FAQs
Do I need any signage on my temporary fence?
It is not enough to simply have a physical barrier. You must have adequate signage that explicitly tells others to stay out and stay clear. Though it may be obvious; for insurance purposes, it will significantly reduce your liability if you communicate a clear message. The general rule which is recognized by most authorities is a sign every 20′. This may be a little overkill but if someone can say they didn’t see the sign; they didn’t know it was an issue to access the site.
How big should my gate(s) be?
Narrower gates are better for maintenance. However, make sure you have a large enough gate for access coming and going. The opening should never be clogged which could prevent access for emergency vehicles. Gates should be operational by one person. Try to avoid wheels dragging on the ground. Gates should be cantilevered so that the gate swings freely over temporary rock surfaces.
How tall does my temporary fence need to be?
The taller the fence the better. Not only is it difficult to climb but it is a psychological barrier. Temporary fencing is typically available in 6′ and 8′ heights. Check your local ordinances as most will not allow fencing taller than 6′ You should also make sure the location of your temporary fence is permitted so that you don’t block line of sight for driveways and intersections.
