Securing a Metropolitan Police Repair Compound
WLS RIVUS, WIMBLEDON
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Integrated Fencing Ltd was approached by RIVUS Fleet Solutions to secure a Metropolitan Police Repair Compound. The project had a tight timeline, as the client needed to accommodate the specific security requirements of their newly appointed Metropolitan Police maintenance contract.
THE CHALLENGE
The client required a high standard of security to ensure the safety of the compound, particularly in vulnerable and publicly accessible areas. The solution needed to integrate seamlessly with the existing infrastructure and meet stringent security specifications.
Our Solution
Integrated Fencing Ltd implemented a comprehensive security solution to meet the client’s requirements. Key elements included:
BOUNDARY SECURITY
- Retrofitted the existing fence posts with three rows of razor tape and a galvanised rota spike anti-climb system.
- Installed 3m high SR2-rated 358 mesh fencing to reinforce the most vulnerable and publicly accessible areas of the site.
GATE INSTALLATION AND INTEGRATION
- Designed, approved and installed 3no single-leaf gates, including one with an emergency push-to-exit pad for compliance with safety regulations.
- Installed 2no 3m high, 6m wide bi-folding speed gates at strategic locations within the yard to facilitate segregation and efficient access control.
INFRASTRUCTURE WORKS
To support the gate systems, Integrated Fencing Ltd carried out all necessary infrastructure work, including associated ducting runs and base preparations. These foundational elements ensured the smooth installation and long-term reliability of the gate systems.
This tailored approach ensured the security of the site while meeting the unique operational requirements of the Metropolitan Police and RIVUS Fleet Solutions.
PROJECT OUTCOME
The project was completed on schedule, delivering a robust and reliable security solution tailored to the client’s needs. Integrated Fencing Ltd ensured the compound met the Metropolitan Police’s security standards while enhancing operational efficiency for RIVUS Fleet Solutions.

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL
“WLS were pleased to appoint Integrated Fencing as main contractor for specialist security fencing and gate works at a high security site in Wimbledon, London.
After searching for several months for a suitable contractor, we invited Richard Sparrow to meet with us on site where we discussed the project brief and specifications. Richard fully understood our objectives and was able to advise on detail and design, resulting in his quotation and proposal.
Integrated Fencing Ltd were competitively priced and showed complete commitment to the project, ensuring that a site foreman was present every day, and that regular project manager meetings took place. Richard hosted weekly site meetings with WLS, updating us on project progress and estimated completion dates for each element of the project. A major advantage to WLS was that Richard was able to take the project from start to finish, including design work, providing a full groundworks package, project management, and being present for client handovers. I would strongly recommend engaging Integrated Fencing Ltd for all works relating to specialist fencing.”
