Security fencing for commercial and industrial sites across West and South Yorkshire. Factories, warehouses, retail parks, depots, utilities, substations and construction compounds, installed to specification, to programme and to budget.
We are a fencing contractor, not a broker. Our own teams do the survey, the groundworks and the installation, so one company is accountable from first visit to handover and there is one number to ring if anything needs putting right.

Commercial security fencing that suits the site
What a retail park needs is not what a substation needs. Most commercial sites come down to three questions: how determined is the threat, does anyone need to see through the boundary, and how much does appearance matter at the entrance.
For most commercial and industrial boundaries, standard welded mesh panels or steel palisade do the job at sensible cost. Where the risk is higher, 358 mesh and high security palisade are the practical answers. Where the front of the site is customer facing we will often mix systems, something smarter at the entrance and heavier duty round the back.
We survey the site, tell you plainly what we would specify and why, then price it properly.


Commercial fencing installation
We handle everything from a short run of palisade around a compound to a full perimeter on a live industrial estate. Commercial fence panels, posts, gates and access control all come from the same team, so nothing falls between trades.
Work on occupied sites is planned around you. We are used to working alongside operations that cannot stop: keeping access open, keeping the site tidy, and phasing the work so a boundary is never left open overnight.
Gates to match any fencing system, manual, sliding or fully automated, are covered on our gate automation and access control pages.
Maximum security with an attractive look
358 Mesh Panels
Our maximum-security mesh panel system can consist of a single panel up to 5.2m in height. It is very secure and is widely specified by those wishing for a high security solution to protect important assets.
This fencing system combines attraction with excellent security. It is also frequently specified at heights up to 3.6m for use in parks, leisure facilities, recreational areas and commercial developments.
It’s ideal for a wide variety of high-security perimeter and access control applications where a heavy-duty security mesh design is needed to look attractive and work with CCTV.
The 4mm cross and line wire construction makes panels strong and versatile. This is a Home-Office-approved design widely used in prisons, military sites and secure compounds. The mesh spacing 76mm x 12.5mm is designed to be finger-proof, anti-climb and difficult to penetrate.


Strong, low-cost intruder protection
Steel Palisade
Steel palisade is a very popular fencing solution, providing a high level of intruder protection at a reasonable cost. It’s especially popular for industrial sites because of its high damage resistance and the fact that it is very difficult to climb. A range of height and security specifications are available depending on your need.
AF Palisade is usually supplied with triple-spiked W-shaped paling at the top for intruder prevention, but we can also supply safer D-shaped pales and other profiles on request.
This is a cost-effective solution to the perimeter problem. The fences are designed for strength and supplied with 8mm ‘shearcone’ security bolts as standard. Two horizontal rails are used for palisade fences up to 3m, with more being fitted above that height to maintain strength. The fencing is galvanised to BS ES ISO 1461:2009 as standard with a polyester coating option in a range of colours.
Attractive with excellent security
Standard mesh panels
Mesh panel systems offer flexibility and perimeter protection with minimal sight disruption. The quality of construction and expert installation ensures they will meet the most intensive security requirements. Suitable for sports facilities, playgrounds, industrial and commercial sectors.
Functional, modern construction systems ensure a strong and durable assembly combining security and aesthetics at an affordable price. All systems can be galvanised and provided with a polyester powder-coated finish in a range of RAL Colours. Posts and fixings are fully modular and can be adapted to suit different requirements and budgets with clamping strip or clip only fixings, all with tamper-proof bolts.


Naturally attractive and secure
Timber Fencing
A great way to add an appealing natural look to your premises without compromising on security. Our timber fences are formed from FSC-Certified timber sourced from managed resources and are pressure treated for a long life.
They are designed to retain a natural, attractive look while remaining strong and secure. They can also be made suitable for sloping and adverse terrain.
These attractive timber fences are popular in commercial and residential settings where presentation is important.
Who does the work
Airedale Fencing has been installing fencing across Yorkshire for over 35 years and has secured more than 300 schools alongside our commercial and industrial work. We are CHAS certified, CHAS-0024323, and SSIP assessed through PQS. Our installation team is Enhanced DBS checked and carries recognised site cards (CSCS, ADIA, ECS or GateSafe).
We do our own groundworks rather than subcontracting them, which is why we can hold a programme on a live site.
Where we work
We are based in Bradford and cover roughly an hour from BD10. That takes in Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield, Halifax, Harrogate and York, and reaches into South Yorkshire for Sheffield, Rotherham, Barnsley and Doncaster. There is more local detail on our commercial fencing in Leeds and commercial fencing in Bradford pages.
