Security Caging and Fencing

Product Details

Modular secure zoning for industrial workplaces

Industrial sites often need secure areas inside larger operational spaces. This may include stock cages, restricted access zones, maintenance stores, plant rooms, tool storage areas, high-value goods areas and controlled work areas. Without a defined enclosure, access can be difficult to manage and assets can remain exposed.

Security Caging and Fencing provides a modular caging system for creating protected zones within warehouses, factories, logistics centres and commercial facilities. The system uses posts and mesh panels to form secure enclosure layouts around the required area. This makes it suitable for new projects, site upgrades and changing operational layouts. For bespoke site layouts, heights, widths and configurations, contact our team for tailored advice.

Configurable post and mesh panel system

Workplace layouts rarely stay the same forever. Because of this, Security Caging and Fencing uses a modular system that can be configured during on-site installation. Posts and twin wire mesh panels combine to create secure cage runs, access points and enclosed areas around the site requirement.

The system is designed around maximum post centres of 2500mm. Finished height options are 2050mm and 3050mm, allowing specifiers and facilities teams to choose the correct enclosure height for the risk, asset value and operational setting. This gives the system enough flexibility for standard secure zones, taller enclosure requirements and site-specific caging layouts.

Twin wire mesh panels for visibility and control

Secure areas need protection, but they often still need visibility. The system uses twin wire 656 mesh panels with a 200mm x 50mm aperture. This gives the enclosure a clear visual profile while still creating a defined physical boundary around restricted or protected areas.

This visibility helps supervisors, operatives and facilities teams monitor the enclosed area without opening the cage. It also supports safer movement around the enclosure, because people can see activity, stored goods and access points more easily. The result is a secure zone that does not feel hidden from the wider workplace.

Access and emergency egress options

Secure caging must control access without preventing safe exit. Security Caging and Fencing can integrate a range of access and locking options depending on the site’s security requirement. These options include gates, padlocks, digi-locks, euro-cylinder locks, emergency push pads and monkey tail bolts.

This allows each enclosure to match the level of control required. A stock cage may only need padlock access, while a higher-use operational zone may need a more controlled gate arrangement. Emergency egress options also help support safer use where people may need to exit from inside the enclosure.

Mild steel posts and modular fixing detail

A secure enclosure depends on the strength and consistency of its post system. Posts are fabricated from 60mm x 60mm mild steel square hollow section and supplied with baseplates, pre-thread fence clip connections and floor anchors. This creates a practical fixing arrangement for modular cage installation.

Each post is fixed using 4x Safety Plus floor anchors. This gives installation teams a clear fixing specification and supports stable installation on suitable floor slabs. Because of this, the system can create secure zones without requiring a permanent internal room or fully welded bespoke enclosure.

Finish options for different site requirements

Industrial caging systems need to suit both the operating environment and the wider site appearance. Security Caging and Fencing is available in three finish options: galvanised posts with black mesh, yellow posts with black mesh, or custom colour options.

Galvanised posts provide a practical finish for general industrial use. Yellow posts improve visual identification in busy environments where people and vehicles operate nearby. Custom colour options can also support site branding, zoning plans or project-specific visibility requirements.

Where Security Caging and Fencing is specified

Security Caging and Fencing is specified where businesses need controlled access, asset protection or defined internal zones. Typical applications include warehouses, factories, logistics centres, distribution hubs, manufacturing sites, fulfilment centres, maintenance stores, tool storage areas, stock cages, plant areas and restricted work zones.

It is especially useful where the site needs a secure area without building a permanent room. This makes it suitable for landlords, facilities managers, warehouse operators, contractors, H&S managers and operations teams who need adaptable protection inside larger premises.

Related site protection products

Security Caging and Fencing helps define and control restricted areas. In high-traffic vehicle zones, site teams may also need dedicated impact protection around the enclosure, depending on the traffic risk and layout.

Where cages sit close to forklift routes, loading areas or busy MHE routes, Armco Safety Barriers or Polymer Safety Barriers may help protect the enclosure from vehicle impact. This should be assessed as part of the wider site risk review, not added as a default requirement.

Supporting compliance and duty of care

Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, employers must ensure, so far as reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare of employees at work. The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 also require workplace traffic routes to be suitable for the people and vehicles using them, and HSE guidance advises separating pedestrians and vehicles where possible.

Security Caging and Fencing provides a practical physical control measure for creating access-controlled zones, separating restricted areas and protecting assets inside industrial workplaces. For H&S managers, facilities managers, specifiers, contractors and operations teams, specifying modular security caging helps demonstrate a proactive approach to workplace safety, security and site organisation. The result is clearer access control, better asset protection and safer movement across the site.
