Tubular Railings Perimeter Fencing Systems

Integrated Fencing is a reliable and well-established supply and installation company for a wide range of perimeter and security fencing systems as well as gates, barriers and automation. Our tubular railing fencing system gives that traditional upright railed look that has been enclosing parks, cemeteries and schools for as long as most of us can remember.

As well as the traditional look, tubular fencing can be adapted and customised with decorative railing tops to make a great-looking fence for private properties and community landscaping.

Work with Our Tubular Railings Fencing System

The standard system has been a feature of parks and other public access areas for decades. Much of it that you see around the UK has been in place for generations and still functions as well as it did on day one. The longevity of the system is beyond doubt.

Typically used in situations where low to medium security is needed, it consists of a series of pre-fabricated steel fencing panels secured between upright posts. The upright tubular bars are secured by 2 horizontal sections with drilled holes to accommodate them. They are then welded in place. They usually have mitred tops, but can also be pointed as an anti-climb measure.

The benefit of this method of fence construction is that it is very robust, minimises the number of brackets and fixings used, and is therefore resistant to tampering and vandalism. On-costs post installation often amounts to little more than an occasional coat of paint.

Standard pre-fabricated panels are available in heights of between 1 and 3.0m, but as with all of our systems, we can supply bespoke options according to your requirements

Colours Available

Our standard and therefore most cost-effective colours are: Green RAL 6005 or Black RAL 9005 but we are able to powder coat in any standard or non-standard colour on the RAL colour scale. This means that bespoke landscaping schemes and corporate branding colours can be incorporated into the overall design. Give us a call to discuss your requirements.

Installing and Mounting Tubular Railing Systems

The most stable option is bedding the upright posts into a solid concrete foundation. When we do this we operate to British Standards 1722.  Sometimes this is not possible due to the presence of service cables and pipes so the alternative and perfectly acceptable option are to use base plates and bolts.

In domestic situations, this type of fencing can be seen mounted on low walls between brick pillars. The top of the vertical rails often includes decorative design features as opposed to the normal pointed or mitred tops.

Matching gates in a variety of styles and designs can be easily incorporated. Gates with a latch for padlocking are often the gate of choice for practical reasons as well as economic ones.

Frequently Asked Questions

The intent of all handrails is to provide a handgrip for people in need of support. If a railing cannot be securely gripped it is unsafe. While how easy it is to grasp focuses on the profile or shape and dimensions of a handrailing, the spacing of the handrail from the wall, its height, continuity etc. also interfere with the ability of a person to grasp a hand railing securely.

Longer Lasting – structures built with tube and Kee Klamp fittings last up to seven times longer than a solution.
Easier to Install – When installing Kee Klamps, a simple hex key is the only tool required to create a strong, rigid joint.
Maintenance – Tubular railings are easier to maintain. If a fitting or section is damaged, a replacement part can be ordered and installed easily by a contractor. No requirement for welding or costly repairs.

Tubular hand railing uses a standard-size tube and a wide range of malleable iron ‘socket’ fittings that slip over the tube and are fastened in place using a hexagon key to tighten the recessed set screw. This system is ideal for the top of retaining walls, along the side of retaining walls, along the side of steps and as handrails for ramps, as well as many other uses.

Street furniture has lots of benefits and can offer visitors to your site or the public added benefits. Seating can provide a place for staff to sit and enjoy your outside space or a resting place for elderly or disabled visitors.

It did not go unnoticed that you were put in a very difficult predicament by the failings of our ground works contractor but despite this, you and your team stuck at it working late nights and weekends to help us achieve the completion date. It’s very rare to see a Managing Director rolling his sleeves up to help his team out but you did this on numerous occasions in atrocious weather conditions and on weekends and for this we cannot thank you enough.

This leads me on to your site team who worked extremely close with our site team for the duration of the project and despite the extreme weather and ground conditions they simply got on with it. They’re attitude and willingness to complete the job in hand is fantastic, this together with the standard of work produced all makes for a winning team.

I have worked with numerous quality men over the last 30 years, and this has to be up there as one of the best. Please pass on our thanks to your team. Thanks again for your efforts on the project and we wish you every success in the future and hope your business grows. It has been a pleasure working with you on YGGT and we look forward to the prospect of working with you in the near future.
