Yes, fencing around your construction site is essential to comply with safety regulations and to protect the public and workers. According to the Health and Safety Executive, defining site boundaries with appropriate fencing is crucial. The type of fencing depends on the site’s nature and location.

At Wade Building Supplies, we offer durable and secure temporary fencing solutions designed to meet legal requirements while providing peace of mind. Whether your site is in a heavily populated area or needs to deter access from children, our range of fencing options ensures your site remains safe and compliant. Our experts can guide you in choosing the most suitable option for your needs.

Traffic management is critical to ensure safety on construction sites. Every year, accidents involving site vehicles cause fatalities and injuries. Proper planning and control can significantly reduce these risks.

At Wade Building Supplies, we support traffic management with products like robust plastic road barriers. Here are some essential tips for effective traffic management:

• Provide separate entry and exit points for pedestrians and vehicles.
• Use clear and visible walkways and crossings.
• Ensure good visibility at site exits.
• Prevent obstructions that force pedestrians into vehicle routes.
• Install barriers to segregate vehicles and pedestrians.

Our range of safety solutions can help create a safer environment for everyone on-site.

For round-top mesh fencing panels, we recommend purchasing sets that include one panel, two couplers (clips), and one rubber block fence foot as a standard. However, precise calculations ensure you have enough for your project.

Here’s a quick guide:

• For a continuous fence line, match the number of panels to the number of rubber block fence feet, then add one extra foot for the end.
• To calculate couplers, multiply the number of panels by two and subtract two.

For example, for 35 meters of fencing, you’ll need:

• 10 panels
• 11 rubber block feet
• 18 couplers

Our team at Wade Building Supplies can assist with precise calculations and provide the highest quality fencing accessories for your project.

The load on a lintel depends on several factors, including the type of wall, the weight of the roof and floor, and any additional loads above the opening.

Lintels must be installed level and securely bedded in bricklaying mortar. Ensure there is a 150 mm bearing area on each end for proper support.

Wade Building Supplies provides technical support for building projects, including assistance with lintel scheduling and specifications.
