Metal railings, fencing & gates
We supply and fit metal railings, fencing and gates for homes, schools, car parks and commercial sites: boundary railings, mesh and palisade security fencing, caged compounds inside buildings and car parks, pedestrian and vehicle gates, and handrails to steps and ramps.
Everything is galvanised as standard, powder-coated to a RAL colour where wanted, and fixed properly — posts concreted in or base-plated and resin-anchored to suit the ground.

Worth knowing before you book anyone
Planning rules on height
Next to a road or public footpath, fences and railings over 1 metre usually need planning permission; elsewhere the limit is generally 2 metres. Conservation areas and listed properties differ — we flag it at survey.
Galvanised, painted, or both
Galvanising protects the steel from rust; powder coating adds the colour. For anything outdoors we galvanise first and coat second — paint alone on bare steel is a maintenance bill waiting to happen.
Fixing to the ground
Posts are either concreted into the ground or base-plated and anchored to existing concrete. Which is right depends on what is under the surface — part of what we check at survey.
Metal railings & fencing: your questions answered
How high can a fence or railing be without planning permission?
As a rule of thumb: up to 1 metre where it fronts a road or public path, up to 2 metres elsewhere. Listed buildings and conservation areas have tighter rules — check before ordering, and we will confirm at survey.
Do you make gates to match existing railings?
Yes — gates and replacement sections are fabricated to match the existing style, bar spacing and finish as closely as the originals allow.
Can you install a secure cage inside a car park or unit?
Yes. Mesh compounds and cages with lockable gates — for bike storage, plant, stock or parcels — anchored to the slab and sized to your space.
