Security Fencing

Security fencing gets quoted from the site, not from a price sheet, because the drivers are physical: linear footage, height, material and gauge, anti-climb detailing, gate count and automation, baseplating versus dug footings, and equipment access. We walk your perimeter at a free on-site assessment, you get your quote fast, and the number we quote is the number you pay.

Against a determined intruder: welded steel with tight anti-climb spacing or small-aperture welded mesh. Nothing to grip, hard to cut, miserable to climb. That's the high security fencing tier, and it's what we spec for critical sites. For everyday theft deterrence, heavy-gauge chain link with a bottom rail and a controlled gate covers most North DFW lots. The honest answer depends on what you're protecting, which is why we ask that first.

Six feet is the working minimum for deterrence, eight feet is the common commercial spec, and critical sites go taller or add anti-climb toppings. Past a point, height helps less than geometry: tight spacing and clean faces stop climbers that raw height doesn't. City rules on fence height vary across North DFW, so we confirm what your site allows at the free on-site assessment.

Often, yes. Security-grade chain link is a different product from backyard fabric: heavier gauge wire, tighter mesh, a bottom rail or buried tension wire so it can't be lifted, and posts set deeper. It protects long perimeters for less than welded steel and upgrades well as needs change. When it's enough, we say so instead of selling you steel.

An anti climb fence is designed so there's nothing to use: pickets too close together for a foothold, mesh openings too small for fingers, smooth vertical faces, no exposed rails on the outside, and fasteners that can't be backed out. It's engineering rather than intimidation, and it's the difference between a fence that looks serious and one that is.

Yes. Slide, cantilever and swing security gates, framed in our own welding shop and hung to close and latch every single time. We prep entries for keypads, card readers, intercoms and cameras, and we coordinate with your access-control or security integrator so the fence and the electronics arrive as one working system.

Commercial fence work usually touches city review, and the rules differ across North DFW: height limits, setbacks from rights-of-way, sometimes screening requirements written into the site plan. Multifamily and HOA-governed properties add covenants on top. We confirm exactly what your city and property require at the free on-site assessment, prepare the drawings, and provide the certificates of insurance property managers ask for.

See-through steel or chain link lets cameras and patrols watch the lot, so intrusions get seen and recorded. Solid screening hides valuable inventory, and also hides an intruder once they're inside. Warehouses usually want visibility; retail and multifamily often want screening on some runs and sightlines on others. We'll walk your perimeter and call it run by run.

Often. Bottom rails to stop lifting, tighter fabric, reinforced and rehung gates, welded repairs to damaged steel, and anti-climb extensions or barbed wire where the structure can carry them and local rules allow them, which we confirm before proposing anything. Sometimes the honest call is that the existing fence isn't worth armoring, and we'll tell you that too.

Yes. Estate perimeters with welded steel, anti-climb spacing and controlled gate entry: commercial discipline with a residential finish. Deterrence doesn't have to look like a distribution center, and in an estate neighborhood it shouldn't. That's the point of building the steel ourselves.

Galvanized and powder-coated steel runs for decades with basic care, and commercial chain link fabric is a long-haul product when it's tensioned and anchored right. Gates and hardware age first because they move every day. Posts decide the rest, which is why ours go deep in concrete or get baseplated to sound slab.

Less than you'd think, but not zero: keep gate hinges and closers adjusted, check fabric tension after storms, touch up coating scratches before rust starts, and keep vegetation off the line so it can't hide a breach. We service what we build, and repairs come back welded, not patched.

Every security fence carries our workmanship warranty, on top of top quality materials. If a post moves, a weld fails or a gate stops latching because of how we built it, we come back and make it right. One call, no runaround.
