creates extremely small apertures that prevent fingers from gaining a hold (anti-climb) and are too small for bolt cutters to enter (anti-cut). It is the gold standard for high-security assets.
Yes. We fabricate and install heavy-duty cantilever sliding gates and swing gates compatible with access control systems (keypads, fobs, GSM). We use industrial-grade motors designed for high duty cycles in logistics yards.
