SELECTING THE RIGHT FENCE
Selecting the right fence for your environment is important. all fencing needs to be designed to withstand the wind conditions at the site where the fence is to be erected. We have tested our metal fencing in NZ to withstand the harsh wind conditions of the New Zealand environment.
The wind load on your fence at your site will depend on a number of factors, including where you live, where the fence is to be installed and the number of surrounding properties.
KAHU FENCE

POST AND RAILS
Metalcraft's posts are manufactured from 0.95mm BMT G550 steel gauge and rails from 0.75mm BMT G550 steel prepainted double sided NZ Steel COLORSTEEL® which are robust enough to eliminate the need for intermediate rails common to timber fencing. This affords clean lines and a tidy look on both sides of the fence.
The strength of steel is also beneficial for its resilience and durability; it will not warp or move over time. A further advantage is that NZ Steel COLORSTEEL® fencing eliminates the extra time and costs associated with post painting which is typical of other fencing options.
Post and rail lengths can also be roll formed to meet custom requirements, however this may necessitate that the fence sheets to be cut down to suit.
