Industrial fencing is not residential or commercial chain link scaled up. It is a different specification entirely. Heavier wire, larger posts, deeper footings, and security toppers are all standard. An industrial fence must hold up when a forklift clips a corner post. It has to resist a vehicle driving into it. It needs to stay standing after years of direct equipment contact.
Fences R Us installs industrial fencing at manufacturing facilities, equipment yards, substations, and utility sites across Central Florida. Every job is spec'd on-site based on the threat environment and use conditions.
Industrial fencing is part of the Commercial & Chain Link Fencing service. For security topping options, see Barbed Wire Topping. For entry gates at industrial sites, see Chain Link Gates.

Why Industrial Fence Is a Different Build Than Commercial
The difference is not just wire gauge. The full system is heavier at every point. Heavier wire puts more tension on the posts. More tension requires larger diameter posts. Larger posts require deeper footings. Deeper footings require more concrete. The entire system scales up together.
Installing commercial-grade components on an industrial site is a common mistake by less experienced contractors. The fence looks similar but fails faster under the kind of contact and stress industrial sites produce. Fences R Us specs and builds industrial fence to industrial standards on every industrial job.
Where Industrial Fencing Is Used in Central Florida
Manufacturing and Warehouse Sites
Perimeter fencing around manufacturing buildings and storage yards. Heavy-gauge fence handles forklift and equipment contact without post failure. Gates are spec'd for vehicle clearance.
Power and Utility Substations
Power substations and utility infrastructure require specific fence height and topper requirements that vary by utility and regulatory body. Fences R Us works from the utility's spec sheet on substation perimeter jobs.
Fuel and Chemical Storage
Secondary containment perimeters and facility boundaries on fuel depots and chemical storage sites. Fence height and mesh type are often specified by the site operator or insurance carrier.
Equipment and Vehicle Yards
Heavy equipment storage and vehicle marshaling yards need a fence that holds up when equipment backs into it. Industrial posts and heavier gauge wire take that contact without bending out of plumb.
