Your One-Stop Wire Mesh Fence Supplier | POLYMETAL
Construction Temp Fence Panels from POLYMETAL are hot dipped galvanized temporary fences designed for serious construction and event sites. A temporary fence – often called temp fencing – looks simple, but choosing the wrong panel can turn into a dangerous risk trap on a live site: unstable barriers, weak welds or poor bases can cause accidents, fines and shutdowns.
POLYMETAL Construction Temp Fence Panels are engineered to be easy to install, relocate and reconfigure, while still resisting impact, climbing and harsh weather. Each system is made up of a temporary fence panel, feet (base), clamps and braces – all designed to work together as a stable kit that is fast to transport and assemble.
These panels are widely used on temporary construction sites and special events across Australia and New Zealand, and can also be configured as welded mesh temporary dog fence runs to control pets or guard dogs on site. By renting, hiring or buying Construction Temp Fence Panels direct from POLYMETAL, you avoid hidden weakness, gaps and oversights that cheaper products hide behind a nice paint finish.

Main View – Construction Temp Fence Panels
Temporary fence
This image shows a typical POLYMETAL Construction Temp Fence Panel: anti-climb mesh infill, fully welded frame and hot-dip galvanized finish. The wrong panel design here – thin pipe, weak welds or low zinc coating – quickly becomes a failure point under wind or crowd pressure.
Construction Temp Fence Panels Accessories
High-strength clamps keep adjacent Construction Temp Fence Panels tightly locked together. Cheap clamps with soft steel and thin galvanizing are a hidden loophole – they bend, strip or rust first and open the line for intruders or accidental collapse.
Braces are critical for wind stability and crowd control. Under-spec braces are one of the most dangerous risk patterns in Construction Temp Fence Panels – they look similar in photos, but on site they buckle and cause fence lines to fall toward workers or pedestrians.
Temporary fence accessories: base
Bases carry the entire load of the fence. Low-quality recycled plastic or poorly designed metal bases crack and tilt, creating a hidden hazard. POLYMETAL bases are engineered for weight, footprint and durability to reduce tipping and trip danger on busy sites.
Temporary fence assembled – 1 set Construction Temp Fence Panel comes with one base and one top clip.
This assembled set shows how each POLYMETAL Construction Temp Fence Panel, base and clamp work together as a stable unit. Cutting corners on any one element creates a gap between what you think you bought and the real protection your site actually has.
Temporary fence in colour is available
Custom colours are available to match builder branding, event sponsors or safety zoning, without sacrificing the galvanizing quality beneath the powder coat.
Production Flow – How POLYMETAL Controls Risk in Construction Temp Fence Panels
Pre hot dip galvanized wire drawing → cut wire → wire welded → corners of the mesh cut → pre hot dip galvanized pipes (ends of the horizontal pipes smashed) welded → polish the welds → paint anti-rust epoxy → spray silver powder coat on each weld → stacking → packaging.
Each step is designed to eliminate hidden defects: unprotected welds, thin zinc coverage and poor surface preparation are common mistakes that lead to rust streaks, wire breaks and panel failure after only a few projects.
Base production focuses on consistent weight, density and structural integrity. A base that looks correct but hides internal voids or brittleness is a dangerous illusion – it fails exactly when you have strong wind, crowds or equipment near the fence line.
Production Advantage – Why POLYMETAL Panels Avoid Costly Problems
We have a range of Construction Temp Fence Panels for every project solution. For example:
- 2.4 metre standard panels
- 2.4 metre heavy duty panels
- 3.5 metre high economy panels
- 2.4 metre chain wire panels
- Customised panels to suit your project and budget
All come with:
- Anti-climb mesh infilled
- 360° hand weld between the vertical and horizontal pipe
- Horizontal pipe ends crimped for increased strength
- Above industry benchmark thickness of galvanising
- Good corrosion resistance and anti-aging performance
- Acid and alkali resistance
- Smooth, neat surface and comfortable touch for handling
- Easy setup and take down
Cheaper Construction Temp Fence Panels often remove one or more of these features, creating small but critical weaknesses that end in panel collapse, public injury or regulatory warning. POLYMETAL keeps each protective element in place so your site keeps its safety edge.
Where POLYMETAL Construction Temp Fence Panels Are Used
Temporary fencing is perfect for temporary construction and security fencing, such as:
- Commercial uses
- School board portable site safety
- Site security and restricted access zones
- Crowd control / vendor security
- Residential construction sites
- Restoration and fire-damaged sites
- Special events (concerts, festivals, cultural events, parades and sporting events)
On all of these projects, a fence line that fails becomes an immediate crisis: injured people, damaged vehicles, stolen tools, project delays and reputational loss. Choosing POLYMETAL Construction Temp Fence Panels helps you break this pattern of avoidable problems.
Packaging & Shipping – Preventing Damage Before Your Panels Arrive
Packaging & Shipping
Temporary fencing panels: nylon bandage on four corners, then stacked on a steel pallet.
Feet: nylon bandage on four corners, then on steel pallet.
Clamp: packed in carton box, then on a pallet.
We can also pack Construction Temp Fence Panels to match your specific site or rental fleet requirements.
Correct packing is your last protection against hidden damage: panels that arrive bent, scratched or missing parts quickly turn into on-site cost, waste and project delays. POLYMETAL’s controlled packaging reduces these risks and keeps your Construction Temp Fence Panels ready for immediate rental, hire or installation.
By choosing POLYMETAL Construction Temp Fence Panels and working from clear specifications instead of vague “standard” temp fencing, you close dangerous gaps, avoid expensive pitfalls and protect your project from the kinds of fencing mistakes that only show up when wind, crowds or inspectors put your perimeter to the test.
