Tubular & Security Fencing

Tubular steel is the sharp, powder-coated front-boundary fence that keeps kids and dogs in and lifts the street frontage. Step it up with greater height, anti-climb tops and heavier sections and it becomes true security fencing for sites where keeping people out matters. This is our commercial path too: schools, childcare, car parks and industrial sites, scoped to the security the job actually needs, not oversold.

How we quote it

Priced by the metre, itemised line by line.

The metres, the height and the material named, the post type and footing depth, gates, old-fence removal, and the boundary note if it is a dividing fence. Not one round number for a fence.

The 7-line quote
  1. 1 Metres, height and material. The price broken down by linear metres, the fence height, and the material named: the Colorbond colour, or the timber type and grade. Not one round number for "a fence".
  2. 2 Post type and footing depth. The post type, the footing depth, and that the posts are set in concrete, dug deeper for reactive clay and sloping ground. This is the line cowboys skip.
  3. 3 Panels, rails and fixings. The panel or paling spec, the rail layout, and the fixings. Lapped-and-capped, standard, or good-neighbour, stated so you know which side gets what.
  4. 4 Gates, itemised. Each gate its own line: pedestrian or driveway, the hardware, and whether automation is included or quoted separately once we see the opening.
  5. 5 Old-fence removal and tip fees. Removal, the old posts pulled or cut off, and the tip fees, each a line, never folded into a round number or sprung on you at the end.
  6. 6 The boundary-cost note. If it is a dividing fence, a plain-English note on how the cost splits with the neighbour, and a quote you can put in front of them.
  7. 7 Warranty and compliance. The 10-year posts and footings warranty in writing, the Colorbond materials warranty, and the AS 1926.1 compliance paperwork where a pool fence is involved.
If a quote doesn’t show these lines, you can’t compare it, and you don’t know what’s been cut.
How it runs

What happens, step by step.

1

Free measure and set-out

We measure the boundary, check the soil and the slope, mark the line and talk through material and height, then put a written quote in your hands.

2

Itemised quote

The honest quote: metres, height and material, the post type and footing depth, gates, old-fence removal, and the boundary-cost note if it is a dividing fence.

3

Materials and start date

You sign off the material, the colour and the scope. We order, confirm the install window, and book the dig, working in any neighbour and council notices.

4

Remove and set the posts

We take down the old fence, cart it away, then dig footings to depth and set the posts in concrete. The footings cure before anything hangs off them.

5

Panels, rails and gates

Once the footings are set, the panels or palings and rails go on, raked to follow the slope, and the gates are hung, automated and tested where fitted.

6

Clean-up and handover

We clear the site, walk you around the finished fence, hand over the warranty in writing and any pool-compliance paperwork, and set up the gate remotes.

Insured, covered, guaranteed

The paperwork behind the price.

Public liability to $20M, and a 10-year posts & footings, all in writing, all on request.

We hold a QBCC fencing licence in Queensland and a NSW Fair Trading licence across the border, and we carry public liability insurance, so you are covered on site. The guarantee is a 10-year written warranty on the posts and footings, the part that fails first, plus the genuine Colorbond and BlueScope manufacturer materials warranty where the fence is steel. All in writing, with exclusions named.

The cover, the guarantee, and how to check each one.
Questions, answered

Tubular & Security Fencing: common questions.

What is the difference between tubular and security fencing?
Tubular steel is the classic vertical-bar fence for a front boundary, looks sharp and powder-coated, and keeps kids and dogs in. True security fencing steps that up with greater height, anti-climb or welded-tab tops and heavier sections where keeping people out matters. We will quote the level of security the site actually needs, not oversell it.
Can you do it for a commercial or industrial site?
Yes. We do tubular, welded-mesh and security fencing for schools, childcare, car parks and industrial sites, including the compliance and access requirements those sites carry. The tubular and security service is our commercial path; tell us the site and we will scope it.
Can I get a matching gate?
Yes, and it is usually the same job. We make matching tubular pedestrian and driveway gates, manual or automated, so the gate and fence read as one. See the gates and automation service, or just ask for it on your fence quote.
