When you want to install a commercial fence, you have to consider so many things. It requires proper planning to achieve an effective and efficient result for your commercial fence installation project. Such a fence must bring together factors such as aesthetics, security, safety, and cost-effectiveness in the right combination. 

At G’s Fence Company of San Antonio, we have created this guide to make it easier for you to have the perfect fence for your commercial property. 

Questions to Ask

Before you get started with your search for materials, contractors, and consideration of factors, it is recommended to find answers to the following questions:

• Will the materials withstand the local weather?
• Will the fence provide the security and safety you seek for your property?
• Does the fence fit into your budget?
• How long will the fence last?

Once you have determined the answers to these questions, you should know that a commercial fence must provide a wide range of benefits. These benefits include:

• Security
• Safety
• Privacy
• Aesthetics
• Access control
• Adding property value

1. Choosing the Right Material

There are different fence materials and they serve different purposes. It is important to do a little research to ensure you are getting the right fence. For example, vinyl and wooden fences provide excellent privacy, but a tall chain link fence offers greater security. While a wrought iron fence looks more appealing, it may not offer the privacy you desire. 

The key positives of some of the commonly used commercial fence materials are as follows:

Chain Link Fence

• Ease of installation
• Cost-effective
• Effective at keeping critters out
• Effective at keeping low-moderate intrudes out
• Highly customizable
• Low-maintenance and highly durable

Decorative Chain Link

• More attractive
• Extra level of protection to increase the fence’s lifespan

Wrought Iron

• Durable and long-lasting in all weather conditions
• Exceptional strength and high level of security
• Exceptionally tough
• Timeless looks
• Adds high value to your property

2. Consider Local Conditions

While you may prefer the looks of a certain material for your commercial fence, it may not be suited for your local conditions. 

• If your property is in a windy area or on the waterfront, consider chain link
• If your area experiences high summer temperatures or rain, consider vinyl

3. Hire the Right Contractor

When it comes to fence installation, whether commercial or residential, you should hire professional services instead of handling the project yourself. Never choose the first contractor you come across. Again, do a little research on their experience with the materials of your choice and their market reputation. 

4. Factors

It is further recommended to consider the following factors when installing a commercial fence:

• Security
• Looks
• Environment
