Steel Palisade Mesh Fencing
We supply and install steel palisade mesh fencing from 1.8m to 3m high, ideal for sloping or uneven sites. Posts are set in concrete or base-plated for existing foundations. Finishes include hot-dipped galvanisation or powder coating in RAL colours to match corporate branding. This solution secures premises for businesses, schools, and industrial sites across Somerset.
Security Gates
Our security gates include swing, bi-folding, cantilevered, and tracked options, clad in mesh, palisade, or solid steel. Features include shrouded locks, keypads, and panic push pads. Installations cater to factories, schools, and commercial premises, ensuring secure access while maintaining aesthetic consistency with surrounding fencing systems.
Crash Barrier Services
We install corrugated crash barriers to protect people, buildings, and plant equipment. Solutions include single/double-tier beams, flexible posts, and integrated handrails. Applications span factory yards, loading bays, and retail parks. High-visibility finishes enhance safety in industrial environments across the South West.
Anti Climb Devices
Anti-climb systems include razor wire, rotating barriers, and wall spikes to deter unauthorised access. Installations comply with safety regulations and include warning signage. These devices enhance security for fences, walls, and building perimeters, particularly in high-risk areas like industrial sites and schools.
Mesh Fencing Services
We provide V-mesh, 358 prison mesh, and expanded metal fencing for applications ranging from sports facilities to high-security sites. Available in heights from 0.9m to 5m, finishes include galvanisation or powder coating. Mesh systems offer low maintenance, durability, and visual clarity while resisting climbing attempts.

The Armco barrier at one of our sites was heavily damaged by our refuse collection contractor. I contacted Callaghan Security Fencing & Gates. I am very impressed with the service provided. The repair was completed to a very high standard within 48hrs of initial contact, at a very reasonable rate. I highly recommend them & will continue to utilise their services.

This is the second great job that John has done for us. He and his team are experienced and committed to providing the best. This second job, a long curving length of estate railings, which was an unfamiliar brief, was achieved on time and budget, and which has given us a fence, that will not only last a very long time but that is also a joy to behold. Thank you John, Andrew and Ryan.
